[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are women in here arguing with men about their reasons for wanting to remarry? I'm a woman and I know what the men are saying to be true. They really are simple creatures. After marrying, having kids and divorcing, when looking for a new mate, they're thinking about life partner/someone to date and bed partner. They no longer have to worry about her genes, maternal instincts. Even the ability to save and contribute financially is not that important because it has all been taking care of in the first marriage (the kids, struggling for the down payment on a house, climbing the corporate ladder to higher pay, etc).

They really don't care about the family gatherings, menus etc. They'd be fine having a romantic Christmas dinner in front of the fire place with Wife #2. And taking kids to the doctor and all the other stuff is likely to be taken care of by Wife #2.

Sure housecleaning may be something Wife#2 does, but that's just part of life. They would both be doing that (Ex DH & Wife 2) in their individual homes even if they'd never met.

Trust me, I have a couple of very close male friends who are looking for Wife 2 (widowed and divorced) and they are really just looking for someone to spend the rest of their lives with and have a bed partner (a friend's exact words). The other stuff takes care of itself for them.[/quote]

I meant to say that taking kids to the doctor will likely be taken care of by Wife #1.

Also, in stating he doesn't care about genes, maternal instincts etc. I mean that he likely will not care about starting another family, so he's not looking for all of that 'extra stuff' like "Will she read our future children bedtime stories, be patient with them" ect. At most he just wants someone who'll be nice to the kids he has--not necessarily write thank you notes for the gifts they receive and all the rest[/quote]
