 hi, good question.
Andrew has set up DearCupid in such a smart way.
It is a wonderful site that allows people from all over the world to chime in with their collective wisdom.
Often with life experiences and the wisdom of surviving exactly the situation that an OP (original poster) of the question is facing.
There are people on this site with an amazing array of personal experiences and knowledge of resources in their own countries or internet resources. The articles area is where Aunts and Uncles provide even more indepth suggestions.
And the OPs and other Aunts and Uncles and peoplevisiting and viewing the site get to vote on which answers and questions they really liked or loathed by clicking on five stars or one stars or something in between as their rating of the post.
My best wishes to you
Regards
Abella

 I am only about five days old on this site. I got here, when I was completely down and had no one to offer me advise. I am somebody who don't have many friend because not all can impress me. But I have learnt that though friends on this site might not be experienced, they still have something to say helpful to us. I am happy being on this site because I get advise from around the world being here in a remote area of South Sudan. I love sharing ideas and learning from each other. I am proud that the poor suggestion I have is accepted and posted on this site. So If you like advise from others accept this site but if you like advise from a professional you can spend some few cash to get them where necessary. I am sorry if I have answered this wrongly.

I'm a lawyer with BS and MS degrees in engineering, and I'm certainly not a trained professional when it comes to relationships. Collectively, I do think the people who answer have an amazing amount of real life experience to draw on.

 We are just a bunch of normal people happy to give advice to those who need it. We have no professional qualfications (well most of us anyway!) but we are experienced in life and just enjoy helping people out in whatever small way we can.
NEVER believe that advice from Dear Cupid is 'professional' advice - there is no way to prove that any of us have any qualifications so just think of it as advice you would get from a friend, not a doctor, therapist etc.

 Dear Cupid is a very diverse "community ", there's people from any age,profession and walk of life. . Some Aunts work in the medical field, or have a background in psychology, counseling, social work etc., but that is totally co -incidental because nobody is here to give a PROFESSIONAL opinion, it would be foolish and unethical since we do not really know the poster and his life circumstances.So why do people bother asking Dear Cupid ? Because more often than not, there is people who went through the very same experience ,therefore they know what you are talking about and can offer you an informed opinion. And mostly because when you are in the middle of a problem you are too emotionally involved in it to see things dispassionatedly and objectively, so hearing the impartial opinion of "neutral" observer may often be very helpful.

 If you register, then you can answer people's questions. You don't have to be qualified or anything, sometimes just having life experience helps people out :)Annalisa.. 2.5 kids?
