Break-ups and moving on

I know real life isn’t like Devdas where the lovers, if separated, must spend all their lives boozing away in grief! But I have to admit, I do find it weird when couples separate and move on so quickly.

A friend of a friend (Pakistani guy) didn’t get to marry his love interest because her family didn’t approve of it and he ended up falling in “love” with another girl within 2-3 months of ending the previous relationship. I thought that was really strange and that he didn’t truly love his ex … but the expectation that he would have been completely devastated to the point that he refused to move on is also unrealistic.

So what is your outlook on this, let’s say, experimentation with romantic relationships? (if that made any sense!)

One word. Hormones. For whichever party that chooses to experiment that quickly.
