Breakups & Divorce Support Group
Just broke up with someone or in the midst of a difficult divorce? Breaking up is difficult no matter what the circumstances are. They say that time heals all wounds, but sometimes a listening ear or a hug can work wonders for the heart. Whether you need a place to vent, someone to hold you to No Contact, or need advice about what to do, we're here to help.
What is this site really for....what one may consider being supportive, others may think it is offensive. Some may need tough love, while others may need to be tread lightly with. How does one know? Nope we all are not in the same place as others, but what should be said, and what should not...nobody really knows.
There used to be some tollerance of different points of view.
No more.
If I don't agree with the majority...you WILL get called names and have people tell you what you think. There Will be posts that go Way over the line....so far over the line that ds decides to ban people. And those same people will come back and attack you at will.
Oh and they'll post your Real Name on here...more than once.
so...back to claiming my awesomeness....*looks under rock*
You can pick at which reply I'm doing that for...
I almost got run away from this site when I first joined.. One reason was a nut job who acted so kind for weeks and then turned on me for no reason - many of you know her - her name begins with A. - I forget the whole name.
And as far as help on this site, I've gotten a lot, and I hope that I have given help and support to people as they need it. But I've also seen first hand what it's like to be ignored when I've put comments out on some threads. When I'm feeling low, it hurts. It makes me feel invisible - and I get enough of that in reality.
There is always going to be cast of characters who aren't going to respond to what you say, or who are going to respond in a manner that you don't like. - but this is what happens when we put our thoughts and comments out on a public board.
I just want to say something about the negativeness lately. The anger, the trolls, the public lynchings. It's going to happen now, and as it did in the past and as it will in the future. People will come, people will go. it's just the life cycle of DS.
There has just been to much "he said, she said" lately. I know we all want to protect our friends, but if something hasn't been directed right at you, try not to bring it to the boards. It's scary for new people, it's upsetting for veterans.
And as I always say...Please lets all try to just get along...We need each others support.
Thank you for reading
They aren't going to do that. They think they're right...they think it's cancer. They won't be happy unless they've destroyed, or run off joy, g, and now probably me.
But see I don't care. They can post my real name. I have nothing to fear, because I've done nothing wrong. Plus I have real people, and real neighbors in my real life, that would look out for me.
So, how was everyone's weekend? Mine was awesome seeing my boys after being away all week. It's nice to be in the people business....kinda helps you see through bullshit. I spent Saturday with a wonderful friend I met here on DS. She is awesome. Yesterday, I did NOTHING...not even laundry.
How was the weekend for all?
"it's a disease that can quietly develop and not give bold, immediately noticeable symptoms."
It's all a big joke.
Talk about how banning is wrong, but then start a thread on the member's community trying to do just that to the person you don't like.
Complain about private PM's and then post the most horrible things on the main boards......
It's all funny.
I am going to start teaching my workshops again this fall. YAY! I also killed my laptop at home...*cries*....
Labor Day is coming up...any plans? I'm going to have fun....
Did I mention that I didn't do anything yesterday? My laundry is going to pile up...
