Like any other community, many Stapleton families experience divorce.  Most people moved to Stapleton so that they could give their children great opportunities, and therefore, a lot of people here try to be good parents.  So, when a divorce happens, those involved in the separation try to stay in the neighborhood.\n<!--more-->\n\u201cWhen my wife and I got divorced, I moved to a different borough,\u201d says Stapleton dad Adam Johnson.  \u201cI wanted to stay near my kids, and not have us traveling all over the place just to drop them off.  But, it is obviously tough being a single dad living in Stapleton.  First, chicks don\u2019t dig it, and secondly, I prefer to not have my neighbors see the swinging single dad hanging out with the young ladies all the time.\u201d  Molly Bidler has had the same experience.  \u201cWe both stayed in Stapleton so we could support our kids,\u201d says Bidler.  \u201cI am single, but I still feel married living out here.  I am online dating, but usually right when I say \u2018Stapleton\u2019 the potential relationship is dead in the water.\u201d\nDivorced Stapleton residents are hoping the Grove is a solution to that problem.  \u201cWhen you were in college, co-ed dorms were the best,\u201d said Eric Hansen.  You had all you needed just two floors up.  You could meet chicks in the laundry room, or the commons area.  Isn\u2019t that what this will be like?\u201d  Brittni Whiteman likes the simplicity of meeting someone while working out in the workout facility.  \u201cEveryone there will be similar in age with similar interests,\u201d says Whiteman.  \u201cIt will be like shooting fish in a barrel.  Fish in a barrell.\u201d\nThe Grove is so attractive to Stapleton residents, many married people who aren\u2019t even in their fifties are already purchasing property at the Grove.  \u201cI am pretty sure my wife is going to divorce me after the kids leave,\u201d says Jim Zimmerman.  \u201cSo, why would I miss out on all of that fun by not investing now?  Plus, if she doesn\u2019t divorce me, we can actually use it as a place for our parents to stay when they visit.\u201d  Some residents are so enticed by the Grove, they are lobbying Forest City to have it be a \u201c40 and older\u201d residence.  \u201cI absolutely lied on my application and said I was 55,\u201d said Donald Sauer.  \u201cBut I am strongly hoping they let in 40 year olds.  That place will be easier than the Trampede.\u201d  ]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\t\t\t\t<![CDATA[]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[160],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-5398","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-issue-97","7":"entry"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5398","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=5398"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5398\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=5398"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=5398"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=5398"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
