I am positively delighted you have acquired some new male friends. This will do you a world of good (as you can already tell). Being the LBS is an ego-shattering experience that often makes you feel unloved and unlovable. Of course, that's not true, but it sure can feel like it.

But when you spend some time with a person of the opposite sex that finds you interesting, enjoyable, facinating, funny, witty, pretty, or some combination of these and, in general, desirable, it's such a wonderful feeling! Even if it's not serious, it gives you some much-needed balance.

Keep it up. You'll find that with a little time you will be able to look at your situation and WAH with greater objectivity and clarity. And once that happens, you can continue trying to save your marriage or move on to someone new based on a rational choice, not on a need driven by heartache.

So tromp on down in those heels. With a few compliments and a good time under your belt, you'll walk home on clouds.
