Today, I met my paternal grandfather for the first time. I’ve spent the last three months tracking him down. I poured my heart out and told about how much this meant to me. He told me I had a nice rack and asked for a cigarette. FML

It obviously didn't mean that much to him. I've learned that blood relationships don't mean as much as the relationships you've chosen to have.

How can he mean that much to you if he hasn't even been in your life until now?

I don't think it's fair that so many people are saying you should have expected this... I mean, for sure, it was a possibility, but when he agreed to meet, I'm sure those kinds of doubts were eased, at the least. It really sucks that he acted the way he did, and I would not see him again if I were you. Your identity is not formed solely by biology, so don't let something like this mean more than it really does.

So the whole time you were pouring your heart out to him, he was checking out your boobs. That will teach you not to build up an imaginary standard that the people in your life have to live up to.

I like him! I wanna have a cigarette with him and talk about your rack he was probably joking

Agree with #36 but you also may want to consider that his brain is deteriorating and he's lost some ability to control what comes out of his mouth.

I am thinking of something witty to say, but really that just sucks. I'm sorry for the huge let down. =[

You must have a nice rack i wish i could see it

Guess there was a reason he was never in your life. I find it best to keep those estranged relatives estranged. Never met my maternal grandmother, but I've never lamented that since she was a drug addict who died and left her only daughter nothing.

Yep, now you know why he hasn't tried to search for you. On a bright note, scientifically, paternal grandfathers don't share genes with you. (Because he passed his Y chromosome to your dad... which you obviously did not pick up) Thank God, he's not genetically related to you.
