Have you told your wife about how you are feeling in the community? I think you might want think about moving.

Absolutely. Her typical response has been that I shouldn't feel that way. Our counselor suggested that reassurance and empathy might help more than telling me why I shouldn't feel apprehensive about being in those situations; she now does that a lot more and I think it's helped.

Were I still single... I probably would move. Not sure that it's much of an option at this point unless she deconverts.
