I would caution you to be careful with the plenty of fish contacts. I know that people say that want "friends". I also know how vulnerable we all are. There's nothing wrong with having women friends, but you need to be careful of the situations you put yourself in (IMO). I know that there are groups around me of men and women respectively that get together for different activities. You can even find them on craig's list.
An intersting read (no, don't recommend it to your spouse) is "The Unexpected Legacy of Divorce" by judith Wallerstein. It is based on a 25 year (limited) study. I found it a worthwhile read.
Enjoy the weekend and do get out some. It's good for the soul.
