Hey Mac, as a teen I created a few fake accounts and instant message names. But me & my friends would just prank people. It was nothing serious. However at times it did seem more interesting than being ourselves. But other than that I don't really have much experience with it. However I do know what it is too be unhappy with a relationship & have a hard time making friends. I'd say look into group like Leed said above. Maybe you and your wife should consider therapy as well. There may issues there that need to be addressed that could help you with your problem. I wish you the best and you should be able to meet some nice people on PC just by being yourself.
