Sonia and Simon · Why Your “Type” Is Ruining Your Love Life | Paul Eastwick · 24 May 2026 podcast

This is sort of the moment of truth when they're trying to figure out, like, what are we to each other?

Is she going to go off and get married to somebody else or is she going to come back to him?

And this is these moments are like some of the biggest, most intense moments that happen in relationships.

We feel like you've reached this tipping point and you're going to go one way or the other.

Men and women both experience these kinds of moments.

They can arouse some of the strongest emotions that we have.

So, so I think that is a pretty beautiful depiction of, you know, what happens when people kind of feel like they've reached the edge and it's like, I can't give any more of myself to this possibility.

I need to know if this thing is happening or not.

So, so in that sense, I do find it compelling.

That's really interesting.

So generally speaking, what the research tends to suggest is that men are just a touch more eager to form relationships than women.

It's a small gender difference.

Um, but, but, and we actually see this across the board too.

Like if you look at some of the health outcomes, men just, they get more of the health benefits of being in the, in a relationship relative to women.

Women still get health benefits too.

Um, you know, wellbeing benefits.

There are many things that people get out of being in a close relationship, but those things tend to accrue, um,

to men a little bit more.

So, but again, this is such a small gender difference that I would tend not to cast aspersions at any movie that showed it in reverse with the woman sort of wondering like, what are we, we need to define things.

I think the popular idea in the culture that's completely wrong is that, oh, she's always looking for commitment and he's looking to resist that commitment.
