Not knowing your biological parents can eat away at a person.

This woman waited until her adoptive parents had passed to track down her biological parents. But when she reached out to a biological sister on social media, she was ignored and blocked.

I’m adopted. AITAH for contacting my biological sister?

I am approximately 55 and was adopted at birth. I’ve spent my entire life wondering why I was given up for adoption and wondering if I favored my mother or my father.

My adoptive parents were absolutely wonderful. I love them with all my heart and didn’t start this journey until after they had passed away out of respect.

Through much research over the past several years, I tracked down a man that I am DNA linked to, and I believe it’s my father.

A few weeks ago, I was doing even more research and found that I was biologically linked to a woman that I believe is my biological mother.

I then learned that my biological mother and father are married.

I also discovered that these two individuals have two daughters which means I have full blood siblings.

This woman was blocked by her biological sister twice.

I was shocked and stunned to learn this information.

I reached out to one of the sisters on a social media platform and I was immediately blocked.

I then waited a few weeks and reached out to the same individual but with more information on a different social media platform. She responded to my message and then immediately deleted her message.

I answered her question because I had seen the message briefly, but I have heard nothing in return.

I am now asking myself if I am the jerk for reaching out to her in the first place. I am perplexed that she wouldn’t want to know that she has a sibling, so I wonder if she knows about my existence and just doesn’t want to deal with me.

Or is she just shocked and in denial and doesn’t know how to respond? Am I the jerk homewrecker?

Looks like biological sister is taking sibling rivalry to a new level.
