In a nutshell, I was adopted at two weeks old (I’m 48 now) and after finding my BM and her not wanting contact (fine, her choice etc), I’ve been trying to find my BD, but have been unable to find out anything about him.

I found out this morning that he died six years ago, a sad lonely alcoholic. He would have been 68.

Why do I feel so sad and upset for someone I never knew? All he ever was to me was a name in my adoption file. He lied to my BM when they met and he left her when she was pregnant (she was only 19).

I don’t know what I’m asking, my head is a bit fried that’s all Sad

Sorry OP. You feel sad and upset because you're a decent person. And you're sad for the relationship you should have had with the man he should have been.
How was your life after you were adopted?
I hope you have people around you now who love and care for you.
