Do men need to have closure when a relationship ends? If things ended on a bad note, do they feel guilty and feel the need to apologize or clear things up to remove the guilt before they move on?

I think it depends on the exact circumstances of the break up and also the kind of feelings that they had for each other as well.

some do, while some don't, it actually depends on what was in the mix for the parties involved

everyone needs closure at the end of a relationship, there are questions left unanswered, a lot of guilt and pain that needs to heal, but a proper relationship o!!!! not a wam bam!!!!!

Hell Yeah ! Everyone needs closure , ! Some people don't even realise they do, and wonder why they can't wait to meet up with an ex,

the guys here in my office say that men don't need closure, that only women do.

I think both men and women need some degree of closure. Especially if, for example, a lady suddenly stopped calling her boyfriend, or accepting his calls. Some people break-up by ignoring their partners, because they can't face telling them it's over. The feel if they ignore them long enough, they'll get the message.

Of course they'll get the message - but without knowing what went wrong, how can they then move on with their lives, and strike up new relationships? In such instances, closure's definitely needed!

i think they do, esp when it wasn't a clean break, with all questions answered and all avenues explored.

Closure is important to close the door to the past and open a new door to the future.

lol ur acting like men are not human beigns, of course every one need closure if its a relationship where you love is involved. Altho if its just a sex relationship or the person keeps messing up then I guess u wont need closure when u dont hear from the person agaiN. If ur boyfriend is an ass and beats u and u cant wait to get rid of him

atilla:

. . . If your boyfriend . . .beats u and u cant wait to get rid of him put the sorry excuse for a man in prison

fixed

Everyone needs closure
