I'm not sure they are. I personally think that women and men can often have different ways of expressing themselves. Some men may appear to be coping well with a break up, when internally they are struggling. I think this also applies to women. On the other hand, men could be very open about the difficulties they are having as a result of their breakup. Women tend to express their distress more readily than males do, however i dont think this is set in stone. It all depends on the individual.

Because they think they have an advantage in meeting other girls and introduce their feelings with many tactics or tricks many girls fall in.

They aren't, it depends only on the type of person and the depth of relationship.
Remember, looks and behavior can be deceptive, it is possible that some are jus acting like they're fine and that the breakup is easier for them, even when it's actually not.
Mostly, guys prefer hiding their emotions and actually it doesn't matters if it's a guy or a gal, breakups are always more difficult for the one who loves more.

It's actually not that much easier on guys. In fact, polls do show that men take break ups just as hard as women do. The difference is that male-culture prevents men from expressing themselves especially if it's sadness or melancholy. That's not to say that women can hide their feelings too because sadness is completely gender neutral.

Who said breakups are easier for guys than women? They may appear to be on the face of it, but its just different people’s ways of dealing with it. In public one man may act like he isn’t too bothered, but he may still cry behind closed doors. Another man withdraw himself while others may overreact by partying, drinking or acting out, overcompensating for their grief or sadness. Without looking into people’s minds you will never truly know what goes on, but just because someone may act one way, doesn’t mean it’s a true reflection of how that person is really feeling inside.

Actually, it is just the same for both men and women. It just so happen that men are better in hiding their feelings because of their masculinity. Maybe it's just that it.

I doubt that. Anybody who has truly invested in the relationship will feel the pain, it is possible that men process through hurt in a different manner than women

I truly feel that is a misconception. I have seen male friends of mine suffer through break ups. I have seen my own ex put up a jovial face on the outside and move on (which hurt a lotttt), but then when i met him a year later, he told me he still liked me and had never moved on. They dont show it to the rest of the world. They definitely dont show it to their exes. But if a friend were to talk to them when they are fairly drunk and honest, thats when you'd see how truly hurt they are.
Women tend to take the initial few weeks to get all their emotions sorted - cry it out, shout it out.. and then start healing. Men tend to zone out and dont confront their emotions- and hence usually take longer to heal.

Break ups can be difficult for both guys and women. Some people show it more, some people don't and this is why people believe that one person is struggling more than the other, but it isn't always the case.
I still love my ex. Should I feel this way?
