Curosity or Obsession?

I can't figure out which one it is, but ever since learning I had a sister and I can have no contact with her I have tried to learn as much as I can about her. My grandparents have helped fill in a lot of the blanks, but the more I learn the more I want to know. I have found a few places on the internet that I am pretty sure it is her, but there is no picture and that is the one thing I really want. I think I am becoming obsessed with it.

Seeing as it you... it's undoubtedly an obsession (LOL!) Actually I think it's more then "curiosity" though. Some of it might be that we want what we're told we can have. More to the point, this is a person who is closely related to you. Why wouldn't you want to know what she looks like and as much about her as possible! I'm sorry the door seems to be closed right now.

(((Sniffles))) It has to be curiosity. Do your grandparents have a picture they are willing to give you???

I'm going to add a new word to the mix...it's natural! I think it is very natural that you would be curious and a little obsessed with the whole thing! She's your sister..and yet another "connection" with your bmom. I like the idea of asking your grandparents about a picture. How old is she? Do you know if she knows about you?? See, you have me curious now!!!!

Nope, she was the type of person that would hide when the cameras came out.

Did she manage to avoid all school pictures too?

Your sister's picture

If you know what high school she graduated from, you can try to get a picture from the yearbook.
I have gotten pictures from the school library . . they can either
e-mail it to you, or snail mail it.
You may want to give it a try.
