[quote=Anonymous]OP, I urge you to reach out outside of Facebook, even if that's just sending a message with your email address saying you'd like to talk if she would. Facebook just seems like too casual a medium for this. I'm not part of an adoption triangle myself, but just outside - my parents had a child as teenagers and put him up for adoption, then married and had me several years later. When they told me about my brother I was in my 20s, and after some thinking I found him via adoptionsearch.com. I worried quite a bit about what he might think about being contacted by the "other" kid, but it's really turned out to be a great thing - unfortunately we're on opposite coasts so we don't see each other often but we're in regular contact via email and Skype. As great as connecting has been, it was definitely very emotional for all involved - that is why I don't think Facebook is the best medium for reaching out. Good luck to you, OP. [/quote]
