Comment on Ontario Adoption Disclosure Laws - Change for Children and Parents by cheryann

In 1991 I had a baby girl and gave her up for adoption. My gratitude and love for the adoptive parents is unwavering, however the promise they made to me was that they would send me an occassional pic of her and that once she turned 18 years old they would give me contact information.

None of those promises were kept. I live in AZ and she was raised in Long Island, NY. If you have any information that would be helpful for me find her I would appreciate it very much.

Sincerely,
Cheryl Kermmoade

Taylor,

I know it will sound like a pure cliche, but honestly, I’ve gone through a hard break up, and I know how painful it can be…But believe me, things always happen for a reason and usually in the end you’ll know that it was for the best…

It is going to hurt, from the sound of it you were very close and it’s only natural to miss someone and go through the rollercoaster emotions…My advice? Just allow yourself the time to heal…Accept the pain, because if you deny it or try to fight it, you will only be lying to yourself and the pain will still be there; it will just be burried under denial…

Allow yourself to feel whatever it is that you’re feeling, embrace it… and from personal experience, you will see that eventually you will realize that the pain disolved and instead of it there is acceptance and understanding and trust in the universe, that it knows best.

If you ever want to talk add me on Facebook. =)

With Love,

Leyla

Very true I get that all the time as well. Everyone is busy but I believe if you really care enough and want to do something you will make time. Next time I will bold the important stuff.

I wish you had made the last line in bold, since I tell people that, they agree, and then go right back to saying ‘too busy to call back, too busy to do this or that’..such a true statement.

Curious about what made his so great? Also curious about why you would be crying over someone who has admitted that they don’t want to be with you..don’t you deserve more? And finally, very curious about why you feel that you need a guy around you on your bday when you have real friends and family around you on your special day?

Maybe you feel a low self worth in that if you don’t have him, then would you ever find someone who would want you? The answer is yes, for sure..in fact I KNOW.

Taylor,

I absolutely sympathize with your situation! First you can delete friends from Facebook. Go to your friends list, find him and look for the X on the right side.

I had a similar experience years ago. What I learned from it was to not depend on anyone else for my happiness. I was alone for a long time and learned to make good use of the time getting to know myself and working on myself and my dreams. I’m now living many of them.

In answer to the questions on whether to still be friends and all - I would recommend you listen to your gut, your instinct. If it doesn’t feel right, don’t do it. And ask yourself why you do it perhaps.

I’m on facebook, if you’d like to be my friend.

That’s a great post Sanjay and I agree with some of what you say but I have to disagree on a couple things.

It’s true that when you are in a relationship with someone you expect certain things like the birthday treat or appologies etc. And if you don’t get what you expect, you become upset and frustrated! But this is when you have to communicate with your partner and explain to him what you expect of him and why you got mad! Especially at the beginning stages, everybody is so different and have so many different backgrounds, approaches, to relationships, you have to be clear and show the person what you want to get into.

I think that’s the biggest problem in relationships, people aren’t open enough with eachother and they let it go and get angry in the future and let it all out, or simply give up if they don’t get what they expect… Relationships are about learning and growing together. If he or she doens’t get it the first time and continues to dissapoint you then perhaps he/ she isn’t the one for you. If they love you they will learn from how they didn’t meet your expectation, and know for next time! If a person truly cares and is really getting to know you and knows what makes you happy, then they will do whatever that may be! People grow and learn from eachther.

I do agree with you when you say to attract a person that will meet your expectations!! The question is how do you do this? I’ve written a list of all the things that would make me happy in a guy for example…..how else would you attract someone who will truly make you happy? Any other ideas?
