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've never been through it, but I wanted to send virtual hugs.
Also, I would stop doing for your ex and his BM and child. They are not your responsibility. Take care of YOU, and let him worry about himself and his family/ex-family.
I have not been through a
I have not been through a divorce yet but i would advise to stop helping right away and cut off all contact until divorce decree is final
You dont owe your unemployed ex or his financially struggling BM anything and he can say wtv he wants about u to his family, even if u were an angel to them, they would still have his back
My husband treats me like shit and has decided to move out this weekend (hope so honestly, but i think its just a manipulation tactic that he hopes would work for me to beg him)...He has talked shit about me to his kids multiple times and it doesnt bother me. I know where I stand and what I have done, if they want to deny its their prob
Move on and delete him from your life and brain altogether including his responsibilities (ex and SD)
My husband says im going to cry and regret how good of a man i have while he will be with a woman that he will love forever and treat right (funny how he cant treat me right but with another one he will lol)
Focus on you
The fact he said that to you
The fact he said that to you shows he is a manipulative POS of a husband. Already talking about his next woman while you are breaking up is some narcissistic BS.
Hold your head high and don't
Hold your head high and don't worry about what anyone else thinks. Obviously you were not appreciated by anyone and taken advantage of. . It's thier loss, move on with your life and learn from this.
Your husband sounds toxic, BM and SD are his to manipulate and have control over.
I would say if your stbx DH
I would say if your stbx DH is talking bad about you to BM, put him behind you and move on. He is not worth it if he would betray you by talking to his ex about it. Some things you just can't come back from and i would never trust him again.
