Thanks everyone. I'm going to talk to a dr today about an AD. I think I'm at that point.

J, I know how you feel about having an ow to spend time with. That's one thing I'm not willing to do, though I find myself thinking about it during weak moments. I remind myself that most ow that would be interested in me, with the situation, are no better than the trash taking advantage of my W.

Marriage is something very special to me and God. I plan on staying true to my vows, physically and emotionally. To do otherwise puts me in the same place as my spouse. I won't do that to her or my children. I had a talk with my pastor about it last week. It's normal to have a desire for female companionship. I miss it too. Heck, it's normal to wonder, like our spouses have, what it would be like to cheat or be single again. You just can't act on those feelings. You're usually over them in ten minutes.

I'm lucky, in that, I haven't seen anything that comes close to my W. One ace she always has is that the two most important people in the world to me love her as much as I do. There will never be anyone who can take her place with them, even if I could find someone to take her place for me.
