I have felt like that about my family since I was a kid and I'm 28 now. I'm not adopted although sometimes I wish that was my excuse for the way my family treats me. I have always been treated like I didn't belong by everyone, but my mom. They've always tried to cause me problems for as long as I can remember so I just stay away. Every family has their problems I doubt you were adopted. Just hang in there it'll get better and if it doesn't then talk to them maybe it's something that everyone can work on together. Good Luck!

Depends on where you are in life right now. We can go thru phases. I was adopted yet I don't remember not knowing. It was never a secret. I had a younger brother who my adoptive parents had after adopting me. I was allways an outsider w/the family because of me being me--mostly a stubborn rebel. I am now a parent and occasionally I catch myself acting like my parents that raised me. I am happy to report that I am not the oppressive closed minded butt-head my parents often were, but I have moments. I'm not sure if I answered your question, but good luck. It may just be you are looking for some identity in life.

No. everyone feels that way at some point. In my family I am the youngest by 16 yrs. (my sis is 16 yrs older than me)
I always felt like an outsider because I was smarter than my family and it seemed like I knew so much more than them. I saw them as uneducated rednecks where I was born in the suburbs of WA and saw myself as sophisticated and cultured.
Now I realize that I belonged there all along. Everyone has a different personality and its important to embrace the differences in your family.
If you are really concerned you dont belong, then tell your parents. I'm sure they can tell you all about how you were born, because every mom has a story about their kids birth... and that can put all your fears to rest.

no.it's normal for you to feel this way.i've felt that way alot with my family.i've felt like i'm SO different from my siblings and felt like i didn't belong cause i don't really look like anybody in my family.but they ARE your family.just try hanging out and bonding with them more.chances are you haven't been spending that much time with them and you feel"out of the circle".Take time and get to know you family again and where they're in their life,etc.Hope i made you feel better!

I suppose anything is possible....that doesn't make it probable.
Everyone is different. I have four daughters, all VASTLY different, and with varying personalities. So you're unique. That's good.

No, it doesn't matter either way. If you were adopted, you are still their family no matter what...if you were biologically theirs, they love you jsut the same.

All I can say is that I never related well with any of my relatives either.

you need to make more of an effort to "fit in" with the rest of the family - it is probably doubtful that you are adopted.
