A woman who managed to settle down with a naturally desirable man won't be "not happy", because such a man's company is its own reward, bringing "happiness" by default.
This is what I was responding to, and then gave you an example of why you’re wrong. BUT then you decide to change your opinion to be the opposite of that and go back-and-forth until you can somehow FEEL right.
Where is it that you’re getting these experiences and opinions from? Mine are learned and earned. From being married and then single, and then successfully dating, and having LTRs and STRs, enough experiences to share my opinions and LEARN from those.
Low on Luck, in all seriousness, have you considered interviewing for a decent, responsible housemate who would negotiate a fair rent in exchange for specified duties around the place?
You don't really seem to want a genuine loving, shared relationship so why not try for what you do keep telling us you want.....help with the maintenance and a dependable amount of financial assistance.

I think that is a GREAT idea. All business, nothing personal, no hurt feelings.
It's been my experience that men need to feel needed in a relationship in some way whether it's just to maintain the yard, to be a shoulder to cry on or to provide financial security. All men (all people really) need to feel needed by their parner even in some small way.
If everyone you date is telling you the same thing than maybe it's time to start looking at your behavior and figure out why your relationships aren't working. We tend to pick the same partners over and over again without realizing it.
I gotta say I find it strange that you would prioritize your pets over your partner. Of course your pets are important but if I were dating a man and his cat came before me I can't say I would be all that understanding (and I really love cats.)
Maybe you're just not ready to be in a relationship right now and that's ok. It's ok to focus on yourself and your kids.
And there's nothing wrong with not cooking but you have to understand that most men do appreciate a home cooked meal now and again and if you have a serious relationship again compermise can be the key to this minor issue (you cook 2 nights, he cooks 2 nights, go out 1 night, and wing it the other 2 nights.) It's not that complicated. Good luck.
A man who will value and appreciate very highly every scrap of emotional validation or maintenance you give him.
A man who will worship the ground you walk on.
A man who will desire to be trained in your preferences, so that he can do things as you wish to have them done.
A man who won't really mind being put down or treated with a certain degree of contempt, or perhaps...who enjoys being debased, even humiliated?
A man who will give you control of all of his choices and all of his money and resources.
I might know a type who would suit. But you'd need to buy some leather and a flogger or two. Juuuust sayin'.

We know, and we also know that this is your problem. A happy marriage is probably not in your future.
