I still don't talk to my mother. I blocked her number.
Recently, I had a sister I ain't never knew about contact me on facebook and say we have the same father, I never knew him and just found out his last name.
Shortly after, I deleted my facebook account because I kinda felt like she was sharing all my pics with her side of the family and I'm not ok with being an open book to muhfuckas that ain't never (as far as I know

) reached out to be a part of my life. I'm only sharing shit with folks that I think deserve to be privy to it/me.
Her and I talked for a few months until it fizzled out, she seems to not quite understand where I sit as a product of a bad mother and an absentee father

Some stuff she just couldn't relate to. She's his oldest child(39 w/ 5 kids), and I'm his first son. I found out I have 1 other older sister & 3 younger brothers(1 by his wife, 2 by one of his sister's best friends). I talked to one brother on the phone, he's cool, he 22 and wanna come scope out ATL for a possible move.
New sister informed me that her father wanted to contact me and she told him that she'd have to ask me before giving him my number. I thanked her, I'm not sure I'm ready to talk to or meet him... still processing some thoughts. I would... I do.. I guess want to know, one day, exactly what happened between him and my mother. Maybe I would understand some stuff, behavior, whatever, a lil more.
She said he was working with a counselor to have a sit down session with all his kids on Dec. 20th because he wants to work on "his legacy" (she forwarded the text he sent her about it). That's part of why he was trying to contact me. I thought about it, but decided against it. Not sure that would have been a good first meeting/experience and I don't think that would have benefited me in the way I probably need/want.
After some recent events in my personal life, I realize that I was/am being very judgmental towards him, especially considering I didn't/don't know much about him. How could I judge this man when I done damn near been just like him in a situation not too unlike how I came about? And would probably be
exactly like him if circumstances hadn't turned out in my favor.
