I dont believe you need to "date" to get your confidence back. I go to the gym and flirt, when the flirting is returned thats a confidence builder. In my post I focus on being the stronger, mature warrior for my 3 and 5 year old during my arital crisis, that will give you strength, focus on you and your son. Be the man he wants to be, dont let her control the situations. How about you take your son out of town for a bit? go camp, fish amusement park? just a thought, but your W is seeing you work and pretty much lurk around the house, she is in control. As Robx told me, get your balls back.
