FATHER HAD DOUBTS ABOUT HIS MIDDLE SON, AND TOOK A DNA TEST, AFTER THAT HIS WIFE WANTED TO DIVORCE

A father, on Reddit, had asked for a DNA test for his son, since he wasn’t looking like him. He had told his story on Reddit, and wanted some advice from others.

“I (37M) got a paternity test done and now my wife might divorce me over it, Help!” he stated on the headline of his post.

“My wife (35F) and I (37M) have been married for 12 years. We have three kids and I always had this nagging feeling that our middle child wasn’t mine. Our oldest and youngest look just like me, but my middle child doesn’t.” He started to tell his story.

Later on, he explained that the child doesn’t looking like any other of his family members too, as he stated, “My wife has shown me a picture of her grandfather and he does look a lot like him, but he just doesn’t have any of my family features, he looks so different than anyone else in the family. I decided I wanted a paternity test to put my mind at ease.”

Then he stated that after the test, it turned out that the child was from him. “My wife got pretty upset when I brought it up because cheating has always been a dealbreaker for her, but I just saw that as all the more reason to get one done. I told her that if she had nothing to hide she should have no problem with getting one done. I tested my son and it turns out he’s mine.” He said.

But his wife, was not happy with the situation, as he was relieved with the result. “I thought everything was fine, and I had my peace of mind. Except she told me she was going to take the kids and go to her parents for a while.” He continued.

“When I asked why she exploded and told me that she was seriously considering divorcing me over this stunt. That she was furious with me for doubting her loyalty to me knowing how she felt about cheating and that she would never forgive me for what I put our son through, making him question his place in the family.” he explained the afterwards of the situation.

“I tried to get her to see my side, that I just wanted to be sure, and that surely she could see why I’d question it when he looks nothing like me. She told me she would never forgive me for this, and that I hoped my foolish pride was worth the cost of my family.” he continued.

“She hasn’t spoken to me since. I need advice on how to get her to talk to me and get her to see my side of the story and that it wasn’t some attack on her character like she seems to think it was. I don’t want a divorce!” he asked for an advice, as he love her and doesn’t want a divorce.

Then a user had wrote a comment for him, which was the highest liked comment under the post.

It goes as, “Why cant you see her side though? She understands your side, that he looks nothing like you. Did you ever learn about genetics? Some babies just dont look like the parents, it happens all the time. I have a blonde cousin with blue eyes, who has a husband with blonde hair and brown eyes. The baby came out a redhead with green eyes. The baby looks nothing like them, and they still know that baby is theirs. Youre trying to justify what you did with a BS excuse and you need to accept you probably ruined your family forever.”
