Hi,I gave up my daughter for adoption when she was a baby. She has now contacted me and we’ve met for a chat, I’m over the moon about it. The confusion and messy bit is her birth father. He’s been in contact with me sporadically over the years and got in touch a few weeks ago, I told him about our daughter contacting me and he asked if we could meet up for a chat, after resisting for a bit I agreed. We still seemed to have feelings for each other and have just spent a great weekend together, I’m single, he lives with someone. He said his daughter wants to contact our adopted daughter on face book, I asked him if she would wait a while.He''s now sent a text saying "Bye" What''s that about?
"If anyone is having troubles at school, don''t hesitate to drop me a line! Bullying/exam worries/applying to college or university, I can offer advice :)..."
"When it comes to "what if" maybe you need to stop looking in your rear-view mirror, because you're going to miss the turning on the road ahead..."
