Default Men's Support Group

I have been the lone ranger so far in this journey. I haven't been to any support group meetings but I would really like to meet with other men who are going through this journey. Not that I don't take alot of what the ladies on here have to contribute, but I think there are different challenges for men who decide to make this life-changing decision. Maybe we could start another sub-board or just email each other... anyone interested?

Sign me up. We could also consider a yahoo group if they don't have a mens support group. OH has a mens section on it.
