I'm pretty busy here right now, and know you're all working hard on getting the new site up so I wanted to quickly post to delete those specific threads to give you more archive room while you were working on it. I did not have the time to quote the paragraph in Job's previous post. I thought that since it has the blue arrow in the yellow subject line, you would see the previous post I was referring too.

All in all, no worries Cadet. Consider it my contribution to freeing up valuable server space for the archives.

Job, while those observations are your personal opinion, they do offer the kind of guidelines I was looking for with regards to appropriate posts for helping people navigate a post-D existence. (Un?)fortunately, a big part of post-D existence is the reality of new relationships, how to meet new people, as well as how to deal with dating in the present, which apparently is a whole lot different than it used to be. While some topics are perhaps better addressed on other sites, that's a whole big, scary mess to a lot of folks and it's natural to turn to the people we've shared a virtual foxhole with since BD/finding this place. I do believe the skills learned here translate and can only help future relationships of all kinds, not merely romantic ones.

"Someone I loved once gave me
A box full of darkness.
It took me years to understand,
That this too, was a gift."
