This makes me angry

[The Silly Farmer]

I wouldn't take too much notice of it or lose too much sleep since it's clearly written by someone with very poor numeracy skills. Was it just me that laughed when reading 6 clearly numbered reasons in a list called 5 and only 5 reasons you haven't found love yet? Plus the whole concept of the piece is very negative too. It actually reminds me of that terrible Megan Markle film where she starts dating 2 guys at the same and uses the advice of a relationship expert who just has a book out to choose which one to go with. So rather than going for the obvious nice guy who she has loads in common with and who is funny, cheeky and witty she chooses the successful one who seems a little controlling with all the personality and charm of a doormat. Then after seeing said relationship expert plugging her new book on dating after divorce or something like that she then does the blatantly obvious and goes back to the guy she clearly should have picked first time.

Anyway sorry to hear about your ex not being there for you. Must have been pretty gut wrenching going through that with absolutely no support at all. Don't lose heart. There are plenty of decent guys out there. I'm sure you'll find someone nice soon enough.

You have no problem talking to guys. You have no problem turning that into something more than a friendly conversation. And you don't know what you want.

Since you don't know what you want, then by what metric do you pick the guys you talk to? And by what metric do you decide to go for more than a friendly conversation?

And I do feel compelled to mention that just from the few posts you've made, I instinctively get a "bad news" vibe.

So your problem is one of these things. Possibly both.
