Even if he’s just not that into you, it might take the guy a while to break off a relationship. When it comes to breaking up, most women pull the plug within a week—while men drag out the decision for over a month, according to a recent British survey conducted by Palamedes PR.
The survey asked 500 unmarried couples how they would hypothetically handle a rift in their current relationship. A whopping 53% of men said they would need to do “some serious soul searching” to decide whether or not to break up, compared to just 23% of women. Men were also more likely than women to discuss their relationship problems with a close friend or family member before ending things. Call it female intuition, but it looks like we make up our minds pretty quickly when it comes to a split.
