Ten months after his wife died, a widower finally found the courage to read the last letter she had written for him. Her confession drove him to take a paternity test.
On November 29, 2021, he shared his grief on the “Off My Chest” subreddit, not seeking advice but finding support. He and his wife had enjoyed four years of happiness, especially after their son’s birth. But after her death, he focused on being a devoted father.
Despite his grief, he discovered the letter his wife left behind but waited ten months to read it. The letter revealed she had gotten drunk at her bachelorette party and had an affair, leaving her uncertain if their son was his.
Devastated by her confession, he took a paternity test, which confirmed his worst fears: the boy he raised was not his biological son. “Your feelings are valid,” Redditor femundsmarka wrote. OP thanked them, saying he needed a drive to clear his mind. “Driving is excellent therapy,” another user advised.
The father struggled with how to respond to his son. He knew he still loved him but feared how his feelings might change in light of his wife’s betrayal.
