Family extension

By now what - 26/07/2020 05:01

Today, I ran into a friend that I hadn't seen in about 5 years. She had her 4-year-old son with her. I couldn’t help but notice her son looked almost identical to mine. He even had a very distinct facial feature that my husband has as well. What are the odds all three of them have the same defect? FML

Today, I noticed my nephew has blue eyes, freckles and dimples which don't run in my family or my sister's husband's family, but they do run in my husband's family. FML

Today, my 11 month-old son stopped saying mom and started saying dad. He already looks exactly like him. I can't help but feel jealous. FML

Today, as I was perusing old photos with my mother, I found one of her with a "childhood friend" at her wedding to my dad. Now I know where my green eyes and blotchy neck birthmark came from, and it's not from the man I’ve been calling "dad" for 40 years. FML

Today, after my 5-year-old finally got over his grandmother's death, we went to a store and saw a lady that looked exactly like her. She came up to us asking if we saw her grandson; I can't get my son to stop freaking out. FML

Today, while doing the grocery shopping with my boyfriend we came across another woman also out shopping, who looked shockingly like me despite her being another race, hair color and the like. The second he saw her, he blurted out, ''Oh, it's a pretty version of you!'' FML

Today, my boyfriend of seven months and I were looking at some pictures on his iPad. I saw a picture of a kid of about two years old that looked a little like him. I jokingly said, "What, is that your son?" Imagine my surprise when he said that it was. FML

You're father-in-law must be a DILF even with his facial deformity.

honestly? the odds are pretty high. please remmber that the kids looking alike is pretty unlikely in general even if he WAS the father to both, so basically your question is :" what are the odds some kid would have the same facial deformity as my husband "(since your kid has it due to your hubby, so they aren't uncorrelated events). Hardly evidence of infidelity if you ask me.

Tf do you mean siblings don’t look alike? There’s a thing called dominant genetics, if his traits happen to be dominant they’re very likely to look similar. Also, genetic defects can be rather unique.

Back in the day? Bruh the child’s four and this wouldn’t be a question if she wasn’t with her husband 5 years ago.

We need more info for this to be a FML. A big question is: how long have you been married? The chance he has another child is one thing, him having another child because he cheated on you is world's different.
