Just wondering here. If you aren't getting support from your spouse, would having an online buddy or partner (who is also involved in the project) help ? It's just an idea I'm playing with... let me know your thoughts!

If you tell your secrets to the wind... Don't be mad if it tell's the trees.

I definitely think that having someone you can share your feelings, thoughts, accomplishments, and worries with will help! If its not your spouse, or if you are single, it's always nice to have a shoulder to lean on. Form the poll that has been started, I learned that not everyone is going to receive the support from their spouse and or may not be comfortable with telling their partners at this moment. So my anser.... ? Yup!! It would be a great help!

I'm sure some people would love it; I like to work on things like this alone and feel confident enough. I've been handling our finances for 18 years.

I am comitted enough to not have a buddy. I would rather post to the entire board.

I voted yes, but it never occured to me that it would be "mandatory" to have a buddy. I kindda figured it would be that if you wanted a buddy, just sign up on a list or smthing like that and find a buddy. I don't think Kim intended to make it an obligation to have a buddy, just more like if you want one, it will be available to you.

I agree! I think we are ALL supporting each other.

I don't need a buddy however i do think it is a nice option to have for those that do not have a spouse or don't have one that is supportive of the FTJ.

As said above I think right now the board itself is providing that. I don't want to be 'paired' if that thought crossed your mind
