When you ask for advice here, what kind of response are you looking for the most
- Tell-it-like-it-is advice (hold the sugar coating please)
- A pat on the head and a comforting hug
- Someone to tell

I selected "other" because I come here I guess to get feedback on what other people have experienced in my similar situation. When I found out the truth only 15 short days ago, I honestly felt like there was no one who has been through such a horrible experience as myself. Now I realize that unfortuneatly this happens all the time and I can get through it. Cyber-friends help!
I have learned that if you don't want truthful advice that you may not want to hear, then don't ask for it!
I voted other because sometimes I just want it all.
Seriously I need the whole ball of wax. I like all points of view.You'll know if I only want to vent and get compassion responses.

i think it depends where i am in life....
when i first came here - i was quite hysterical, and i needed a combination of hand holding and firm direction.
now - i need less advice but whatever i need i would prefer it to be straight shooting - hold the sugar coating.
but i do notice that there are different types of peoiple here in different stages and different need levels. some people dislike the straight shooting and need the sugar coating. they are too caught up in their anger and they can't see the 'truth' - they don't WANT to see it yet.
I mainly want to know if somebody has been in a similar situation, what worked for them, what didn't work. It might help prevent mistakes...
It's also wonderful to have my feelings validated by women who have btdt and know I'm not nuts!
