Divorce Support for Women on the Peninsula

"I recently filed for divorce and seem to be doing OK for the most part. I'd like to meet other women going through the same experience and maybe lend my support."

"Hi, I am Rachel and I was divorced 4 years ago. I have 8 year old daughter and the relationship with my ex is amiable. I did not have a support group when I went through the process so I would like to give my support to the women who is going thr"

"Hi, I'm Orly and I am in the middle of a divorce and find very little support among my married friends. I want to meet women that are in a similar situation to mutually support each other. "

"hi alicia, please know there are others who care alot and will be nearby with ears, shoulders, and helping hands to offer you during these times!"

"alicia, i am so terribly sorry. i hope we can be a soft place to fall; we'll do our best to help and support you!"

"Hi... I'm a stay-at-home mom with three little children (5, 3, and 1). My husband abruptly left us 2 weeks ago and plans to immediately file for divorce. I'm devastated, floundering and searching for a way to cope. "

"Hi, I'm Priya and am looking for guidance and support at this confusing time... and would like to offer my support to others who are in the same boat."

"Hi ladies-I'm so excited about meeting you all tonight. I knew I wasn't the only woman going through the divorce from H***!! We already have 15 members and so far 8 are coming to the meeting! I truly..."

"welcome, karen! why don't you give jeri a shout; i see she is from sf, and is coming. i don't know what location she is from, but perhaps you can meet up somewhere. i lived in the city for many years in seacliff (28th and lake), and then lived in the presidio nat'l park for 5 1/2 years after my divorce (lower simonds loop right above presidio social club) miss chestnut, marina, fillmore, union, ez access to friends et al. moved to sm 5 1/2 mos. ago."

"kat-i will be looking for you with your KAT name tag! i have blonde hair pulled back in a twist, am older, and will wear jeans and a black top. once again, thanks; i hope i can help others, and make new friends. i moved back to the peninsula from the city as a result of divorce. although i have many friends in sf, i would love to meet others in this area. noone understands, as with other perils of life , what it is like to go through a divorce that is very hostile and/or with a child(ren)."

"thanks for the shout, renee. i think we are all a bit nervous; i am! i hope we can all find each other easily, and i am not a dog! i have blonde hair pulled back in a bun, am older, and will probably have on jeans and a black top...look forward to seeing you there!"

"I've updated this meeting. For more details, see the full listing: http://divorcesup... When: Monday, May 5, 2008 at 7:00 PM Where: Mountain Mike's Pizza 390 El..."

"What part of your divorce would you consider the worst part? Any and all answers are welcome-and I'm sure you may have more than one answer. Perhaps it was your SBX's behavior, your not so great attorney,..."

"renee, your experience sounds somewhat like mine; i hope we can help others not make the same mistakes, and offer support. it is a wrenching experience; although i am a relatively content person now, i have never fully recovered, but i'm trying!"

"Hello, I look forward to learning from everyone. My marriage is over and we are just "staying" for the kids and then in 1 year I have to get this all sorted out. Would love to have some wisdom on it and can relate emotionally. Kathy"
