On the outside they might put on a brave face, hit the pub and talk even more about football. But a study has found that,(26)contrary to popular belief, when a relationship is in trouble it is men who suffer the most. Romantic ups and downs(27)apparently have a greater effect on the mental health of young men than women. While women are more likely to display their(28)depression to friends, men are more likely to store up their feelings—with negative health effects including making them more likely to drink(29)alcohol.
    Professor Robin Simon, who led the study, admitted she was shocked that the results(30)overturned the widespread assumption that women are more(31)vulnerable to the emotional turn of relationships. " Surprisingly, we found young men are more(32)reactive to the quality of ongoing relationships," she said. That means men’s(33)mental health is more affected by the harmful stress of a rocky relationship.
    The researchers also found that men get greater(34)emotional benefits from the positive aspects of an ongoing romance. Professor Simon, of Wake Forest University in the U.S., said the findings could be down to the fact that young men often have few people in whom they confide apart from their(35)romantic partner. Whereas, women are more likely to have close relationships with family and friends.
