WAY has given me the freedom to feel normal in an abnormal world. To meet up with other widows/ers and not needing to explain my marital situation is truly liberating. Thank you.

Penny, Hampshire

As one who doesn’t get out to as many WAY meets as I would like, the online support WAY provides has been amazing, and kept me sane on many a long, lonely evening. This site has been a total lifeline to me in the last two years, and I hope you, too, find support and friendship here. As I said, it is the one place where you can be completely honest and don’t have to pretend to be coping if you’re not. That counts for a lot.

WAY has helped and supported me so much and for that I’ll always be so grateful and thankful.

Vicky, London

I joined WAY to get help.  Instead, I found friends – the best help there is.

WAY has given me an opportunity to enjoy myself without any explanation. WAY has allowed me to open my mind, to find another life……. and thats OK.

Janice, Middlesex

I don’t know what I would have done if I hadn’t found WAY. None of my friends understood what I was going through, but thanks to WAY I now have lifelong friends who’ve been there too, and they will always understand.

Caroline, London

I made contact with WAY at a time when I was desperate. I was in a daze of confusing feelings and felt alone. I was so reassured by my first contact with someone from WAY and realised that what I was going through was normal. It was so good to meet someone who had gone through the same experience and survived. Time has passed  and the fog is clearing and I now have a group of friends who understand what I have been through without having to explain – we have all been through it and have survived. Our meets are supportive but also fun for both the children and adults alike.

WAY opened another door in my life and led to so many positive experiences.

Sue, Hertfordshire

I liked the safety of anonymity that the Internet gave me and once I got my log-on I spent literally days reading through all the posts that others had written.  It was reassuring that others felt the same way as me and were facing the same issues and dilemmas as me.
