Part 7/13:
Post-divorce, women face a shrinking dating pool that favors younger men. Men, especially with increased confidence and resources, tend to prefer partners in their 20s and 30s. As women grow older, they often find themselves overlooked, while the men they once dismissed as too young are now choosing these options. The supposed "freedom" of divorce, therefore, comes at the cost of diminished relationship prospects.
Many women walk back into a scene where the men they sought are now cautious or uninterested. The “market” has shifted, and the supply of desirable options for women diminishes rapidly with age.
