I find myself in an odd place in that I do think that the advice columnist was inappropriately biased against men. *BUT* I do see a lot of vitriol here against women in the comments. I think some reality goes here.
First off, I’m a very happily remarried divorced guy. I made mistakes the first time around and married the wrong person. That stuff happens. Thankfully no children from that, so closure was a lot easier to achieve. I think that an important take-away is that if you are a divorced person thinking about dating, it is very important to take time away and learn from your experience so that you don’t go and make yet more mistakes. If someone is going to date a divorcee, I would recommend doing one’s best to make sure that they’ve done the rel event soul searching/learning from their past. You don’t want to be their rebound relationship nor another mistake in their future. I think that this advice applies equally well to men as it does women.
