“Hoosjim”, You explained it perfectly. My weakness is communication and being an introvert. I enjoy live music etc.. and have never had a problem with alcohol. As a matter of fact I never did drink until this past year which was a huge red flag that subconsciously I knew something wasn’t right.

Nearest town with a bar and live music is 40miles away and it is a college town. Another city with more people is an hour away and I could meet tourists as well. I was thinking it would give me some confidence to meet new people and learn how to communicate. I wouldn’t be out looking for another woman. I would be observing and learning how to interact with others. Remember I have been married and with this woman since I was 17. I have no clue how to meet or talk to women. After my affair 18 years ago when I was 25 I have avoided communication with most women and especially those women that may have tried to flirt with me. I’m thinking it would be a good idea to go out and meet people.
