Childhood sweetheart is my half brother

[mrsfj13]

New to this!!!! I am 39!!! When I was 15 I had a new boyfriend when he introduced me to his mum she banned us from seeing each other and later told him that I was his half sister. She then phoned my parents who told me that I wasn't to see this. It again helps mum was crazy. He looks totally like my dad I am 100% sure it's true. I never spoke to my parents about it and have never shared this info with my siblings. I was in love with this boy for a couple of years we had a secret relationship as neither of us could accept this was true, but now our paths don't cross. We don't keep in touch. The thing is my parents are in their 70's and I have never been close to my dad since this although I have never told him why. I am saddened that I seem to have missed a father daughter relationship as a result but also feel guilty as I have cut my half brother out and he must feel awful too. Should I speak to my parents about this at the risk of splitting my whole family apart ???

if it was me I would.. If you don't have a great relationship, it may be a chance to heal.

I'm confused. She phoned your parents to say you can't see him...so they knew why.

Would your dad not realise this is why you aren't close?

Was this an affair your dad had?

I'm not clear what you're expecting from the conversation tbh.

Develope a interest in famliy history
Do a DNA test on ancestry , get your parents to do one as well .
Take it from there .
Speak to your dad before he dies

Do something before it's too late. Speak to your parents, get back in touch with your half brother of that's what you want. Don't sit around wondering what if. You deserve some answers and the truth

Sandyy2k all I know is she phoned and they said they had a crazy lady on the phone so you mustn't see her son anymore ignore everything she said. I never brought myself to mention anything again I was a confused hormonal 15year old. I don't know if it was an affair, one off etc etc I guess from
The conversation I want to know if people would leave their settled family and their parents to age together or if they would rock the boat and put themselves first and get answers

Wow. Have you sought professional help over this? It sound like the kind of thing you need to have thoroughly addressed with yourself before you can know you will be ok with whatever your parents say.
