Dear Valued Users,
It's with a heavy heart that we announce the permanent closure of StepTalk.org on August 31st, 2025.
This decision wasn't an easy one. For over twenty years, StepTalk has been a source of support for stepparents around the world! However, over the years, the costs associated with maintaining and upgrading the site to remain secure, meet current standards and maintain availability have become unsustainable.
We are incredibly grateful for your support, contributions and the community you've helped us build. Your engagement has made StepTalk.org a special place and we cherish the memories and connections made here.
We would especially like to thank Aniki for volunteering to be a moderator and for caring so much.
Thank you for being a part of our journey and we wish you all the best.
Sincerely,
Dawn and The StepTalk Team

I also used Blogger. I first
I also used Blogger. I first had one on it a few years ago to vent when I almost divorced DH when DH had a relationship with his coworker. I kept everything anonymous, but it felt good to get it out there.
I then started another at DH's suggestion when I was going through all my infertility issues. Our counselor said with all the research and then procedures etc I had gone through, I might be able to help others going through it. DH liked the idea and said I should blog about it.
I didn't put a lot of time or effort into either blog, so it was more of an outlet without much input.
This site is very good for getting input on the step situation and for seeing people in similar situations. Helps make me not feel crazy for how upset I can get over SD and BM related. I only have one friend who was in a similar situation, and she couldn't handle it anymore and broke up with her boyfriend. I think having a vent helps prevent that.
I like Livejournal!!
