Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Today, I met a nice girl and decided to ask her out. Later on she showed me a picture of her with her family, she was wearing red and everyone else black. I said jokingly "you look like the adopted child" only to find out that her had parents died and she was indeed adopted. FML

Today, my dad introduced me to my half-sister. He'd only recently found out that he had another daughter by another woman, and had only just met her. She and I have been in the same class in school for the past three years. FML

Today, my mom dropped me off at a friend's house. Upon leaving, my friend's mom said how much I looked like my mother. My mother then replied, "That's funny, she was adopted." This was the first I'd heard of this. FML

Based on what? Unless she look strictly similar to you, the chances of being related is so slim. You might as well have just said "I can't fall in love, anybody could be related to me".

While that's scary, it can be cleared up pretty quickly with just a simple DNA test.

this is true even for people who were not adopted. how do you know your father didn't have a one-night stand?

I feel like the first statement still applies.

Shit, even if your parents are married, your mom may still have made you with someone else. I've always thought my dad wasn't genetically my dad. Yesterday I found old records that may point to my parents also lying about the year they got married... a month before I was born may have actually been a few months before my younger sister was born. At least I'm too estranged from my family to care about confronting them.

Well, get busy banging before your 23-and-Me results come back. It'll only be weird if you wild guess is right.

Based on what? I think you're being rather ridiculous.

We’re going to need some more information as to why you think she’s your sister.
