Hi there!

I think your feelings are quite normal - where's the proverbial trail of breadcrumbs leading directly to those for whom we search?

One thing to keep in mind is that many birth parents were told never to search for their children. In fact some were told it was WRONG to look or to expect any reunion. So, they built their lives on the assumption that no reunion would ever be possible. Even though times have changed, it's not so easy to undo the past. Feelings of guilt can play into it also.

I wish you luck in your search and hope that trail of breadcrumbs becomes visible soon!
