I think dating is eventually required to get a life. As a man, I want to be with a woman. I recently gave my WAW an opportunity to date me. We went on one, it was nice. I asked her out again, she turned me down. Time to truely get a life. Get out there and enjoy life. If, by some miracle, my marriage is meant to be, I don't think my dating will be the biggest issue that comes up in counseling. She told me to do it and made it clear that she would. I am well aware of how I failed in the marriage. I spent a year changing and trying to make up for it. Human beings are social animals. I can't be alone forever. I don't want to be alone much longer. I have friends. I have the kids. I do things. It's not the same.
