I met my father after 20 years.... When we first started communicating, it was like he was there all along. It was just natural. A relationship either happens or it doesn't. You can't force it. Just talk and hang out and see how it goes. If you can't build that TV/movie-type relationship, then build one that is comfortable for you.... :-) Good luck!

I am happy for you. That you were reunited with your mother. I would say try to do some mother daughter stuff together like go out to eat or something. it will come slowly in your relationship to have a strong mother daughter bond.

well i've always had my mother but not my dad I just met him cause he's been in prison all my life 17 years later he comes down for a family reunion and I met him his new wife and his step child which is probably about 4 or 5 i don't know It was hard and I think I did well because it couls have been worse : )
We cried and talked and all and now he is back in texas where he lives...I don't think we are going to build a relationship or anything I think he just wanted to know everthing was okay with us....with your mother I would just take it slowly I couldnt have done anything without my mom but you might feel the same way about your dad... My mother raised me she was my everything and personally I think people need their mothers just talk to her find out everything about her cause daughters usually know almost everything about their mothers just move slowly not too fast. : ) God bless and if you need to talk or ask any kind of question im here usually on everyday but not weekends my email is iluvdrummond84@yahoo.com

I'm adopted, so if my natural mother should appear on my doorstep, I would have a lot of questions. You can't have a mother/daughter relationship, because she hasn't been your mother for so many years. I would say that just getting to know one another would be sufficient to start with. It would be interesting to find out if you are like her in any way. Part of me would like to know the answer to that one in my own life.

try to start a relationship, my friend had this same thing except it was 13 years. It is REALLY hard to start a relationship, you feel she has abandoned you and resent her in the begining but you CAN and WILL work things out.

Go out to dinner with her that the two of you can get to know each other. Just you two nobody else. She is going to have questions for you and you are going to have questions for her. Take your time with your questions but only do this for a limited time frame so that you can gradually get to know each other.

Yes.... I have been there.
There is a lot of emotion on both sides and a lot of catching up to do.
Take things slow and enjoy it........you have waited a very long time for this day to come.
Sooo happy for you both!!!!
