AIBU?

So recently I had my Birthday!
I am adopted and every time I have a birthday I often wonder if my Birth parents think of me? more so my birth mum as I am not sure my birth father even knows about me.
but every birthday I think does she think of me?
My adopted family are very dismissive and wont even entertain any speak of her, they just cut me dead. I sort have always felt like I have been treated differently like not been invited to family stuff because in their eyes I am not family, but oddly enough one of the members who did not invite me to a wedding are now going down the adoption route after finding out they cannot have children!
My adoptive parents have natural children and in some ways I have always been made to feel like I am not one of them.
Anyway for my birthday my friend and I had an email reading and the lady told me that my birth mother thinks of me (I never said i was adopted)
AIBU to want to know more about her? I always get made to feel so guilty about it WWYD?
TBH my head is fucked over this

YANBU at all. I am also adopted and sought out my birth relatives-turns out they all knew about me which shocked me!
Beware if you do look to meet her-it wasn't a complete bed of roses!!!!
Best of luck

WTF!!! Your adoptive family have left you out of family events cos your adopted? I am speechless. So they don't want you to find your birth family but then refuse to treat you a full member of their family. If you want to find your birth family you must do it.
