You've done the "GAL stuff"... ummm NO, you haven't when you refer to it like that. It's not stuff. It you getting a real life, learning about yourself again, doing stuff that makes you happy, getting involved in life outside of your home and your wife, doing what makes you happy and then you get used to treating yourself in this manner with dignity and respect. When you say it the way you did, it's a task on your shopping list:

- stayed out till 11:29pm, check!

And it doesn't work that way.

Really get a life.

You know what you need, you need to go out on dates with different women and experience a little external validation to pump up your ego and boost your confidence.
