    @ Mrs_Deeds

    I've known a lot of adopted people throughout my life and I have to say- for some reason I feel fated to be around so many. They have all touched my life deeply and in so many different ways. One of my best friends is someone I've known and loved like a sister since I was a 18. She was adopted, her mother was 14 when she was born and gave her up at birth- and she searched for her birth mother and father and found them around five years ago.
    Obviously- there are always very heavy duty reactions upon reunion- if there are any reunions- so many variables and so many people impacted by the bomb of a suddenly appearing child that might have been an ultimate secret or completely unknown. I wish I could tell you it's always happy and wonderful :\ For my best friend it's been a mixed bag. She doesn't regret finding her biological family but it certainly added to her..increased depth of understanding life and it's funny jokes lets say?

    P.S.
    I also love to play video games, am afraid of the dark irrationally, been with my husband since 17, have music around me constantly and am phobic about all bugs/insects/spiders etc.

    Good luck on either meeting your father or deciding to let him come to you.

    I know. I was told that a few years ago. I asked her about her birth certificate and when I saw it I was like "Thats when I was born" She said when my parents told her the day I was born she metioned her birthtime and they freaked out since it was the same. The only thing that wasn't the same was our birthweight.

    1. Ive dated my current bf 3.5 times (dont ask about the .5) since I was 17. I'm 23 now and he's 28
    2. My bff died in 2006, over 6 months after a terrible falling out and 3 days after I'd forgiven him, and I think about him every day
    3. I always tell people when they show up in my dreams, no matter how awkward the conversation turns out
    4. I LOVE horror movies, especially bad ones...my bf hates them.
    5. I was raised by trekkies and will proudly say that my bf and I have spent a week watching the entire TNG series on dvd (he owns them)
    6. I grew up watching WWF wrestling and now I go to a ton of local circuit wrestling shows to meet the guys I grew up watching
    7. (related to #6) My mom and I gave Rowdy Roddy Piper his first EVER bday cake last year.
    8. I was probably under 90 pounds at some point in HS and all I ate then was candy if I ate at all & drank energy drinks like they were my lifeblood. I was force-fed by friends probably once every two weeks.
    9. Throughout elementary and middle school I was "the fat kid" and was beat up regularly by the guys
    10. I have The Lion King memorized and could probably recite it.
    11. I started keeping a scrapbook when I realized I was starting to forget things about my bff after he died.
    12. I used to have half of my head shaved.
    13. I once lived with one of my closest friends in HS for 3 months.
    14. When I got my first full time job, I would randomly take a few days off to leave the state and a couple times I went to NY for concerts.

    18. I found out when I was 14 that the dad that raised me wasn't my bio-dad, and met my bio-dad last year.
    19. I also found out I had a half brother last year
    20. I had a back surgery for a pilodonal (sp?) cyst in HS. They scooped out a chunk of my back and had to stuff it with gauze to allow it to heal. It never healed completely so I have a weird slit of missing skin on my lower back. The cyst was almost attached to my tailbone, so you can imagine where this VERY embarrassing scar is
