I feel sorry for the person who has to sit in the middle seat next to her on her flight home. something tells me she did not fly first or business class - and 300 pounders don't fit in coach class seats.... it's a long way to Tipperary, but it's a longer way from LHR to the USA.

well she is your biological mother so technically you still love her anyway. it isnt such a bad thing. I mean she did give birth to you.

"picture of the American dream"

You don't know the details of OP's adoption, so you guys should chill out with all the assumptions. OP's bio-mom may not have given her up, she may have been taken for extrenuous reasons. The bio-mom may have cared about her, but if it's not an open adoption, especially in international cases, it's harder to contact the child, and the adoptive parents may have made it where she couldn't. So 1), you don't know if she cares or not. 2) Meeting your birthchild from 18 years ago is exciting and challenging, the bio-mom may be struggling to connect. If OP is about 18, the bio-mom may have assumed the girl emjoyed Twilight, as many young girls and young adult girls do- she may mean well. Although that (^) is just possibilities, the point is: you can't just assume things about OP, or her mother, etc.

Psh, who likes Edward Team Jacob is the way to be! Unless your over 20 then you shouldn't be into twilight.

I apologize on behalf of Americans everywhere!! But on the bright side at least you weren't raised by her right??

well maybe you like tacos

The worst part: she's American...

I can. My deduction is simple. Op has nothing in common with her birth mother. She was raised in a culture that "birthed" America. England and America have always had an interesting relationship. Despite that, Op's mother traveled a great distance to see her birth child and to do something she enjoyed. SHe tried sharing it with her bio kid and the kid looked at her, saw only a 300 pound American and judged her.
