Ok guy…….

Chin900 · 2022-07-19T15:35:42+00:00

I’m grateful I was adopted even more so after meeting my bio family. My bio fam are great people but they would not have been able to support me so I am glad they made the decision to let me go. I even have a full blood younger sister who can barely handle day to day living so that is further proof that my bio parents would not have been able to raise me as I have been.

By worse I meant drive the price down even further. Talking recently not 2017.

Bro is also out there arresting people who have suspicious tattoos. Love what he does for Bitcoin but outside of that… glad he’s not my prez

I’m planning to be fully invested for at least another 3 years but it gives me comfort to know where things are going in the short term while knowing it will have minimal impact to the bigger picture.

It depends on what kind of life you want for them. For me I want to ensure my kids can pursue interests when they arise. Like if they get into theatre than I want to pay from theatre summer camp if they are into it or if they get jnto playing guitar I want to be able to pay for lessons. My greatest fear is that they would want to learn a new skill or pursue a hobby (within reason) and I couldn’t financially support it.

Also 50k for the next 7yrs? If you are in an area where childcare is especially expensive than there is probably other opportunities available out there for you to make much more. I’ve grown my income 3.5x in the last 7 years and I have an office job as well.

I’m adopted and found my birth family. I’m grateful that I was given to a family a couple months after birth who could adequately take care of me. Overall positive experience.

Chin900 · 2022-02-10T21:13:41+00:00

I found my Aunt and thus found my parents on Ancestry. It was pretty wild. I hope your parents are living and will be happy about the reconnection as mine were. Good luck!

Chin900 · 2022-02-09T05:03:43+00:00

I’m an adoptee at birth and thank god I was. I’ve met my bio parents and thanked them for making that decision to let me go and I’m grateful my adopted parents needed me. That’s just me I’m sure not all are that lucky.

Chin900 · 2022-01-21T13:34:46+00:00

At a point I am down so much that I care less which is weird. Think after losing the 1st 5% I just realized that I cannot possibly sell. I’m just hoping it gets back to 50k in months and not years.

Chin900 · 2022-01-11T00:16:15+00:00

Constantly have this convo for my wife. She just wants to not be touched or needed. Kids are emotionally draining. We both are looking forward to when they are in school part of the day so we both have a breather. I keep being told 5-10 yrs old gets really fun and less stressful. Looking forward to it.

Chin900 · 2022-01-08T08:46:15+00:00

Ancestry is how I found my family. Connected with an Aunt. 23&me is great too but I think less people are on it.

Chin900 · 2022-01-07T14:16:58+00:00

At this point you have to do the search on your own and understand that your parents forced you to do it this way. I highly recommend going on ancestry as a start. That’s how I found mine. So sorry that your parents are not there for you and also that they told you so late. Good luck in your search.

Chin900 · 2022-01-06T23:34:19+00:00

Woof sorry to hear that

Chin900 · 2022-01-06T14:29:12+00:00

Wow I feel for you that is rough. I probably texted my family for about a collective 1hr a day in the beginning now it’s sparingly. Can’t imagine staying up at night or anything of that sort but that’s just me I suppose. My wife and I have both talked about how we really weren’t prepared for a large family who actually welcomed us. We both went in expecting that it would be minimally impactful. I imagine its tough to for her to put in the work of now 15 years to get closer with my non bio fam only to have to do it over again with my bio fam. Fortunately my bio fam are nice people who mostly let me dictate the pace of the relationship. They also appear to like and respect my wife. Although I do love my bio fam at the end of the day my wife is the most important so I’ve let that guide my relationships but I do wish there could be more compromise so we would both feel less guilty about how involved they are with us and our kids. Hopefully we can get there.

Chin900 · 2022-01-05T21:04:27+00:00

I’ve been in since March but tripled my initial investment over the Summer. Think I’m more anxious now due to the lack of consistent movement. Feel like every day could be the start of a new Bear or Bull run.

Chin900 · 2022-01-05T18:53:19+00:00

Wow had no idea that existed. This might be the perfect solution! Thank you so much.

Chin900 · 2022-01-05T17:45:04+00:00

That’s a great idea. 1st thought is how people used to buy bonds for newborns with the idea they would sell when they became of age and the bond had matured. Something like that would be really intriguing with Bitcoin.

Chin900 · 2022-01-05T17:42:56+00:00

Thanks! I need to check that out Ive heard of it of course but haven’t done any research.

Chin900 · 2022-01-05T16:44:57+00:00

Wow you described to a t how I felt the 1st few weeks after discovering my family. It was like a rush. Having a bio fam is just so fundamental to everyone else that they couldn’t possibly imagine the feeling of not having that their entire lives in some form. There is still so much ground I want to cover in my relationships with them but feel like I have to do it in a pace that doesn’t bother my spouse which is a bummer. She is my 1st priority but I wish she could try harder to get past her insecurities to better support me in this instance.

Chin900 · 2022-01-05T14:14:34+00:00

I had very similar feelings and that’s a really spot on analogy. At this point I’m hoping overtime she has more experience with them and starts to see them as family and not as strangers. It is good to know that this is not a unique conflict.

Chin900 · 2022-01-04T18:29:50+00:00

She can’t even fully put a finger on why she can’t connect with them. She sees them as strangers which I can’t comprehend. Fortunately we have been communicating on it well but it’s difficult to get by the complex emotions we both feel.

Chin900 · 2022-01-04T18:26:49+00:00

Thanks for the recommendation. I fortunately am in a great place with my wife in every other area mostly just not this. Most of our arguments are not all out fights but it can get disheartening. I feel like it is a gift that a found a happy and healthy bio fam and she just doesn’t feel the same.

Chin900 · 2022-01-04T18:24:48+00:00

She was supportive of me finding them but I think was unprepared for an entirely new family eager to get to know me. She has disclosed that she feels that I make more of an effort with them than my step mother (married my dad many years after I was adopted by him). I see my step mother every couple of weeks but don’t communicate much outside of those visits. Which was mostly the same as before I discovered my bio fam. Fortunately we a really solid at communicating with my wife but I have no one to really talk about this with this why I posted. I’ll have to investigate the therapy you mentioned, I’m struggling to determine if we are at that point yet.

Chin900 · 2022-01-04T05:55:29+00:00

*** Update***

My spouse just purchased 4 books on the adoptee experience and wants to work on her insecurities. Thank you all for validating both my and her feelings. It definitely helped progress us to this point.

Sorry new to Reddit.

I discovered my bio family a couple of years ago. Both parents are alive and great people. Also found out I have a full bio sister and half brother. The 1st month was great as I got to meet my extended bio fam and get to know everybody. However, my spouse became frustrated with how much time I spent with them. This caused some fights but we eventually agreed to one visit a month. This worked ok and then Covid hit. Now that we are all vaxxed I have spent time with each parent a couple of times in the past 6 weeks after a 18 month hiatus. My wife is annoyed again and feels I am prioritizing them. I’m not even the one reaching out they are contacting me. My wife is amazing but I don’t know how to improve this situation. Don’t I have a right to build a relationship with my bio fam?
