Hi, jdmac1!<p>Okay, here's the lowdown. I've provided the URL's for all of the groups that pertain to infidelity at iVillage.<p>This was our board......if you look through the archives you will see all of our names. However, I would like to note that for the last few days on that board I used the username "selquet29"....before that, I was always selket28. I have my own resons for my name change at the end. Everyone else used the same name that is being used here (except for the ones above who have already filled you in on the situation).
BELIEVE ME we have all had experiences with Board Snatchers (disrupters) so we can understand any trust issues that any may have. <p>A little history on us and our board (you asked [img]images/icons/wink.gif" border="0[/img] )<p>Before September of last year our board resided at Women.com. For some reason, TPTB decided to merge (or to be bought out) by iVillage. Many regulars on our board left at the time of the move. Several of us stayed and tried to make a go of it. See, we had VERY MUCH a unique board on infidelity. There was no "go you girl get you a MM" kind of support. All sides of the affair discussed the issues of affairs. What could be gotten there was a good, CLEAR dose of reality. We are a very direct and up-front kinda folk. Of course, there were always "whiners" because IT was supposed to be a MY Affair board and people were suprised when they didn't find support
for their affairs. The merge took place and all went to h#ll from there. We were lied to by TPTB on more than one occasion. Suddenly the OW became the target focus and a new board was created for them. We were
chastised because we only wanted to
support the OW if she wanted out of the affair. Here is the link to our board.......(the name was changed to "All Sides of an Affair......but if you go to the archives you will see that it was originally named "My Affair")<p>
Redbook All Sides of an Affair<p>This is the link for the *new* board created for the OW who wanted support but did not want to get out of her affair........<p>
Redbook My Affair<p>The following are links to
iVillage sites..MOST of us did NOT post on these boards...(WARNING....these are boards with many triggers....if you are a BS and go to the My Affair Support Group Board be prepared for the kind of support we
did not offer on our board)...<p>
iVillage Ending the Affair Board:<p>
iVillage My Affair Support Group<p>
iVillage Betrayed Spouse Support Group<p>I hope this clarifies some things. As some of us Redbook RiffRaff have already stated....we felt that we have been betrayed when our board was segregated.<p>My story is posted on a separate thread.<p>selket<p>P.S. I would like to add some of my personal information at the bottom of each of my posts..(I've seen this on other posts)...I can't figure out how to do it.....can someone help me?<p>[ February 17, 2002: Message edited by: selket ]<p>[ February 17, 2002: Message edited by: selket ]</p>
