A couple more things; if you don’t want to date someone who has kids, then don’t. That’s simple. We each get to make those kinds of choices. Because you have kids isn’t relevant, you do you and go for what you want.

As for marrying again, might be a little early to make that call but who knows. Maybe consider being open minded on that front? Just a thought - because in reading your posts it doesn’t feel like you have truly closed that door. How about, your just not ready to get married now, you focus on living in the present, and the future will take care of itself.

And if you have a good job, are a good dad, and are fit, there will be plenty of incredible women out there. Oddly there are more women out there than quality men, so again, feel free to be selective. There is nothing wrong with that.
