Men type-cast women like this because men seem to be more rational and look at things more logically then 'most' women do. This is just an opinion but it is fact that women are driven more by emotions then men.
Yeah so one of them are just suppose to sit back and say,"you know what, your such a better parent than I am, why dont YOU just keep full custody and I'll have visitation rights" that sounds like a perfectly viable solution right? Too bad divorce is just as much about pride and emotion's as it is the best living situation for the child involved. Welcome to the real world.
And to answer this little quip, I have no problem being alone and absolutely no problem finding a compatable mate at any point in time (even for just one night ). It is my choice to be single and I could not be happier. I see your point in having a person in which you share alot with but i will NEVER be with someone just because I want that or want someone around. I am perfectly happy on my own. If you think being in a relationship is the best part of life then maybe you should search harder. Not trying to insult you just saying there are better things than simply having a compatible mate thats all.
