I almost divorced my husband 3 months into my reunion but thank god i did not. Actually my son convinced me not to, and i am very happy i listened to him. I believe that reunion just turns your world upside down, esp if you relinquished during closed era, as I did. You know nothing about your child, then boom, all of a sudden the child is back in your life, it really throws you for a loop. I have been with my husband for 21 years and he knew about my son, but of course we never spoke of him. I mean I had a lawyer, had papers drawn up and everything and I am really glad that I rethought the whole thing. Now that my reunion has fallen apart, my husband is the only person besides my therapist (and here!) where I can be honest, and he has been very supportive and loves my son like his own. However reunion can make you reevaluate your life and all the decisions you have made since relinquishment.
