A new survey has found that men take longer to decide if they want to end a relationship as compared to women.
The findings of the British poll showed that women take just 6 days to make a decision on breaking up, but men drag the decision out for over a month, the New York Daily News reported.
According to the survey, while men spend two-thirds of that time worrying about the decision and deciding the most tactful way to break the news to their partner, women make a snap decision based on emotional honesty.
The study also showed that many men prefer to stay in an unhappy relationship for 6 months if they think that it may work out in the end.
