This a unique emotional support and information-sharing service for those who have been deserted by their partners. So the first thing to do, whether you have been deserted recently or in the past, is join in a Forum!
Common to everyone who has been deserted is a lack of knowledge, which causes extra worry. Here we share our knowledge so that each of us can gain from each others' experiences, thus minimizing the fear that isolation and our lack of experience in this area can create.

Trauma: Everyone experiences a different range of emotions from Day One. Most remain unsupported and for them, desertion can be one of the worst occurrences that has ever happened to them. Others may naturally be well-equipped to take it all in their stride. For many of us, just sharing ourselves emotionally will help provide a valuable therapeutic benefit. Emotionally, one can be very 'real' here, real in every way, however inappropriate it would seem in the 'outside world'. This site is for the vast majority of people who could do with some support be it practical or emotional. Support from others in the same boat, support from those who have been in the same boat and support from specialist experts.
A Positive Approach: Believe it or not, many people have found that being deserted actually turned out to be the very best thing that could ever have happened to them. The majority of these people will tell you that they could not have expected this positive outcome were it not for the emotional and practical support they received. Most now want to Mentor others through the early stages. It is up to each of us to help the other as much as they will let us. How it all turns out in the long run will depend 100% on our own individual attitude but the quality of the support we each allow ourselves to give and receive will play a major part in helping us achieve the positive outcome we deserve and desire. With the support of this community, we are now no longer alone and we can help one another other in so many ways.
- Short Name Descriptions: Whilst we each have our own unique story, as the site develops it will be easier to communicate on this site if we use group names to quickly describe our present position or status. May we suggest the following? A person who deserted their partner/family = A Bolter
- A person deserted recently and requiring support and even guidance = A Survivor We call people who have been deserted 'Survivors' as this is a positive way to deal with a situation you didn't choose but nonetheless find yourself wanting to survive.
- A person deserted that now knows the ropes and wants to help other Survivors = A Mentor
