Thanks Tom, I think that some spring cleaning, garage sale, yard sale things are in order. Maybe it will help mentally de-junk also.

I created a difficulty for myself.
During a heated discussion with my wife, she pointed out that "you don't even have any friends... I have friends and yes some of them happen to be men!"
This kind of hurt, because I simply looked forward to being with my wife, and she would get mad, if I went out on my own doing things. By habit and design, I have no close friends, except for her.
Thinking about the GAL, I wrote a personal ad in the platonic section. I must have wrote the personal ad of all time, because I've had a number of very nice responses.
Now for the advice from fellow DBers. What do I do? Should I now proceed and initiate these possible friendships?
I have little doubt that I will be completely honorable. What do I tell W if she asks? Will that drive her back to her own EA?

Footfalls echo in the memory, down the passage which we did not take, towards the door we never opened Into the rose-garden.
