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

Today, my 11-year-old son and I were going through some old photos. He saw one of me when I was 22 on a beach, wearing a bikini. He said "Wow! Who's that?" Quite proudly I said it was me. He looked at me and said "What happened?" FML

Well its kinda crazy that he didn't tell you sooner or you didn't find out, but how old are you guys? That's a really big factor!

Ya, he should have told you that he had a mini me a long time ago... Honestly if he didn't tell you that he had a son, what else is he not telling you. Red flag.

Best of luck to you and your boyfriend! :) I'm sure he wanted to tell you just how you would react probally scared him enough to postpone telling you untill he felt comforable in telling you and knowing you would take it in a good way, which to me seems like you took it well other then posting it on FML :p but seriously, good luck with him i hope you both stay happy together! :)

Wow if he can keep a secret about his son , I wonder what else is he hiding! I would seriously think about dating him if I was you. That's huge! he can never be trusted. What about being honest from the beginning! Or is that how you want this relationship, with no honesty.

7 months? Oh my! Imagine the other things he's been hiding from you! Run away!

Yeah but did he say was or is?

Even if he didn't have custody, seven months is enough time for him to at least mention his child to OP.

The next question I would ask is "why didn't you tell me?" If he doesn't want to be in his son's life... you should rethink your relationship. If he's not allowed... you should help him rethink his strategy.

Just saw your comment OP. He doesn't happen to be a citizen does he? If he is so is his son.

And in seven months you never knew? YDI for not doing your homework/getting closer/meeting his family/meeting the kid's mom/ etc. how does that go un-noticed for seven months???
