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

Purple, I've been reading
Purple, I've been reading your blogs. What a crazy story. We had one of those "family secrets" that came out when an old, crazy aunt threw it in my mother's face. Well, a simple record search proved her right.
In your case, I would highly recommend letting this sink in. I know you're on a fact finding mission, but I think you should slow down just a bit. Have you talked to your dad yet? He may be panicky thinking you don't think of him as your father anymore. He may worry that you don't love him the same. You should probably ask your mom, too. Tell her you know and you're not judging her for it. You simply are curious. You may or may not get anywhere, but this whole thing has been taking place at break-neck speed.
Your life has been turned upside down and the "truth" as you've known it your whole life isn't true. Take a little bit. Let it sink in. Process it.
