I've really gotten hold of my emotions and am much better in general. I feel stronger and more in control of my life than I've felt in years.
Good. Keep it up. Why did you not feel in control of your life before? What do you plan on doing to make sure it doesnt happen again?
I'll just hang in there and keep positive.
being positive is good, but 'just hanging in there' is not proactive. It can look alot like 'doing nothing.'

Is snuggling really all you wanted to do? Your wife was SS for how long? How affectionate were you before? Was it just sex or was she touch/affection starved by you too?
