I mentioned playing w/ my good friend's band at church, which I have done a few times recently. That has been a great stress reliever(I also play in my own church's band, but it's fun to get together with other musicians). Charlie (friend) and his wife have been through their own personal hell with previous Ds, crazy ex-spouses and troubled kids, so they understand what I am going through and are my most close and intimate support group.
So last night Charlie asks how things are going and I tell him the latest. He replies, "A couple of women (in the church) have been asking about you." You can imagine how that helped soothe my crushed self-respect and male ego. Obviously nothing is going to happen in that arena while I am still married, but it's nice to know there might be something to look forward to if the worst happens.
