[quote=Anonymous]My DH has never met and knows nothing about his father, and his father doesn’t even know he exists. He’s the result of a one night stand with a stranger at a college seminar many states away.

My husband and his mother have been fighting, and as a sort of bait to reel him back in, my MIL suddenly produced a piece of paper from the seminar that lists, among other things, this man’s name and date of birth, and short biography. She “suddenly found it” hidden in a box, 40 years and 5 moves later. She has known she’s had it since she attended that seminar.

Now my husband is determined to find this man and contact him. I think it’s a horrible idea and can’t understand what he thinks he will gain by blindsiding a man who has no idea he exists, and telling him he has a 40yo son. He says he doesn’t care if he’s rejected. I say, then what’s the point? He says, it’s his right to at least hear his voice and speak with him. He’s very, very confused. I don’t know how to properly guide him, because I think he’s making a big mistake. Does anyone who’s been here before have any advice?[/quote]
