"Woman created the Universe. She is indeed the very body of the Universe.
Woman is the foundation of all three worlds. She is the essence of our body.
There exists no other happiness but that bestowed by Woman.
There exists no other Path but that which can be opened by Woman.
There has not been, there is not, and there will never be
Neither yesterday, nor today nor tomorrow
Any other treasure superior to the Woman,
Neither kingdom, nor pilgrimage place, nor Yoga, nor prayer
Nor mantra, nor asceticism, nor bigger plenitude
But that offered by the Woman."
– Shaktisangama Tantra

Let's look at this a bit closer then. Are we talking about "all women" / "women in general" / "the majority of women", or capitalized "Woman" as in, the divine manifestation of Yin, the feminine principle? The difference could not be more devastating.
One would be caught in weeping and gnashing one's teeth over a partner only if grasping and clinging to a permanent self:
"Woe is me, the woman is making me reactionary. I will never love a woman again!"
It's necessary to mention that this works the other way around as well. "Woe is me, the man has hurt me, I will never commit to another again."
It works either way, and either way is both unenlightened and natural at the same time.
Ego broken 😢
Check your mindset.
Don't want feelings? Then stop being human, I guess.
Tears and pain are a part of human life, and only if we understand them as an absolute cause for suffering, we end up in a bad place. See about your attachments and set some higher standards for finding a partner:
No less than divine, no more than human.
Instead of trying to change the people around you or cutting yourself away from them altogether, envision a situation that already contains the ideal.
If we're striving for a balanced mind, no extreme can ever be a solution. That means neither complete attachment to a partner, nor complete abstinence (or whatever other pair of opposites there may be prevalent in your life) is the way to balance.
However, experiencing the extremes is a potent way to develop the virtue of discernment, and can therefore be seen as a means to the development of an enlightened mind.
The filter of one's mental conceptions creates the experiences of one's life, therefore:
If you could have what you most need right now, what would it be?
And what would it be like if you had it?

[The Blessed One said:] "If both husband & wife want to see one another not only in the present life but also in the life to come, they should be in tune [with each other] in conviction, in tune in virtue, in tune in generosity, and in tune in discernment. Then they will see one another not only in the present life but also in the life to come."

For there is no friend like a sister
In calm or stormy weather;
To cheer one on the tedious way,
To fetch one if one goes astray,
To lift one if one totters down,
To strengthen whilst one stands.

singing -
because it's their nature
to greet the day
resounding far and wide
from a swelling chest
