He's trying to find out why he's still single and not dating.

Default Where does all the DRAMA come from?

Hormones, emotions and immature behaviour. It starts off in high school and some people never grow up.

Also, some people mistake the cycles of fighting, breaking up and then making up as proof of good passion and that their relationship is full of this passion and love. But it's not.

Then some have babies out of wedlock as proof of the couple love and commitment for each other, or think that babies are magic relationship glue and that having children together creates an unbreakable couple bond... and viola! More food for dramas down the road.

Drama is not specifically a "woman thing". What happens with a lot of women is that they fall for a handsome face, a great approach, a beautiful smile, lots of attention and fail to look beyond what is on the surface. They marry for all the wrong reasons, perhaps to get out of a bad life growing up, maybe fear of being alone and BAM "Mr. Right" turns into the Troll living under the bridge, booze, pills, pot, other women and more. If men and women both would be honest from day one then perhaps all the drama would go away? Ya think? How do I know about drama?? Three marriages; the first being to an alcoholic, pot smokin', woman chasing, non working moron who had me totally in the dark until after we were married, living in Northern Maine with a child. So, honey, make sure you always tell the truth to the women you meet, never not ever be a wolf in sheep's clothing. If you are lying about yourself when you meet them, trying to make yourself something you are not then you are officially a "DRAMA CREATOR".

In the meantime, if you don't want to hear the drama then find someone who hasn't been takin for the royal ride of dishonesty and ego..and..good luck with that one. Women can be gullible and fooled by what's on the outside pretty easily. It's not all our fault for sure.

"Drama" is someone trying to be the center of attention.

Exactly. Perhaps if you attempt to redirect the conversation to mutual interests, current events, etc. then they will find the conversation stimulating enough to leave the exes out of it. I also think this may be some women's way of telling you what they don't want in a relationship.

Some people just have a knack for finding it, and others are intent on "making their own".

When I was younger my relationships got pretty dramatic. Especially my last long one before my dh. My ex was so dramatic, but he was a musician/artist/tortured soul. He couldn't help it. It was entertaining for a while, but nothing I wanted to spend my life doing. My dh, OTOH, is pretty mellow. Stuff just rolls off his back and that makes for an easy relationship. As others have stated, it takes two to tango.

If you don't want drama, avoid women who drink and take drugs. I'm not even talking DUIs or arrests at this point - people, especially women, who drink often have pretty active emotions and will be all over the place in them!

If you want a woman who is centered, neutral and reasonable - look for a woman who doesn't drink or drug. That nips it in the bud right there. (And I am not talking about extremely religious types, either.)
