Hello everyone, Im a new member to SI and Im soo relieved to have found people who have experienced the same or similar hurt I have (even a yr later)
Im real confused though. Im seeing posts where people are using abbreviations for themselves and their spouse, other man/woman, etc.
Can someone please maybe give me a list of those abbreviations?
I feel silly but I really want to tell my story.
Thank you!!

Hi Delia. Welcome, and I'm sorry you find yourself needing to be here. There is an extensive list of abbreviations over in the Healing Library. That yellow box over to the left? Click on the Healing Library, and then at the top of that page, click on Abbreviations. Hope that helps.

Go to Healing Library which is above dr. Phil's face I. Yellow box

Go to FAQ

Go to abbreviations

Take no doze or drink lots of coffee.

You aren't requires to use abbreviations, but it does become natural.

Be careful,to post in the proper sub forum. If you just learned, JFO. If you are the cheater, Wayward. Etc. Or you will be chastised. Beware of stop signs, too, on the far left of thread titles.

Welcome Delia

The others have posted links to a whole lot of information. I would encourage you to read some but not be afraid to just put any questions you have out here.

Thank you misskirby, schadenfreude, yearsofpain25 and movingupward. The info was very helpful. Im happy to be welcomed. I didnt just find out, but it consumes much of my thoughts a year later. Ughh

Delia- if you don't feel confident with the abbrevs just yet then don't use them. Long hand is okay and the healing library has a list you can refer to when receiving replies on here.

Also- don't be worried... soon those abbreviations will be second nature to you
