0:00.0 | Welcome to our slash best of redditor updates, where OP thinks that she's finally found her |
0:05.4 | long lost brother. Our next reddit post is from a relationship advice. I think I found my brother |
0:10.6 | who ran away from home nine years ago and we never found him, and I don't know how to approach him |
0:16.0 | in case it's not him. I'm a 23 year old woman, and my long lost brother is 21. For background, |
0:23.1 | my younger brother ran away from home when I was 14. Apparently, my mother beat him very hard |
0:29.6 | and told him to go away, he's not her child anymore after he broke a new TV while playing football |
0:35.1 | in the house. She said that she didn't mean it, and she was just disciplining him, and she said |
0:39.9 | that in the heat of the moment. My brother was always a troublesome kid, carefree, a little too |
0:45.3 | adventurous, but he had a good heart, and I loved him very much. At first, we thought that he would |

1:26.5 | dispatcher. One of the driver's names caught my attention a week ago. It's the exact same name |
1:32.2 | as my brothers. The driver came back about three days ago from a shipment, and I've been kind |
1:37.6 | of observing him, and he kind of looks like my brother. He resembles my dad. I haven't been |
1:43.5 | able to sleep for days wondering if I should approach him. What if it's not him? I'm a shy person, |
1:49.6 | and I'm really not good with people. Will you think that I'm crazy? Should I at least do some more |
1:54.4 | homework before I approach him? And if it is him, what should I tell my parents? Then about a |
