Woman learns after six years of dating that her boyfriend is her biological brother

When you meet the love of your life, there are many things you might hope for, but one woman got much more than she expected.

Encountering ‘the one’ can feel like an extraordinary moment, where you find a deep connection with someone for the first time.

However, in this case, it seems that the overwhelming sense of attraction and bond stemmed from something other than romantic interest.

The woman discovered, to her enormous shock, that her long-term boyfriend was actually her biological brother.

To make matters worse, she clarified that he was not just a half-brother, but a full sibling.

They shared both parents, not just one.

By the time this revelation came to light in their relationship, they had already slept together, leaving her completely at a loss for what to do.

How could they not have known?

The reason is that both of them were adopted and unaware of their true parentage.

In a Reddit post, she explained: “I just found out that I’ve been dating my biological brother for six years.

“I am 30 and my brother is 32. I’m just going to call him my boyfriend for the majority of the time while I type this.

“I feel weird about this. I was adopted as a baby but I didn’t know that I was adopted until I was in high school.”

She further explained that neither she nor her boyfriend/brother knew they had been adopted until high school.

Despite this, she described their relationship as wonderful, writing: “We understood each other very fast. We were attracted to each other quickly. I’ve never met someone and felt immediate attraction and familiarity.

“Now I know that the comfort and familiarity is because he’s my brother. Not my half brother.”

She recounted the moment she realized just how closely related they were, writing: “I was excited to see what we were but before I could even get to that.

“I saw that we were siblings. I was SHOCKED to say the least. I only just found out this information and I haven’t told my boyfriend.”

She added: “We have a house together and a whole comfortable life. I’m hoping that this test is wrong and will do a real test soon but I’m panicking. I still see him as the love of my life.”

What would you do in that scenario?
