How did he know? (Flashback of my Adoption continued…)

So, my boyfriend, A.

He claimed at first that the person who disgracefully shared the news with him about me being adopted was a patient he did oral surgery on at the office he worked at here in our hometown.

He said even if he could remember what her name was, he couldn’t tell me. But he descriptively described her as well as he could as far as her appearance went.

He told me that this “patient” was from our town, and obviously knew me well enough to know that I was adopted.

I could not figure out by his description who in the world this woman was that was going around sharing my little secret.. that I didn’t even know about!!

After about two months of finding out of my adoption, my cousin told me she thought she had figured the puzzle out of who this mystery woman was.

Come to find out, this “patient” turned out to be a family friend of my parents. I could NOT believe this.

First, my boyfriend lied to save his own ass from this woman of whom he made a “promise” not to tell who she was. Second, this woman was a FAMILY FRIEND.

Why would she just go around telling random people about my adoption? Especially my BOYFRIEND at the time.. In her defense, she claims that she thought I already knew about my adoption, but no, I didn’t.

Doesn’t matter. She had NO right to go around telling others about MY business. No matter who she talked to, if I knew about my adoption, NOTHING. Under no cirumstances did she have the authority to say that.

Funny story, right?

“How’d you find out about your adoption?”

“A family friend told my boyfriend at the time who told me”.

Still to this day, I refuse to talk to this woman and I forever wish I would’ve found out a little, teeny, tiny bit different than how I did.

I believe everything happens for a reason per God. But why this? Why this way? Maybe if it wouldn’t have happened like it did, I would’ve never found out. Maybe my adoptive parents would’ve never came out themselves and told me and I would’ve went my entire life not knowing.

That can’t happen now due to a blonde haired woman who can’t keep her trap shut. Maybe this was revealed the way it was because of how things are planned to work out for my future.

God has a mysterious way of working things and I don’t doubt Him for one minute from the things He does. I question “Why this way?” but I know it was for a specific purpose and reason so I just pick my feet up and move on.
