writes:So I'm divorced now, was married for 6 years. Now single, confident and trying to get back into dating. During my marriage I seemed to always get vibes from girls that seemed to like me, but now that I'm free, I'm wondering if my availability suddenly makes me unwanted. I guess I'm just looking for advice on whether or not girls actually liked me, or enjoy flirting with taken men. I was very faithful during the whole marriage, but i think we married too young. A lot of these girls are "friends" as well, or at least people that I saw semi-regularly.

My husband tells me the same thing, now that we´re married girls flirt with him more, and he laughed about it, because he said I never got this much attention when I was single.
I had a friend and she was attracted only to men that were taken.
There was another girl that I used to work with and she loved to make other women jelaous by flirting with their bf or husband.
So it all depends, some girls like what they cant have, some just believe that there is something good about a guy when he is taken otherwise he would be single.
Just be confident, and good luck to you.

Now that you are single, you want that attention, but you're not getting as much of it as you wanted. Perhaps you get the same amount of attention, but being along a lot more of the time, you fail to notice it, because you crave more.
I think this is a psychological effect. Girls dont like taken men more than single men, but the flirting with taken men can be more innocent, without meaning much. Flirting with single me most of us girl take a bit more seriously, and don't flirt around too much. We dont walk stalkers either.
You're a single guy now, you have to do some flirting yourself!
