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'm a bit confused, tougher. Pardon me if this sounds insensitive, it was my understanding that your wife has basically checked out. Told you she didn't care if you left. What do you think counseling will do?
I ask because I'm concerned you are setting yourself up for disappointment and dragging out the inevitable.
I guess I want to beleive
I guess I want to beleive that our harsh words to each other especially that one from her were said out of anger and I'm hoping she didn't really mean it! Trying to hang on even if I shouldn't!
