Long Time, No See | Adoption Reunion Part 6

- In this heartfelt episode of my adoption reunion journey, I reconnect with my birth mother after months of being blocked. From the first words, "Long time no see," to sharing meals and meeting my birth father for the first time, this chapter captures the complex emotions of navigating a reunion. I was in full people-pleaser mode, driven by fears of abandonment and the weight of past trauma. I even got a glimpse into a connection with two sisters I had never met. Through all of this, I wrestled with the push and pull of wanting to connect while losing sight of my own needs. Join me as I reflect on this pivotal chapter in my reunion story.

Thank you all for watching this chapter of my journey. Have any of you experienced an adoption reunion, or reconnected with family after years apart? I’d love to hear your stories. Did you pick up on any of the subtle emotions I was working through, like my fear of abandonment or people-pleasing? If you've been through something similar, how did you handle it? Let’s talk-I’m not perfect, and I’d really love to hear your perspective. 😊
Shell, The attention to detail makes for a captivating story. You are so relatable and your story is heart wrenching. I keep rooting for you in each episode.
Thank you so much! 😊
I feel your pain so much. I just can't understand how two people could think they could get back together and be such a loving couple knowing full well. They gave a child up and the things that that could do to that child like unbelievable
You are very brave. 🙏💐 I was fortunate to have wonder birth parents who were together 60 years before my mom's passing. Please take all the time you need to grieve for that little girl still inside of you. 💖💖💖
Thank you 💖
I met my birth mother a few times. It was always awkward.
Your inner child was screaming at the top of her lungs that what happened wasn't fair. How you couldn't just walk in and be normal and light like they could because their life wasn't flipped on its head like yours was.
