She did kill the other baby that belonged to the parents who raised me. Maybe she was worried how I would react, or shame. Guilt? Maybe she was going to reveal herself in time but had gotten so used to watching me from afar that she became comfortable that way.

Damn op, im sorry for misunderstanding you. I would attempt to talk to your dad about the situation. Maybe he knew her or something? If not then thats absolutely crazy, and i hope the best for you op!

No, don't be. These same thoughts keep swirling over and over in my head too. Would I have accepted her? That would make me a horrible person. But then again, the last time I was really loved was...my boyfriend.

Maybe I'll give him a call.

But that may only cause him more pain.

In my opinion, you have nothing to lose anymore. Get into therapy for shooting someone, but i dont think you will be seeing her anymore and plus you could focus on school again, id give it a trial run and if doesn’t work out you can always find someone and something else to do. And go try and help your dad, get him to some meetings if he’s willing. (It saved my life)

I will, and thank you for sharing your experience with me. It gives me hope knowing that maybe we can recover from this. He'll be able to forgive my mom, but I don't know if he'll ever be able to forgive himself.

It all comes with time, maybe point some “arrows” to start a new business? Keep his mind off some things for a bit and coax him in with therapy, might work and it might not but it never hurts to at least try. Good luck on your journey and who knows perhaps it leads to a part 2?

I really want to believe that will happen. And thank you, I'll keep you updated.
