Granted, I was surprised to learn that Cassie moved on so quickly, but if you really think about it, and think also about how women are wired (I just talked about this above), the emotional detachment likely began quite some time before the break-up. A woman who is emotionally unavailable is not about to give another guy the time of day and this is why I believe that she was mentally and emotionally gone before she physically departed.

As far as the overlapping goes, if indeed she was emotionally detached before the relationship ended, it’s possible that one door was open before the other officially closed. Now I believe we should do unto others as we’d have them do unto us just as much as I believe that you reap what you sow. If you sow seeds of discord, discord will find you, if you sow seeds of mistreating the one who loves you, don’t be shocked when they aren’t crying in solitude for 90 days when the break up happens, but is instead glowing on a yacht with someone who is delighted to be exclusive with her.

So, the outrage and claims of betrayal, although I also understand that she’s simply a woman who was and is done. I get it seems out of the norm, but it happens just like a guy will string one woman along for years only to break up and be ready to marry the next woman within 6 months of courtship, (again, it’s definitely funky, but I suppose it’s fair).

But, seriously, a man typically has plan B lined up when he begins to feel like plan A isn’t working, so I can see how her immediacy has induced some bruising of the ego and wagging tongues from the public because on most occasions women don’t move that abruptly. Now unless a man is deeply more spiritual than the average guy, there will be some overlapping and there aren’t breaks in between courtships. I heard an older man say, “a man is never off, he’s just off with you” in response to a woman referring to her relationship as “on again, off again” and he’s right!

But the real question, is what’s good for the goose really good for the gander? We live in a world where there is nothing new under the sun and there has always been a double standard for so many topics related to men and women. That is exactly what this is, a double standard. Not because a woman cannot move on swiftly after a courtship ends, but because she is expected not to. And since this woman did, she’s being questioned when we all know most would turn a blind eye to a man doing the exact same thing.

I’m curious to know reader’s perspective on this topic of moving on swiftly. Xpress your thoughts! Until next time, Xoxo.
