Abstract: This paper aims to explore gender differences in reactions to romantic relationship dissolutions. Within the body of research on relationship breakups, attachment theory is frequently mentioned. Empirical data on adult attachment styles and how they relate to gender differences and reactions to separations will also be explored. The issue of gender is prevalent in psychological literature. Such classification regarding reactions to relationship breakups is ambiguous and research should turn to individuals and relationships when exploring breakups.
