Now that I live in VA, I've done a search and found his address. I am fairly certain he has a daughter who also lives in DC. I also found this potential half sister on facebook (who looks a lot like me) and have tried to contact her but she does not respond. I try not to think to think about it but I'm 99% sure I have a half sister about 10 miles away. Sad situation.

Wow, so sad. sorry this happened to you. more good people than jerks in the world, though, so try to forget about the ones you're (unfortunately) related to and focus on the good ones.

I lost my virginity against my will to a guy I dated a few months prior. I was in college and had way, way, way too much to drink that night. I woke up with him having anal sex with me. I couldn't move my body. I just cried. I honestly don't even remember if I said "no" outloud, or loud enough to be heard. The only person I have told is my husband. Because of this event over ten years ago, I struggle with sex that is ANYTHING but soft and romantic--so I'm not much of a vixen in bed I'm afraid because it makes me feel dirty (I'm working on it though!). I never told my mom or sister (who I tell everything) because blame myself and am so ashamed I didn't fight like hell. That happened at my 19th birthday party.

You did not lose your virginity against your will. You were raped. You were obviously too drunk to give consent. I am so sorry.

My 25 year old mentally challenged uncle raped our collie multiple times. Eventually the dog died from constipation and my uncle confessed.

DH found out at age 18 the man that raised him was not his father. His mother never told him that she was married for 10 years before he was born, and that his real father was her first husband.

When DH was 18, he received a call from a man stating he was DH's real father. He ended up meeting this man who had tons of baby photos and another birth certificate with a different last name. DH confronted his mother, and she denied it at first but she eventually caved. They had a paternity test done and it turns out the 1st husband was DH's biological father.

Things between them are better now, but not sure why my MIL thought she could keep this a secret forever?

My mother, who passed away when I was 14, was physically and emotionally abusive. Nowadays she'd probably have been diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder or Bipolar II. Back then people just said she had a "strong personality" or was "high strung." Despite her failings I miss her every day of my life.

Anymore?

My father went to prison for 3 years. He was CIA and the prison was in another country so we could never talk about it. He has since passed on.

I was raped at gunpoint when I was 14. I am a guy. Only my wife and a counselsor know.

When I was 11, me and a friend were molested and flashed by a 19 yo guy we knew from camping every summer. My parents found out because we told an older girl who he had recently raped, and she told the owner of the campground, who went to my parents. The man was kicked out for life, but no charges were ever filed, and for years we were threatened by him (through his cousin who also camped with us and was our age, that he was going to come back and kill us) When I was 13, I was raped by another 19 yo guy I knew fom the same place. When I was 18, I was raped several time over 3 months by my boyfriend at the time. There's a family rumor that my father raped his sister, but most of the family doesn't believe since he was supposed to have been working in a different state when it supposedly happened. My fathers family is split over who believes and who doesn't.

Can't someone be an inbred without having to tell all, you see one inbred you seen them all

SILENCE!

Many of us have not knowingly seen an inbred.

I went to high school with a girl whose parents were first cousins. This girl and her brother were both very smart but very off socially. Very strong family resemblance for all of them.
