A Friend In Need/A Friend Indeed

Like so many others, I go through a gamut of emotions on a daily basis revolving around my marriage. I find comfort in different things, coming on to the SSN board is one of them. But I really have no one to talk to about these types of things, especially when I just need to vent, or have a sympathetic ear. Because, really, who else besides someone who is or has gone through this understands?

So I wondered if anyone else would like to connect on some sort of messaging app? This board is vital and important (and truly an incredible resource to people who are looking for support and info), but sometimes I just need more connection in the moment. I know that many of us have a bad taste in our mouths about Kik and Snapchat due to being burned by our spouses leading double lives through those apps, but wouldn't it be nice on those days where you just want to reach out to someone that you could connect with a willing ear?

Anyone up for it?

Hi friend, register with this site and send me a message. No need to feel alone when there are people with a compassionate ear, and some understanding of what you're facing!
