We Overhauled The Site
This site has surprised me in terms of how many people visit it on a regular basis, and so I'm continuing to try to keep it fresh and informative. I hope you'll find this new layout easy to read, easy to navigate and that you'll visit often and refer your friends.
We also started up our User Forum again, this time with a little more control over it so that we don't get a bunch of abuse from people trying to put junk posts in. We're hoping this area of the site will be something you'll find to be really useful!
You can tell others.
Digg It
In an effort to make sure that the information we've put together here is easy to find and useful to as many people as possible, we're constantly on the lookout for new ways to make use of all the latest social connection methods that are developing. One of those methods is the "Digg it" process. If you're not familiar with the Digg It site, it's basically a site where readers recommend web sites. If something is relevant, the people who found it useful can refer it to others. This is the ultimate in unbiased references! If you've never seen the site before, We've linked it here. If you think our site, is relevant to the topic of Divorce, you can refer it yourself to help make it easier for others to find us.

A word to our first time visitors
Welcome to Survive-Divorce.com, a simple site that I put together after I went through my own divorce. This is an honest effort, put together primarily by me, in an effort to share some of the information and insights that I gained during my own journey through this most trying of times.

On more than one occasion, I have found myself being asked "Why did you make a web site about divorce?" To tell the truth, of the various web sites I've created over time, this one would never have been something I would have thought I'd get involved with if you would have asked me several years ago. It was only when my own marriage went up in flames that I found myself in search of information about how to deal with all the issues, problems and emotional upheaval that I was going through. And, to tell the truth, during my own divorce, I didn't really have much luck finding information that was useful to me. It seemed to me that most divorce related web sites I found were just created by lawyers trying to drum up business, and they weren't exactly what I needed. So, as I started to gather up my own collection of information and resources that were helpful to me, I decided to create this site to make that same information available to others. Along with the reference material and advice, I also sincerely want to create a community where those of us going through this turmoil can connect to exchange advice, support, ask questions and more. We recently overhauled our Message Forum and hope it will grow and become a useful resource to you.

This site may be just a bit different from what you've seen before on the topic of Divorce, Marriage and relationships in general. For one thing, you'll get some pretty straight talk as you work your way around this site. I've been through what you're going through right now, and I found that I wanted to hear the truth about what was going on. I wanted information about what I could do to fix things in my own marriage, but when that didn't work, when it became clear that my only option was divorce, then I wanted to find clear, concise information on how to get it done.

So here you are, going through what you're going through, and the way I figure it, you have plenty of stuff to think about without me trying to muddy the waters. So there'll be no beating around the bush here. I'm going to talk to you like you're an adult. I'm going to try to give you some clear straightforward information that hopefully you'll be able to use to make things just a little less painful. I want to help you through this, and get you back on your way to living a full, happy life. So, as long as you're ready for the straight talk about what's going on, let's get on with it.

The navigation links on the left will take you the start of each major section of this site. If you're not sure where to start, I'll suggest you go straight to the "Save Your Marriage" section first. Unless you've already completely made up your mind to divorce your spouse, or unless your partner has just informed you that he/she is divorcing you, there might just be a chance that you can fix your relationship. Until you're sure, I don't think you should toss in the towel.

About Our Partners & Links
As you navigate around here, you're going to find a fair amount of other information here, information from other sources, even a bit of the dreaded "advertising" links. Whenever we link to other sites and other resources though, the first question we ask is "is this information relevant to the site?" Our first priority is to give you the best information possible. Some of that will naturally come from other sources.

We do hope you'll find these other resources every bit as useful as the information we've come up with ourselves. We'll also do our best to keep this stuff out of the way, but accessible when you're interested in it. We know no one really likes advertising, but we have to pay the bills too...
