Hello @Faithinsearch, welcome to CChat 
Off hand, I would point you toward posting on the Family Forum, which you can find here: https://christianchat.com/christian-family-forum/
Perhaps someone like @CharliRenee will have a better idea for you? (and I'm sure she'll tell you if she does when she drops by).
God bless you!

1 Thessalonians 5
23 May the God of peace Himself sanctify you entirely; and may your spirit and soul and body
be preserved complete, without blame at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
24 Faithful is He who calls you, and He also will bring it to pass.

Whoa! That question sounds like it is loaded with explosives. It also sounds provocative, and not a little. It sounds like bait. If you are merely offering counseling, I suggest you modify your approach. Put something out front to that respect.
Anyway welcome to Christian Chat. I hope you enjoy your stay here.

Welcome Faithinsearch. Hmmmm... let me think. My first thought is wouldn't she be better helped by ppl in happily married homes. Let me explain. Will you give me a moment...
If you surround yourself with others who are unhappy, completely disgruntled, you will only be feeding that position that I assume you are in. I mean, wouldn't you rather find hope for a better, more satisfied union?
I would go to the family forum or miscellaneous and open up a real heartfelt conversation. Maybe even ask if others here struggle in their marriage. I bet most will admit that a good marriage takes working through the hard, not so comfy times.
I think there is not one thing wrong with seeking support when struggling.
Have you looked offline? Does your church have people you can reach out to?
I hope that you are ok and I am sorry to hear you might be having difficulties.
Also, thanks for joining us here. I hope you find what you are seeking. I will definitely lift you and yours in prayer.

She didn’t say she was unhappily married. Maybe her husband is just a busy guy. Maybe she is hoping to get some counseling in, giving...not receiving. Or, she’s looking for companionship for some emotional adultery? Perhaps another one post wonder? I think you guys scared her off. Way to go!

She posted then logged off a minute later, before anyone even responded. So I'm not seeing how that constitutes being "run off". It's easy to see how people may assume she's having marital problems. It's a much bigger stretch to think she was ran off. She received a number of supportive answers, and even IF they are wrong why would that run her off? And if she were to be ran off by a simple misunderstanding due to her own wording then she has problems anyways.

Being around people not in a similar position isn't always best. It can even be a source of frustration at times.
I've been to depression and mental illness forums and they tend to be the best support for those with mental illness. Because they understand how it feels. And know all the fruitless cliches that aren't helpful, and avoid them. And they don't criticize people for their struggle, or even for having a mental illness, as I've seen done so often here.
Also people who have been in an experience longer often learn more about how to cope. Coming here and getting marriage advice from singles and those in happy marriages is less likely to be of Real benefit than going somewhere with people who may have been in it for years and have already learned a lot through their experiences.
That's not to say people who are better off are of no benefit, but on average people who can relate are going to be a greater benefit than those who can't.
