Do you have a half-brother or half-sister? When did you know about him or her? Have you met? What's your first reaction? How do you treat them? I had a half-brother from my father's side. I've only know about him the day when I first saw him. I was seventeen back then. He came to look for my father to announce that he was about to get married. I was very happy to know that he was my brother because I've heard so much about him during my high school years. He also graduated from the same school as mine. I treated him as my own brother whether he is only in my father's side.

I have technically two half brothers. One i don't know very well because we live in different states but we did spend time together when we were growing up and i treated him no different then i do my full brother. My second half brother i was raised with so inless its brought up it never really occurs to me that we have different fathers and i treat him no different than my full brother. I love all my brothers whether we have different mothers or different fathers.

I have a half-sister whom I grew up with. She's just as much my sister in every way as she would be if she were a full sister. I'm glad to hear you got to know your brother.
