I found her!!! A friend recommended that I join this site when she learned that I was searching for a daughter I'd given up for adoption. When I created my profile, I found 6 potential matches. I sent messages to all 6 and got 2 responses. It took about 2 years because I was not a frequent visitor of the site. Of the 2 responses, 1 was definitely not a match. The other had basically the same information that I had surrounding the adoption. Which was minimal to say the least. We then decided that she would take a DNA test. I'd already taken mine. And the results were a match. According to DNA analysis, parents and children share approximately 50% of DNA. My daughter and I share 46.5% of our DNA. It's a match. I am very grateful that she was looking for me at the same time I was looking for her. Or I may not have ever found her. Thank you Adopted.com for making this happen.

Excellent service Initially reviewed with 1 star due to something I didn't understand. Upgraded to 5 now. Founder Katherine sent me a personal email explaining what I was concerned about. They really do care, and go through great lengths in proving this. You can trust that they only have our best interest at heart. I have never quite experienced service like this. I would greatly recommend them.

Reunited with my Birth Daughter! This site led to me reuniting with my birth daughter. She posted on a facebook forum and I had my profile in this forum for a few years. A person that saw my profile and her post linked us together. We were in contact within five days after my BD put her search post out there. She lives fairly close, we have already met in person and talk every day. She has quickly developed a close relationship with myself and my two older adult children. Do NOT give up! Keep your profiles active with as much information that you have about the adoption! It was the non identifying info shared that stuck in the mind of the person that came across the both of us and led to our reunification. I never, ever thought this would happen....and it was WELL worth it.

Found my birth mother! I had been looking for information about my birth mother on and off for years, after finding Adopted.com I joined and posted up a profile, I found a match the following week, after all these years, thank you Adopted.com

Amazing tool! I definitely give Adopted .com five stars for being such a great tool for adoptees and birth parents to be able to easily use and search for their loved ones. Just put it in the information on your profile that you know, however limited it may be, and the site matches you to others that have uploaded profiles with matching or similar content! I did not know about this site when I was searching, but I now would recommend it to anyone who still is. I have successfully used it to help a friend find her child who was adopted. Once you send message, they have an advanced system that continues to let the connection know via email and other contact info you provided at sign up. It truly is very easy and invaluable in my opinion!
