Looking for a pen/web pal

Posted: Sat, Oct 22 2005, 9:15 pm Post subject: Looking for a pen/web pal

I am currently going through a very rough time in my marriage and with my kids. I cannot talk about it to my sisters, or other family members. I am looking for a counseler now. (just trying to find someone who won't charge outrageous fees)
Imamother is my lifeline. But I would love to have someone I can PM with.
Preferably someone with kids.

I don't mind if u don't mind giving it a try though I'm far from professional I must say, just an unbiased party. Confused

I would love to be in touch with you. My life has not been so easy either. I do have kids, young ones, and I hope I can help some how. Tila

did you find a web/pen pal?

Posted: Tue, Nov 01 2005, 2:32 pm Post subject: re: Looking for a pen/web pal

Just want to add that after almost 27 years of marriage and 7 kids, that there are ups and downs and sometimes they're very difficult to handle. I have been through the whole gammut of emotions and dealing with kids, etc, and now am dealing with an emptying nest syndrome (we send our kids away to high school, and the last one just left), and now I have to get to know my husband again, and wow, this is DIFFERENT.

My kids range from 25 down to 14 years old.

If any of my experiences can help, I'm always available to PM.

Amother, good luck with what ever you are going through, and hope a pen pal will help you.

27 year - wow!
That deserves lots of applauding.

Also, since this is a pen pal topic, I was wondering of any of you are interested in being a pen pal to Jewish inmates, unfortunately there are a lot of them who are in need of a friend. Please let me know.
