If Woman is enlightenment, Man is enlightenment also.

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?

Art pleases by reminding, not by deceiving.
— John Constable

In general those parts of a flower which we most admire, such as the petals, are secondary sexual characters, closely associated with the minute primary characters. The whole assembly is paraded and flaunted with joyful unconcern above the more mundane structural and nutritive organs, and it constitutes what is usually for us the most attractive feature of the plant. In this way flowers exemplify more completely and perfectly than any other living organisms the primordial innocence, beauty and unselfconsciousness of the sexual function. As a symbol and as something like a perpetual renewal of the primordial act of creation, that function is essentially sacred.

— Lord Northbourne, Flowers
