Why iVillage?

What brought you to iVillage in the first place? Were you seeking relationship advice or were you just bored at work? I wonder if all the people that find their way to iVillage have some sort of relationship problem that makes them seek out advice and therefore end up here and once they are here they like it so much that they decide to stay. So how did you first come here and how did you find it?

I was looking for single friends....and I found them!
I first found ivilage quite a few years ago when I was cheating on my ex bf and was looking for a place for advice/comfort/answers. It was one of those situations where I couldn't talk to any friends about it. I searched the internet and found the Love & Sex message board.
I came back to ivillage years later now when i was in my 2nd serious relationship where, again i had to end it (though it was not due to cheating, thank god, but due to it being passionless and just "not right") and was looking for answers again from people who were in similar situations. I knew i had to end the relationship but was so scared. Thankfully I got great advice and while hard to hear, it was definitely for the best.
And as for what's kept me here over the past few months- i'm newly single and am lost when it comes to meeting men and all that jazz. So lately i've been around The Single Life's board. So, basically i found this place looking for advice from complete strangers. Sometimes it's great, sometimes it's not, but it's still always interesting :)
