• I Met My Biological Father for the First Time

  25 years on this planet and I had never met my biological father.  It was an interesting experience.  I was going to my cousin’s Bar Mitzvah celebration on Saturday and I knew my bio-dad would be there, so I made sure I went because I was very curious.  I had no idea what I would feel or what I would say.  When he saw me he ran up to me and said, “let me hug my son” and he hugged me and started to cry and I guess I got all emotionally worked up also about the whole thing I started to cry also.  I was completely shocked that I cried.  I didn’t know it meant that much to me or that I would be so overwhelmed by the whole thing.  We talked a bit, but I really didn’t ask him much, I didn’t want to feel like I was interrogating him.  To fast forward to the end, we exchanged phone numbers and I told him I would call him and we could meet for lunch or dinner one day in January (when I’m between semesters) to catch up.  And as a side note, I do have a step-dad who has been by father basically all my life and no one will ever replace him
