I Knew Before He Did
I knew that my father wasn’t actually my biological father before he did. My mom thought I should know first, and she had planned to tell him shortly after me. But, due to a work trip that he went on, I knew for about a week before he did. My mom told me the upsetting truth— she had a one-night stand with a dude while she was dating my dad.
He thought the baby was his, so she went with it. The problem was that she didn’t tell me he didn’t know, so I asked him how he was holding up while we were on a phone call. It was pretty hard to explain it to him myself…I mean, I couldn’t just give him a cliffhanger like that for such a huge announcement.
My mom and dad mutually decided to divorce since she basically cheated on him. It’s not really different between him and me. I still love him like my real dad. Story credit: Reddit / Mrwillykb
