Well, I got to meet me long lost brother today!

I hadn't seen him in 20 years till yesterday in the parking lot of a Bunnings. He had parked his car next to mine and some how recognized me. Got to talking, exchange particulars and found out he was living on the same street as me a few blocks down.
He has 4 kids 3 pet rabbits and a beautiful wife. Laughs easily. Went grey early like all us mob on dads side.
We caught up over a chess board, yarned and caught up on what's been happening in our lives. Well more him then my side but that's okay I'm pretty boring. His missus rolling her eyes at us, since we're both sniffling with hayfever. 😅It's been a good day.

Why the long break? Im having a similar situation with my sister. But only chatting on messenger. We haven't spoken in over 20 years ..to each other. ..its not like we took vows of silence or anything like that. 🥴

@Jayciedubb Didn't know where he was living. Anyone I knew who might of spoken with him didn't know either. He wasn't on any social media platforms. We had each others numbers but his stopped working. I thought he had blocked me. His wife reckons that's not the case. He had a very bad childhood and his drug use has taken its toll.

@Thevy29 I see. ..so it was a fade away type of a separation
