I just found out I am a father... (read comment)

I am not one to air my "dirty laundry" in public, but, as I have a few friends on here and though I would share with you guys and gals something major in my life.

Anyway, I got the letter back today from the DNA testing centre telling me there is a 99.999% chance I am the father of a child I have never seen or seen the mother since before the child was born.

I last saw my daughter’s mother back in August 2005. I was in a relationship with her for only 3 months from February to May 2005, during which time I knew she was pregnant, but, she never said it was mine with much conviction. We broke up after her father died of cancer and she blamed me for being insensitive and disrespectful of her father, even though I did think, and still do think, he was an amazing man. He is an ex-RAF pilot and flew Tornadoes in the first “Gulf War”.

Anyway, we met again in August 2005, as I went to University of Plymouth, as did my daughters mother, and still had friends down there who's birthday is was. I tried to get back on terms with the mother and thought we should make another go of it for the sake of our daughter.

After this meeting we didn't speak for another 6 months, not through lack of trying on my part... But, because of how I was treated and of being unsure of the paternity of my daughter at the time I "washed my hands" of it all and just let it lay.

About two and half months ago I received and abusive message through Facebook saying I should get more involved with my daughter, I put it down to crossed lines and let that go, but, I then got a message from the mother of my daughter saying she was asking about me, but, because of still not being 100% I ignored that too...

So, two months ago I received a letter from the CSA asking for money for my daughter, I said I don't think I was the father. I was directed to get a paternal DNA test done, which I did and the results came back today, hence all this waffle.
Anyway, feel free to abuse, comment, ridicule, help and/or think less of as you see fit...

Cheers
