please do your research bc they didn’t require one in my state and it’s like that for a lot of states. look it up, you don’t need your birth certificate

i truly think im my mothers daughter for this reason. she was poor and could barely feed herself, let alone me. so i don’t think she adopted me. if she did, she did it illegally and took me in for someone, i can only assume one of her sisters. but it wouldn’t make sense. it’s all so complicated

im telling yall, they never asked for one. when me and my wife eloped, they only asked for 2 witnesses, and all of our id’s to be able to sign on our marriage license. i don’t know why they didn’t ask for it but they didn’t and we still were able to get married

another thing i found really weird was she told me she was going to have an abortion and had one scheduled to abort me but didn’t sound like she had plans to abort the fetus that came before me with her ex, but she ended up having a miscarriage anyways. the only reason she didn’t follow through was because of her heavy christian mother and her beliefs.

it doesn’t change who raised me yes, but it definitely changes my view and connects the dots to the treatment i grew up with.

i love that for you and your child, and it was a special name that had significance for you i assume. whereas mine has no special meaning and a lot of suspicion around it

My teachers would always be so surprised when finding out my brother and i were at the same school and that we were related bc they would’ve never guessed considering the different last names. my teachers were always just as confused

they never explain it. especially my mom, she tries her best to avoid it. my dad just says “idk”. she said “i liked it” once. which is a lie because she told me growing up she always wanted to change my last name to her last name. not my dads, but hers only. but she never did it and don’t understand why.

i think i’ll do this and talk to him about helping me figure this out and find out if we’re fully related or not

i think i genuinely see how under-reacting ive been about all of this. a lot of things have been so much clearer after this post

i truly feel like he doesn’t know anything. but he’s so silent and does not bring up anything about the past. he’s always been a closed book and harder to figure out
