I started posting way back in 1999-2000 when the boards looked totally different. My ex had decided to move on to greener pastures and was being a total jerk. I was able to come on here and cry it out. Now I am a lurker and occasionally post. I see myself in so many posts especially the ones where there just seems to be no light at the end of the tunnel. I try now to post to let them know that there is an end and the light is brighter than they ever could have imagined!

Kelly, that's great. The "old-timers" play a very, very important role here. I know when I started posting, I don't think I ever would have believed that I'd be OK if it wasn't for the wisdom of the women who had already been there and experienced divorce.

I lurked here for a week or so when my ex and I seperated the first time in January 'o4. We decided to get divorced a year later and I've actively read and posted since then.

Anyone "one-up" me for being here any longer than me?

you know - i honestly don't remember. i do know that i started on these boards in the old format - i think it wasn't called ivillage then. i started because i had cancer and was looking for advice/information/help... and then of course the dysfunctional marriage reared its ugly head, so i started browsing for advice for THAT. and the rest is history...

I think that when I found it, it was newly "iVillage"... and I saw it advertised somewhere--don't remember where... but I found it (thank goodness!)
