When they mention they may have killed their ex.

Seriously? Why would I be suspicious of a single person. What an odd question.....

While the boasting aspect would be a turn-off, it could be that she's otherwise too smart to NOT be single given the likely candidate pool. And why shouldn't she choose to be single if she's not ready for more? It would also depend on her age, I think. Your attitude says more about your views than hers.

Now, if she were young and hitting on me, I might view her with suspicion! She'd either have to have extraordinarily poor judgment, or extraordinarily good taste in mature men! LOL I'd be wary until I figured out which it was.

Um not sure about the question, but my logic is this, if she is single after the age of 30 and has not been in a relationship for longer than 2 years, my red flag goes up and her value drops. My ears open and I start to listen very very closely to everything she says about everything. Then I analyze everthing she said. I dont really want a woman other men dont desire, but I dont want one that has been passing herself around to men in hopes of getting a relationship. I think the key is getting a woman comfortable enough to talk about all the sex she has had with other dudes, sometimes this may involve alcohol, but if I listen closely they always tell me who they are or who they were and I make my choice from their.

I think I like the women who have the ugly duckling syndrome. There is a lot of potential for them to be HOT, but they never tried to be HOT and many men overlooked them. Not all women are hoes, but I find these ugly duckling types are rarely hoes and dont become hoes even after the swan comes out.

most of the single people i know are so by choice. there is no reason to question them, they all want better for themselves and haven't found it yet.

good for them and not shacking up with the closest willing participant.

Well, I can't be sure with how differently men think, which is why I asked. It probably depends on if the divorced woman has kids or not.

The big red flag for me is when she has tons of guy friends but "can't find anyone"

That would be unfair. You underestimate the number of guys who want to be friends first. They say they want to be friends and act this way, so she assumes he really is just a friend.

Why?

I have a ton of guy friends and can't find anyone. They're the ones who rejected me, not the other way around. Plus, I'm in a male dominated career field so I come in contact with more men than women.

It's amazing how many men treat women as nothing more than a commodity and not actual, living human beings.

Any women over the age of 18 who isn't married should be viewed a certifiably insane cat-lady.
