A Bloody Thorn?

After going through a specific kind of break up you went through, how does it feel in the end?
I've been thinking about how women especially go on with their lives after splitting up with a loved one.
They all seem to sob and feel numb for a few weeks/months, but later on they find someone new and content with their love life again... in movies.

However, I don't think that's how most breakups go because it's so difficult to move on when you didn't want this to happen, yet it did and you have no other choice but to slowly move on.
 That person who is going through it probably feels isolated, and discouraged. Maybe even numb, just a lifeless body walking through its everyday life, oblivious to how fast the days go by.
The more I put thought into it, the more I realize how the feeling of love is bi-polar and difficult to maintain. 
Yet it's still so powerful and addicting, you want more but it's so dangerous. Love is like a rose, you have to hold onto it however you get hurt if you touch the thorns. That's what it must be like, handling a rose and pressing a finger into the thorns, that's how a break up feels. Painful.
Except, how does the other person feel after the break up? 
Happy? Relieved? 
Some people could even feel the opposite, depressed. Breakups aren't always done with evil intentions, maybe it's done to be cautious of the future before it becomes more detrimental.
Perhaps there's still that half of people that believe they're the bad guys, feeling as though they're players and wanted to stop it immediately. 
That's how I'd feel, like a player. 
Yet you can just tell, that they aren't evil.. but what goes through their minds at that point?
Well, let me infer for you.. they feel heartbroken by watching someone shedding tears because of them, they feel lonely now and doubtful. Perhaps both partners pressed a finger into a thorn.
Or it could have been the opposite. Maybe in between, who knows. Break ups are interesting to watch and learn from, but why are the complications amongst humans so difficult to handle and endure?

Why can't our emotions be healed the way a bloody finger is? 
Because physical pain is not comparable to mental emotional pain, it is scarring.
