Gentlemen: I'm not sure about your agenda (and I don't really care), but why go into such a tizzy just because you're not in a relationship, or married? Take the time to enjoy life!
For most men, this is not good advice. For most men, with each passing year there are fewer women they'd like to date that are available.

I disagree. With each passing year women are: a) getting divorced; b) getting out of relationships - regardless if she breaks up with her guy or he with her. I've known plenty of women in their 30s, 40s, and even 50s in such status. They say 50 is the new 40, 40 the new 30, etc. To some point, I believe this.

Even if it were true that more desirable women become available after the age of 30 (and obviously that isn't true ...), that doesn't mean the average guy has more options. By age 30 most guys are uglier than when they were 20, have developed addictions or other mental disorders, have less confidence, etc.

I'm 25, and I'm better looking and more confident than I ever was at 20. Haven't developed any addictins either..
Eh, it isn't fair to assume all divorced women are damaged goods.
This! Many a divorcee is no longer married for a variety of reasons. The ex cheated on her; The ex has substance abuse problems; Incompatibility....the list goes on.
Give her the benefit of the doubt until proven otherwise!

Yep. I filed for divorce because my husband didn't do, well, anything in our relationship. It was the hardest decision I've made in my life, and it took me almost a year to make the decision, but it was the right thing to do. I - and anyone in my situation - deserved better. I'm a better, more settled and confident woman at this point in my life, and my approach to dating this time around is so much more laid back and enjoyable than when I was in my 20s. The type of man I'm looking for has changed, too, as I have a clearer idea of the type of man that is *actually* good for me rather than the type that society tells women are good for us.
And...I am actually in better shape now, and more beautiful if I'm to believe what all the men and friends/family are telling me, than I was in my late 20s.

I think I've heard of gals like you.
That said, I had to explain to some guy on here a coupla weeks ago, that his penis actually won't fall off when he hits age 40. So, your above quote may fall on a few deaf ears for this group (?)
Divorce affects both spouses, including their views on relationships and anyone who suggests otherwise is full of it.
I've been divorced now 5yrs, have had 2 girlfriends since, and now just casually date. I've had a few separated/ divorced single moms express an interest in connecting more with me, but I wasn't interested in general. Before I got married to my ex, I was once engaged to a hot single mom so I know whats up. I just think I'm happier casually dating and having a peaceful life as a divorced bachelor. But next week, I'm going to have a hot cute single girl friend move in as a roomie since she needed help relocating. Gonna be interesting to say the least.

Personally, I wouldn't get remarried if I ever got divorced.

Again, you can't couple every single divorcee into this category.
