I thought I'd just throw this out there to see what you all make of it. When I first started interacting on the boards, I read nearly every post out there. Amongst all the posts of joys, funnies, and inspiration, there are frequent posts about terribly sad things like calling off the wedding, cheating, or what not. And I cannot bring myself to read any of them anymore. They are so sad, and it scares me that these kinds of situations occur out there. I know that I'm sheltering myself in my perfect world bubble, but it breaks my heart to think that true love stories die sometimes.

I admire the posters who put their emotions out there because I don't know that I'd be capable of being that brave. I don't know how I'd handle a situation that caused my relationship with my FI to end, and even thinking about the what-if's is too far out of my comfort zone.

So...um...I think this is a mass appology to anyone who is writing posts such as these and looking for advice and comfort. I can tell you that I do think of these people and pray for a solution to anyone's problems on here. And thank you to everyone who does read and post their thoughts for people who need them. You are angels!

Thank you for posting that, as I felt I was the only one. It is hard for me too because I have been on both sides of the good and bad and with only 39 days away, I am kind of going through some of the fears and worries that brides/grooms go through and cry at least once every few days because of the fear. But I will say, through it all this is the best site to post and read for any type of advice. I was on the Knot and could not beleive how awful people treated each other. It was so disgusting, I deleted my account. My advice is to not read the sad posts if you can, but its a reality and sometimes this is the only way people can let out those emotions so then it becomes hard not to read and be supportive. Love is wonderful yet can be so devasting too!
