Had a similar situation when I was 22 met my father for the first time I was propper bricking it before hand wondering what to say what was going to happen etc but wasnt too bad when it came down to it tbh the meeting went ok, take somebody with you for support I took a couple of mates with me who just sat in a different part of the pub, just remember whatever feelings you are having he will be feeling exactly the same bud

i also had a simmilar situation when i was around 19 & my half sister was 36, she spokeme & my brother like she knew us for years but my dad doesnt realy take them on as he's old skool but there alright tho, dont realy speek nowadays as she lives in hull & im in aberdeen
ive got a half brother and 2 half sisters, so far ive only met my half brother, hes 5 years younger than me, u already are off to a good start as ur are friends on facebook so u know what he likes/is in to
arrange to meet in a pub for a few drinks, it will be awkward at first but after a drink or 2 you will be chatting about ur interests and u can tell him things about your dad that he may have questions about
ive still got to trace 1 of my half sisters who is 1 year younger than me, unfortunatly her mums boyfriend after my dad adopted her so her name changed which is making it harder
my other half sister im in contact with on facebook she is 16 (im 33) and lives in america with her mum and my dad, we chat all the time and she will becoming over in 2 years time to meet all the family
your half brother is prob curious to know/meet the rest of his family esp if he is a only child like my sis who only found out after chatting to me that she is aunite at 16 years old to 8 neices and nephews who some of are older than her and she has a great neice and a great nephew
your half brother prob just wants to know his family roots and find out where hes from

You having nothing to lose by meeting up but alot to gain if you both get on. Like everyone else has said, chat about things you like to break the ice and then the more you get to know each other the more comfortable you will become to chat on more sensitive subjects.
Good luck eitherway

Nice one,
I met my old man for the first time in 20 odd years, I was crapping my self but when I walked in the door and saw how nervous he was aswell that all went away, so glad I did it now but wish I had done it much sooner,
Have now seen him 4/5 times and its like we have never lost contact, Got 2 more little brothers, my missus takes the piss with things like we were both sitting on sofa chatting and we were both sitting the same way holding drinks the same etc etc lol
good on ya matey
