Oh, the headlines are full of this. Lovely sequence of events:

1. The woman snubs a decent man, marries an abusive jerk, and brags about
how smart she is.

2. Ten years and a few kids later (not necessarily in this case), she flees
an "abusive situation" without remembering who CREATED that situation.

3. Once free, she hooks up with a nice guy and finds "happiness."

Her intentions were good here, but obviously that didn't matter much.

Sure, a lot of this kind of stuff happens, but, how is avoiding divorced women
going to help?
If men my age are going to date at all,they are most likely going to date
divorced women. There just aren't that many widows and never marrieds around.
I am reminded of a Detroit radio talk show, Tom Laikus (sp?) I think it was,
who was putting down single mothers.
I say, wait until he's in his mid forties, he will look at them a lot
differently.

Ray, You and I must have had the exact sort of experiences. I can't say
everyone is like the women I've known maybe I've made bad stupid ignorant
etc. decisions but I have experienced the same things. To answer Ron's
comment, I personally do not date for any sort of long term committed
relationship. That would be nice but I must be more realistic now.
