Why do men remarry/re-cohabitate?

I’m >10 years post divorce, have chosen to not look for another wife/partner, and don’t understand why other men do.
I believe in the sanctity of marriage and don’t think it’s constructive to just marry again as it would leave me in the vulnerable situation of hair-trigger divorce. Also my commitment truly was once in a lifetime (as it should be) so I really don’t think I could love someone as openly as I did before, and (arguably) nor should I. I can honestly say I am broken by divorce and the ex-wife’s false accusations throughout our children’s lives. It would not be right or healthy for me to bring that to a new marriage either.
I understand the drives; loneliness, companionship, sex, having kids etc. It’s just blindsiding to see how many men go back into the system, essentially endorsing it, and for me the above trumps all that.
So, why do men remarry/re-cohabitate?

I’m looking to buy Scrubs 1-8 on DVD in England but see a lot of posts on original song removals.
Are there any DVDs available with the original songs? I don’t mind buying individual seasons if necessary.

A couple of AIs have named Canada as a main global contender for single straight father surrogacy rights, but I’m not convinced.
It’s clear from Canadian fathers rights groups that men are disadvantaged.
I’m English and wanting to find a country that supports single straight men into surrogacy programs. Where is the most welcoming/least hostile country/state for that?

I’ve always thought the term sounded like it meant equal parenting time, but usually it means the kids live with mum and spend every other weekend with dad.

It just occurred to me that this is one of those terms that is used to describe something actually different. Similar to how domestic abuse, now often called domestic violence, both of which are taken as irrefutable fact and where both have such loose definitions that any man can be accused based on imagination.

Anyway, it’s just a thought I had that when the courts and feminists say there’s a high number of ‘shared parenting’ it actually likely means dad fought through the courts and got the minimum the law would allow. (His time will become even less in England due to the repeal of presumption of parental involvement, but that’s a different story.)
