What a great thing for your daughter.  I hope that she will learn to love all of them.  How exciting.  My oldest sister married a man with two children who had been given up for adoption.  For some reason she never told her three children when they came along.  They were totally floored in their teen years when a woman in her twenties arrived at their door and introduced herself as their half-sister.  Later the other adopted half-sister was also found and united with them.  By now they have spent twenty or so years loving each other and their families, and being united even though their father is long deceased.  It has been great for them.

I pray that your son will find someone who will love him for who he is and make his life wonderful.

I have two stepbrothers and one step sister that I have never met.

and I think my stepmom is still alive.  I would love to meet them so I could get a chance to learn more about my dad.

Sorry about your son.  He seems like a good person.  He will find someone that will appreciate him for who he is.

Re:

Wow! they really are contrasting stories. It seems amazing that on member of the family can be upbeat and excited while another is at his lowest ebb, but I guess that's the way things so often are. Commiserations to your son - she's treating him like dirt and it doesn't sound as if he deserves that. And congratulations to your daughter - I do hope it all works out well for her.

best of luck to your son.  As for your daughter, you're
taking the sibling reunion very well.  I have to admit,
I was jealous when my daughter found out she could
reach out to her half sister and half brothers.  I totally
felt left out of the picture.

Good heavens.......
it seems your daughter's father (sperm donor for what it's worth) was sowing more seeds than Johnny Appleseed!   Had he been in the navy?

Re:

That is great about your daughter finding out more about her father's side of the family...I had never thought about her having more sibilings than your children.

As you say love can be cruel. Hopefully your son bounces back quickly.

excitement and despair.......you really are torn in two and this may be one

time when face book really can bring healing and reunion.

But your son I do feel for because this woman is over the relationship and it hurts.

Lustor
A lot of emotions going around in your household at once time. Love is a decision that grows or does not. Your son can decide this is not the best choice for him and move on or he will be ill over this. I am sorry you are having all this to contend with at once.
