Ok this is going to be long I hope that is ok. I was adopted by my great grandparents. My Mom kept my older sister and gave me up. I always knew my birth mother since I was adopted by her side of the family. I knew who my birth father was,but not much else,other than when he signed the papers for me he had another woman pregnant at the time. Well fast forward to last Saturday,I was on the phone with my older sister(full blood sister) as she was telling me that out birth father's daughter had requested her on myspace! I was floored as she was. Well later that day I go onto myspace and there she was! I accepted her request and later that night she called me. I am happy to have met her and to find out I have 1 Older half brother and another younger half brother and sister. they always knew about my older sister because she had went to see our father when she turned 18,you know to ask all the basic questions in that sitution. Well I am a bit upset because my father has nothing to do with any of his kids now that he is in a new relathionship. I am happy because I have more half siblings. As when my mom gave me up she had my older sister still with her and then remarried and had 2 more girls and one boy. But it is strange that I am still uspet over the whole thing with my real dad? I mean he didn't even remember my name so that is why the kids only knew what the knew from my older sister. Isn't it crazy that she found us on myspace? How would you deal with something like this?

I dont think its strange that you are still upset over your dad. He did not remember you name and you were trying to make a connection with him.I do not really know how I myself would deal witha situation like yours. But I would not let them drag me down. Keep the good part of your family close to your heart and let the rest go. just be happy.

I am glad that she has found you, hope you can become close. She did not do anything. Don't hold grudges toward her. If you are mad at your parents, so be it. Start a new good relationship with your new found brother and sister.
