Where to meet my birth mom for the First time?

I'm going to be meeting my birth mom for the first time really soon. Where should I meet her at? Where is a good place where we can talk and get to know each other. Please help!

Id say at a quiet restaurant. I feel this is a good place because if you guys meet at a house, it would be too quiet, so a small silence can turn extremely akward. If you were to meet at someplace louder, such as a beach or mall, it would be to loud and crazy, that youd loose focus in the conversation. If you go to a quiet restaurant, it would be quiet enough so that you guys wont loose focus, and yet it would be loud enough to to not have any akward silences. When i say quiet restaurrant, i dont mean a romantic, expensive place. Im talking about a nice sit down restaurant thats never completely full, but never completely empty. The great thing about a restaurant is that when eating, the only other thing you can do is talk to your guest. Theres nothing huge to distract you from the conversation you would have with your mom. Id say a place like olive garden is good. Good luck on meeting your birth mom. I hope shes friendly.

You know things like this make me believe anything can happen. I know what you should do. You should plan a whole day or week with your mom. When you first meet her, go out to eat, then get a hotel or go to her house. You then can order some fast food and get to know each others favorite foods. You can then stay the night at the hotel or house and talk a bit then stay the night. The next day you could do other activities with her. That could be a good plan. But to answer your question directly, you should go to a nice, lovely, fancy resturant.
Hope this helped and good luck meeting your birth mom!

Have you ever spoken to her before? Do you know of any interests that you share? I heard of one girl who met her birth mom at a horseback riding place because they both loved horses. They went on the trail ride and were able to get to know each other while doing something they both loved and they really felt a connection. A restaurant is nice, but it can be a little awkward because of those silences...you know the ones I mean haha. Do you like to shop? Maybe a mall would be fun...or would that be too many disctractions? Do you like animals? If you live near a zoo, you could meet there, maybe at the zoo cafe or restaurant, then you could either decide to grab a bite or walk around. Good luck! Would you mind letting us know where you decide to go? I'm a little curious myself = )

Do you have a dog? Has Spring sprung where you live? Meet at a public park. It will be quiet and peaceful - you can talk, but there will be enough distraction to fill any quiet moments. And if the trees and flowers are in full bloom, it will be a beautiful, inspiring setting that will not only calm you both, but create a lovely memory.
Best of luck to you :)
