How would you feel about this?
I’m 15 weeks pregnant by my s/o of 4 years. We’ve always had a wonderful relationship. But one thing that bothers me is that it takes him a while to tell me personal things about his life to me. Less than a year ago he told me about his cancer diagnosis that he had 8 years prior (when we were on the way to the hospital for chest pains) we’ve had many doctor appointments since I’m considered “high risk” from a previous loss and they always ask about our children. I have an 8 year old daughter and he has a 13 year old daughter from a previous relationship. I’ve never met his daughter. Well today we met with my ob and she asked about our children and their ages so I told her. We went out for lunch after our appt and he FINALLY told me his daughter isn’t his biological daughter. He was with her mom since his daughter was 1 years old and she sees him as a father figure. And I’m like dude wtf!!! Why do you gotta tell me AFTER our doctor appt, no wonder he looked so damn hesitant when I mentioned his daughter. I just don’t know how to feel. I’m at a loss for words... He told me he was going to tell me the story about his daughter “later” I’ve bugged him so many times about it and he just never felt like talking about it. I had a feeling tho, he told me he missed the whole pregnancy and didn’t find out about her til after her first birthday...his daughter knows he’s not her biological father but he made a promise to her mom that he would step up and be the father that she needs in her life... but now I’m just confused, I don’t know how to feel about it. We’re having HIS first baby and I don’t want his daughter to feel neglected, what if she doesn’t like me? 😞
