The text states that men feel more emotional pain after a breakup than women do.

Infact verdict: Mixed (55/100).

The claim that men feel more emotional pain after a breakup than women is supported by a study from Lancaster University, which suggests that men discuss heartbreak more and may be as emotionally affected as women.

The study and expert opinions indicate a tendency rather than a universal truth, making the claim plausible but not conclusively proven.
