We are a community of both survivors of abusive relationships and people who are currently living with abuse. We are compassionate, knowledgeable and honest. Most of us also have a great sense of humour… something every one of us needs to make our day a little brighter.It’s All Good Posting Etiquette:1) We treat each other with kindness, respect and compassion.2) We do not use this community as a grandstand to vent ugly personal vendettas against an abuser by giving their real name, address, phone number or any other personal information. Such posts will be immediately deleted by the forum moderator and the poster may face board restrictions or banning.3) Please watch your language. Yes we are all adults, however, posts filled with nothing but 4-letter vulgarities are neither informative nor interesting. They demonstrate only a lack of linquistic skills and selfish disregard for community etiquette and, as such, will be summarily ejected by the forum moderator.4) Our community is all about positive forward motion and growth. All men are not horrible. All women are not horrible. Please take care that you do not place a whole group of innocent people into a ‘nasty’ collective. Blanketing statements are unfair and not true.
