Today, a DNA test proved that my 2-month-old daughter isn't mine. The real father is my girlfriend's husband, whom she married last year when she lied to me about going on a vacation. We've been together for three years and I never knew. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Same thing different taste
Mix up
Today, my husband presented me with a DNA test proving that our newborn daughter isn't his. Confused, I got her tested again. She's not a match to me either. FML
Today, my now ex-fiancée confessed that "our" child is most likely actually hers and my father's. FML
A sand castle
Today, I took a DNA test and it turns out that the person who I thought was my dad is not my actual dad and my real dad is his best friend. FML
Shambles
Today, I found out my husband isn’t the biological father of our daughter when we consulted about the bone marrow transplant formula she needs for her leukemia. I don’t know who the real father is because I had a drunken one-night stand at a friend’s birthday party. My marriage and daughter’s life is in shambles. FML
Family coincidence
Today with a DNA test, I found out that my husband is my half brother. 30 years ago his father made a donation to the sperm bank my mother used, and I’m the result. To make matters worse, I’m pregnant. FML
Very mean spirited
Today, my dad's will included a DNA test he did on me when I was 3, proving I’m not his son. I thought we had a great relationship, but apparently he secretly hated me all these years for mom cheating, and decided to embarrass me in front of our family, half of whom it turns out I’m not related to. FML
Better late than never
Today, the guy I had a two-week long fling with and got pregnant by (while on birth control I might add), and who disappeared more than a decade ago after I told him, showed up at my door, demanding shared custody of my daughter. While he is her biological parent, she’s never met him and was terrified. FML
Family ties
Today, during divorce proceedings, I decided to have my kids DNA tested. Neither of my kids are mine. My daughter's real father is unknown but my son's DNA identifies him as related to me, but not as my son, so he’s more likely my nephew, meaning his dad is one of my brothers. FML
Today, I found out that my long-distance boyfriend just got married because his "real" girlfriend is pregnant. FML
Today, thanks to my wife's confession, I found out that the 14 year old child I've raised since I was 16 isn't related to me at all. But at least this narrows the real father down to one of three other guys. FML

You and the husband need to bond over your joint sense of betrayal, ditch the cheater, and raise the kid together like in My Two Dads! Whaddya say, OP? How about it?!

I am sad to say, but unless your name is written on that birth certificate as the father (and even then) there's little to no chance you'll be allowed visitation or custody. I feel so sorry for you and your situation. Everything you've had for the past three years is literally gone, and that baby is too. Even if you didn't care, and wanted to stay as her side man (Or eventual husband if she divorces), If she for whatever reason leaves you, would would never have custody rights with that little girl. Find therapy as soon as possible, because it's going to hit you before you know it. This is a huge deal. Again, I'm sorry OP.

Well it was only two months, so hopefully he hasn't bonded with the baby too much. That's the only reason he would want visitation since she's a cheater and the baby isn't biologically his.

You'd be very surprised. He was waiting all 9 months for his 'daughter' to be born, and may have been extremely close to her. It's a lot to believe that you have a child and that is taken away. I couldn't even imagine!

How long had she been with him? How did you never suspect she was ******* around? Evidently, she held a swim meet in her ****** and his swimmers were better than yours!

oh how true. I wonder how she kept getting away to meet her husband/ and boyfriend. you can't take that many vacations. sucks for both of them. I laughed about the swim thing bc even when life sucks you have to laugh.

News Flash: you're the other woman.

Whoa. On the bright side, you probably won't have to pay child support when you leave her.

That's exactly what I was thinking. This shouldn't be an FML. This should be a happy dance.

This is why I have trust issues with the opposite sex. Hope everything turns out better for you.
Miss_Whipped 43
Trust issues go both ways, y'know. It's not always one sex or the other lol.

Yep, agree. Guys can be major dicks too.
