re: Anyone else give up on dating?

Another woman weighing in.
Dating is no picnic for us either. We are all not lip injected IG devotees. Although women hanging out and posting on Tiger Droppings are probably not the typical woman you find on dating sites.
Men have their own baggage. Everyone does.
One you get to a certain age your preferences are set, you know what works for you and what doesn't. That's actually a good thing but it shrinks the pool of people you are interested in and compatible with.
OP it sounds like you went through the post-divorce "I'm Free!" stage and binge of dating and now are on to the next stage of the post-divorce reality.
Many are recommending foreign women. I have no personal experience with that since us women don't go that route and look for foreign guys but one of my best friend's dad married a Thai woman after his divorce and all was great for a few years until she started holding him at knife point in the bathroom every time he pissed her off. He wasn't prepared for that kind of crazy.
At least men can typically date and marry a wider range of ages. That just doesn't work for us women. We aren't wired to be with someone 20 years younger than us.
Good luck to you. It's rough out there.

Definitely send that one back. You have to learn to accept cultural differences but not being attacked with a deadly weapon

a lot of guys who go that route think that you don't still have to do a little vetting and getting to know the person, it's not quite as simple as ordering a bride off Amazon

Passport bro incoming. Good luck. You’ll have the best time of your life my man!

Yes, got married.
Wife is against further dating.

Sounds Dr. Phil-ish but words to live by. Be good being by yourself and working on yourself physically, mentally and professionally and find yourself some new interests and stay active and when you least expect it you will find someone. At least that's how it's always worked for me. Also, be friends first. That's a must.

That shite does happen. One guy in town got swindled hard by a Pinay. Took half his money and opened up her own place. He turned around and met another online and was sending all sorts of money to her. Some guys just fall for it

Yes, all of the women who I have asked out recently.

Duh.
They've hit the wall and their looks are fading fast.
They've had their fun and now it's time to lock down a nice guy retirement plan.

I don't know. Didn't think to ask because it wasn't the most important part of the story to me.
