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

I love my Newfies. Before I met DH I was planning on breeding/showing Newfies and Arabian horses. Perfectly content to sleep the day away, but always joyful to be outside playing. Swimming, hiking, trail riding, and showing. The perfect life plan. And then I met DH, and that plan went up in smoke.

You are known for your dynamic personality. Not only do you love and care about spending time with friends, you enjoy having "me" time. You celebrate your independence daily and exercise regularly.

Your energy and playfulness are contagious! Constantly providing love and affection, you are the perfect friend or partner. Although you are not necessarily competitive or athletic, you enjoy staying active, whether it's at the beach or in the comfort of your home.

The friend everyone longs to have, and enemy no one wants to bother. When it comes to your friends and family, there is no doubt that you will have their back. When others find you overbearing, you remind them that you only have their best interests in mind.
