I was typing on my phone. This is not being published. Writing is my profession; I have also taught college English. No writer, editor or publisher cares about writing that is not being published.

I don’t drink or do booty calls. You are presumptuous.

Divorced men have a harder time finding both sex and relationships than divorced women.

Online dating has changed it all. There are multiple studies about men having greater difficulty with access to sex than in previous generations. Anecdotal information from people I know confirm this. I have no problem getting dates or getting into a long-term relationship if I wanted to do that—I don’t. Divorced men have a harder time than women now for both. It is not 20 years ago.

Wrong. I know divorced men, including me [sic] ex. They all have more issues dating than divorced women.

Everyone on this board knows divorced men and divorced women. Your posts do not make sense. For example, "They all have more issues dating than divorced women" is an ignorant thing to write since it cannot apply to every divorced man and every divorced woman.

Promiscuous women have fewer issues finding men to bang than non-promiscuous women. However, the men banging them usually do not see that they provide anything other than easy access to NSA sex.

You will respond by posting that women do not carry what men think, which is good since most men and women judge promiscuous women as providing little besides sex. Actually, you should look for a man who could help you with your writing ability since you write so poorly.

Unless you are a pirate.

Then, by all means, write more about "me ex." In fact, please write more in keeping with your pirate theme (e.g., write more about finding "booty" after a long night of drinking grog.)

Otherwise, yes, stay. Until her second year of college.

You’re wrong. It’s actually better to divorce sooner rather than later, if you know you’re going to do it. When you wait to divorce until your kid is 18+, they feel like their childhood was a lie & that the rug is being pulled out from under them. Rip off the band aid

It’s true women have it easier than men for no strings. Most men won’t get a lot of sex in an open marriage: my exH knew this.

Many divorced women are not interested in serious relationships or remarriage so who cares about that comment

You missed the point because you did not understand the post.

Divorced men will have more options if they appear open to a relationship. Here is why.

Many divorced women may not be interested in serious relationships or remarriage. However, they will seldom date a single man who advertises he is open only to casual sex or a married man looking for an affair. This is most true on OLD.

Therefore, a divorced man who states that he is "open" to having a relationship is more likely to find divorced women who, after meeting him, are open" to an FWB or NSA relationship. You were the one who offered up your opinion on divorced women's interest in "serious relationships or remarriage." Neither serious relationships nor remarriage was mentioned in my original post.

Untrue

It is true. Practically it is very difficult with logistics and there are conflicting loyalties if you are a good mother. Men want to come first. Dating takes time. Even if you find someone the likelihood is they have no commitment to your child. There are a lot of issues you might not foresee.

You are clearly not divorced. There are not conflicting loyalties. Kids are first. Divorced people understand this. No issues dating as a single mom.

That is not a reason to leave but stop spewing nonsense. You don’t know what you are talking about.

Well guess what I the PP and I AM divorced. What I said has been true for me. It’s pretty obvious why you’re divorced if this is how you react to someone sharing their experience.

If you have a problem, finding dates as a single mom, then you’re probably not very attractive because literally there are no issues.

There are no issues if your bar is low and you date losers. I won’t. So, despite being attractive it is not easy.

Uh single mom is OK, single mom who is *twice* divorced is a huge red flag in the dating pool. Any twice divorced person is.
