A female South Africa age 36-40, anonymous writes:

My husband had a one night stand way before i met him and she claimed she has his child. he told me about it and i insisted he go for a dna tests because i believe there is a chance its his child and he should take care of him. He is planning to go next week for the tests. the problem is if its his he said he will come stay with us and thats my problem i dont want that. I dont have a child of my own we are trying actually. I am not happy about taking care of the kid if he happens to be his. am i being selfish?

Hi

I understand your feelings however from the opposite angle my sister had a one n stand too , same situation as yours. Dna test he was the father but his new girlfreind wanted her own children and not this unexpected one. I won't waffle straight to the result.

My special neice prom night 16 years later,last week her father so proud, her mum, and her special second mum oh! also her two kid brothers who came along later. It can work out better than you imagine . understand that seperating your perfectly natural(response feelings) can be changed to love, if you see the child as innocent and of course you want your own. it's your choice

but i can tell you my neice completly loves ALL of her FAMILY and i respect the open heart of her step mom for giving more love when at first she felt like you must feel..but she chose love because she did not want to hurt her partner and an innocent child. the world can be a cold place full of bad feeling YOU like THEM can give love in place of resentment. I wish you luck you can only GAIN but your CHOICE. best of luck and i hope your hurt heals.
