I’m happy I found my brother

But I constantly overthink
I shouldn’t but do. Don’t want to bother him. We finally met after not knowing each other all our lives. He didn’t even know I existed til our birth dad died. When we met it was awesome talked for a long time. He’s awesome. I don’t want to bug him though. I hope he doesn’t resent me for popping up or think i want anything from him bc I don’t. I just want to know him. He is family.

I think my siblings hate me

I don’t know why. I was an asshole teenager yes but I’ve changed a lot. Both of them have always been what I like to call “frienders” my brother I don’t bother bc he works and is in his own world. He’s younger too. But my older sister I’m convinced she hates me. Like I just got diagnosed with the c word and didn’t want to tell her bc she likes being the center of attention. Literally, she had a biopsy and wasn’t diagnosed she had something else. Since I told her she’s barely spoken to me, through text, I never expect a call from her. But answer when she does call. I have saved this girl from being stranded across country twice in the past few years. I text her and told her how I felt and her response was “I haven’t been talking to many people” like what am I chopped liver. She will talk to me when she needs something. She will talk to me when her friends are saving her from holes she dug :\ makes me want to scream. But at this point I am not going to try and let it bug me.

What happens next? I’m scheduled for consultation next month. I’m mixed with emotions. Relieved to know. But still kind of scared. You’ve all been so supportive thank you 💜🥹

I have a biopsy tomorrow

They said I’ll be able to drive after. But I’m bringing my partner. I’m shook up. I asked the doctor if I should be scared. She said it’s very real so be prepared.
I’m not sure how to feel about this. I’m 33. My grandma had breast cancer twice.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated 💜

My family is awkward

I saw (33f)my cousin(38f) the other day, bc I was delivering I am a delivery person. So anyways, I kind of caught her off guard I was in a hurry so just said hello and gave her a hug. She asked how everyone was doing and I said they are good and I hope her family is good. Told her call me or text me on Facebook if she needs anything. She keeps to herself, as do I. Anywho I messaged her and apologized if I startled her and told her if you need anything or someone to talk to I’m here. & told her she’s always been a happy memory for me and the reason I didn’t end up a hoarder, and sorry couldn’t talk long. Her mom died a few years ago. I’ve kind of been the weird one, done my own thing. But I have never once asked them for anything and would never come to her house unless invited. So dunno why she left me on read.

She left me on read….
So I guess I will not say anything else just hurts my feelings she couldn’t have atleast said something…
Should I just say nothing else and not let it bother me…

**TL;DR;** should I let it bother me?

How do you bond with and get to know someone you haven’t met before? My half brother. I finally found him.

Our dad just pretty much ditched my mom back then and basically pretended I did not exist all of his life. Paid child support a handful of times so he wouldn’t go to jail. Never met or spoke to him.

I looked for my dad for years at random times but gave up after a while. Couldn’t find anything about him online until he died, he’d been going by his middle name the whole time go figure.

I Finally got into contact with my half brother I’ve been looking for for years, just couldn’t figure it out til I made a fb post in a local group, he’s nice, seems open to getting to know me, he said his dad was barely there for him. & was an alcoholic.

His ex wife said she wishes she’d have made our dad see me but in the end everything happens for a reason.

I’m relieved to know that my brother doesn’t hate me, all these years I thought he did. But turns out he didn’t even know I existed until a year after birth father died.

Ancestry.com sparked my brain to find him again now I have found a few cousins who would like to meet me, only issues is IM SO AWKWARD 😕

I hope they like me.

We all have big heads, it’s great lol

I’m friendly my humor is awkward obviously with the big heads comment.

What do I say? What do I ask? How do I begin a familyship after not knowing him these years?

My stepdad has been telling me for years I need to find my brother so our kids don’t have kids together lol.

I am tempted to text him again but have not. I don’t know what to say. I have a bad habit of rambling and he says he does also lol so we’re obviously related
