So you give up on love and relationships because your roommate has difficulty? Who cares? This has no bearing on you, your love life or women/men in general.
And this is ludicrous:
I've never once seen this, but I don't hang around 14 year olds. Must be restricted to them. A real man never does this, couldn't do it and wouldn't do it.
I've seen it plenty of times, especially in men who are my age (late 20s to early 30s) going through their first divorce...many of them start dating long before the divorce is final. One of my guy friends started dating less than a month after moving out, they weren't even legally separated yet.
I haven't been in a relationship (or on more than two dates with the same guy) since I broke up with my ex and it will be 3 years next month. I'm absolutely over him (I was over him months before we actually broke up) but I just haven't found the right person yet. He was actually dating other women while we were still together so I'd say he was pretty over it as well
The fact that he almost blew a major opportunity with his internship (really big internship) over this. He is not upset with his decision but the lack of care his ex is showing after 8 years like it is nothing.
Well to be fair, if HE is the one who broke off the engagement, she should really not feel obligated to "care" about his feelings. Especially after 8 years.

Wait, wait, whoa... He's not upset with his decision, but it galls him his ex has moved on? What did he want, to see her crying and suffering? This guy has problems. You're not him, so don't worry about it. Just get on with your life.

This is true. They put their profiles up online as soon as the divorce decision is made, or even if they're just separated. They waste no time. Undoubtedly there are those who are shaken up by the divorce and need time to recover. But there are many out there who move as fast as they can to find a surrogate.

THIS.
It seems he's upset she's taking it so well. He broke it off, she's free to date whomever she wants.

I'm 32 years old, not 14. And just because you haven't ever seen it, doesn't mean I haven't either.

I started an online dating profile 2 weeks ago and I'm simply amazed at the amount of men in my age group that are 'recently separated' or 'recently divorced'. A lot of their profiles start out with 'Well, I just got separated from my wife'... and I can't help but think 'Why don't you get the divorce finalized before trolling online for women?'
I wont' date a separated man. Period. Too many of my girlfriends have dated them and they've ended up emotionally unstable or they end up back with their wife. Unless divorce papers are signed and filed, no thank you.

If you want to believe him, when she comes by to pick up her stuff periodically she is going crazy. I would tend to think she isn't operating with the best deck taking that into consideration.

OK, there seems to be more to this story than originally presented.
