dissapointed :-(

CasaRosada · January 2015

At the end of December DH and I were contacted by a woman wanting to make an adoption plan. She's due at the beginning of April. We've been texting. I've talked on the phone with her a few times. We even drove 2 hours away to meet with her. All was going well and (against my better judgement) I allowed myself to get excited and got my hopes up.

Yesterday she called me. Her aunt has a friend that wants to adopt. so...she is going to talk to the aunt's friend and unless she really dislikes them, she's going to go with them. I want her to do what she wants, the best choice for her. I am happy for her. However, I am extremely dissapointed for myself. I am so sad about this. This is the first real "action" we've had since we became home study approved a year and a half ago.

No on IRL really gets it so I thought venting here might make me feel a bit better.

I'm sorry. I am just starting out but I can imagine that this is one of the most terrifying parts of the process. Big hugs to you.

I'm really sorry about the situation. I can imagine how disappointing it would be.

I mean, I guess it's better to have found out now just one month into it than further down the road...but it still sucks. Majourly.

Ah, adoption is so tough mentally.

I'm so sorry. I hope you get your match and baby soon. I can't imagine the emotions you must be feeling right now.

I agree. I'm so sorry.
