Hi Brian. Thanks for your comment. I'm sorry this was your experience. I do feel that women have the advantage in having more emotional support following separation and divorce. But things seem to be changing in younger people. Men are learning that they can open up and lean on each other in ways that older generations would never consider. I would recommend Meetup.com in your area to find singles groups and groups organized around specific activities. For me, it's been a lot of fun.
