I felt like it was expected and I said I would go. But I just could not make myself. My therapist suggested, if I did want to see any of them, to make it one on one and tell them I can't do large family things. I guess I picture my Mom in Heaven (Which I don't even really believe in) being dissapointed in me. Thank you for your kind words and encouragement, they (you) mean so much to me. xoxoxo Quote:

Yeah and animals dont talk back or judge, they listen and cuddle!!
HAHAH maybe thats why I spend so much time with my pets. On a side note, I am frustrated with my half sister, she texts me but doesn't call often and when she does, she dodges anything and everything when it comes to our mother. |

Maybe she feels put in the middle? Maybe try to have a relationship with her and don't mention your Mom? Does that make sense? Then she will know you value her for her. She can get to know her brother with no parental influence. Has she met your glider? Maybe she avoids calling because she has no idea what to say about your Mom? It is not her fault if your Mom is nto ready for this yet. In the long run, a sister is a wonderful thing to have! ![]() ![]() ![]() (for me, far better than parents)

Yikes! That must make it difficult to relax and be yourself with them. I wish you all peace, comfort, and acceptance. May they come to understanding, and may the journey be smooth.

Have you met your half sister in person? Maybe she wants to be close, but it all messed up having to deal with your mother and be in the middle. So sorry this is happening. I hope this year they will find understanding and you will get the answers you deserve! You deserve to know your heritage, your people, your history. You deserve happyness and acceptance! Quote:
![]() We did chat like 30 seconds, but you really made a great impression. I felt such warmth and strenth andf goodness talking to you! I was pretty overwhelmed too, we spent a lot of time hiding in our room. Ha. Thank you for saying that about my Mom. If she is out there, I hope she knows I try to honor her memory. My father told me I never loved her when I agreed to meet my bio parents and when he found out I was gay.

I would so love to meet you again sometime when we could actually sit down and talk, Jen. I've always been glad you found me and introduced yourself in Vegas, but we only had what, thirty seconds? And I was SO utterly overwhelmed that whole time; I'm sure I didn't say anything much that was even coherent!
So, it's been our goal from the beginning *or at least my goal and Gryph didn't say no, lol* to have a place where friends can come and stay. I don't know how long it'll take, but someday we'll do it. Quote:
I feel pretty sad about your thinking your Mom would be disappointed in you. I freely admit that I certainly have no idea what she would have thought while she was alive, but oh honey... after a person has died and is on the Other Side (however we might think of the place, Heaven or whatever), they can see and understand so much!! Your Mom's not disappointed in you! She wants for you what she always wanted for you--to be happy. She's watched over you as best she could, and she's proud of you. Why shouldn't she be? Why wouldn't any mother be proud of you? You're a wonderful person, honey. She loves you, she wants you to be happy, and she's proud of you. xoxoxox |
