Dear Valued Users,
It's with a heavy heart that we announce the permanent closure of StepTalk.org on August 31st, 2025.
This decision wasn't an easy one. For over twenty years, StepTalk has been a source of support for stepparents around the world! However, over the years, the costs associated with maintaining and upgrading the site to remain secure, meet current standards and maintain availability have become unsustainable.
We are incredibly grateful for your support, contributions and the community you've helped us build. Your engagement has made StepTalk.org a special place and we cherish the memories and connections made here.
We would especially like to thank Aniki for volunteering to be a moderator and for caring so much.
Thank you for being a part of our journey and we wish you all the best.
Sincerely,
Dawn and The StepTalk Team

5 years ago SD29 Friend
5 years ago SD29 Friend requested me. Against my better judgment I accepted the request. Two years later I blocked her from DD18's and my FB. I should have done this the instant I learned she had an account.
Ugh, why didn't I think of
Ugh, why didn't I think of this before. She friended me recently and I don't know what to do. I don't want to hurt her feelings as we are trying to have a good relationship, but I don't think it's a good idea. Plus, I like my 'space'. You know? Even on FB! Yes, I have my settings to private, so it's very limited for others to see. Do I just ignore it?
If she sent a request though
If she sent a request though she can see the facebook wall while the request sits there unanswered. So she still has access.
I am not friends with my skids...as I don't need their mother having ANY insight into my life. She has gotten a tid bit here or there from people who apparently are "friends" of hers...as I have figured them out, I have deleted and blocked them also...sad part was some of it was family of DH's, some were who he thought were "good friends" of his, some were distant relatives of mine. Oh well...no skin off my nose.
Yes, she sent the request. I
Yes, she sent the request. I accepted, and promptly customized all status & pics to block her. That nosey child lives here full time and drives me insane already in my business. But I couldn't not accept
Never have been friends with
Never have been friends with either skid on FB. Actually blocked SD16 two years ago after I found out (from someone who was friends with her) that she was stalking my FB and actually had the nerve to steal one of my pics and post it on her Twitter. Stupid twit... she is now blocked and forever shall be.
I am fb friends with 2of my
I am fb friends with 2of my SD. I have blocked the eldest SD and will never accept a request though highly unlikely i will get sent one. I was became friends with the other 2 when SO+ I gpt together officially tho now regret being friends with them now.
Yup, big mistake. It was
Yup, big mistake. It was years ago when we got along great. I've customized it so she can't see anything I post. I need to delete her I just haven't found the energy to deal with that when it happens bc "SD is trying so hard" She's not trying at shit, WE can't stand each other and have no business being fb friends. At the time I felt like I couldn't not accept and our relationship was completely different back then. Ugh.........
I am FB friends with SD23,
I am FB friends with SD23, and she initiated. I never comment on her posts, and she rarely comments on mine. Seeing her posts really shows how immature she is, but I don't get into any drama with her if I can help it. DH can't seem to help it once in a while and comments on a few of her posts, but for the most part we ignore her, and verbally comment to each other about it.
