Nice to Meet You

Tuesday, October 28th, 2008

Hi Everyone,

I thought I’d take a minute to share with you what you can expect to find in this blog. Of course, there will be entertaining and clever posts by yours truly, providing endless streams of encouraging and enlightening words. That goes without saying. However, because I believe it takes a village, I will also be hosting guest bloggers as well as linking to other blogs and authors whom I find relevant to furthering the cause. Inspiration comes in many forms, and I certainly don’t expect to be all things to all people. What I can promise however, is that my postings will contain genuine info about my life as I am living it. Not always pretty, but at least it’s honest.
Welcome.

That Happened To Me

Sunday, October 5th, 2008

Welcome to www.ThatHappenedToMe.com, a destination site for every woman - regardless of age - who has recently ended a significant relationship.

Whether you’ve suffered a broken engagement, divorce, or lost a loved one due to illness or accident, you can count yourself among the many women who know what it’s like to get that phone call, that email, or Dear Jane letter that changed your life forever. Besides dealing with the emotional stress of a break-up, there are also decisions to be made, property to divide, and friends to notify.

www.ThatHappenedToMe.com is a community that exists purely to offer women in similar situations comfort and support while the healing process begins. Our first priority is to prove to you that there is no reason to be embarrassed or ashamed of your situation – that this has happened to intelligent, beautiful, and successful women all over the world, who are going through the exact same thing at this very minute. And they too, have no idea how or why this happened to them. Let’s face it – even when we expect it, we don’t expect it.

Your friends and family may offer you advice, constructive criticism, or financial support. However, these well-intentioned folk can’t do the impossible - take away the pain, erase sad events, or turn back the clock. We understand that there is no substitute for a magic wand, but there are ways to alleviate some of the stress by commiserating with other women who can relate to what you’re going through.

Sh**t happens and it happens to everyone. Find comfort in camaraderie. We will not offer any easy answers or solutions, just information, encouragement and support. Browse our articles, get advice from experts, post your questions and listen to what other women in your position are doing to get through the 24 long hours in each day. Our mission is to show you that you aren’t alone, and more importantly, there is a way up, out, and on, to a new life.

With love,

“Lucky Chica”
Founder, THTM
