A cousin informed me that I have a long-lost sister my parents had given up for adoption before they got married.

Story 11

I had always felt like the odd one out in my family. I didn’t look like my siblings, didn’t share many interests.

But I worked hard, and graduation day finally came. At the ceremony, they called my name, and my family erupted louder than anyone else’s.
Afterward, my mom pulled me aside and gave me a letter. She said I was adopted, and they never told me because they didn’t want me to feel “other.” She said love, not blood, had always made me theirs.

Story 12

My grandma found out a few years ago that her dad doubled up and had two children with another woman.

This absolute joker named the kids the exact same names as my gran and her brother, so he never had to worry about mixing up names. © Ok-String6517 / Reddit
