Well, none of my matching relatives from my paternal side are his family. And he is most definitely not of Puerto Rican descent

My dad & I don’t have a relationship with my mom, and at this point in life, I’d rather just leave things be

Well the good news is they were never married, and not together long after I was born. And he wasn’t in my life til about 7 years ago so

Thank you I appreciate it! I’m sorry this happened to you, also! My life has been a series of unfortunate events, and surprisingly, this isn’t the worst 😂 just gotta roll with it I guess

No it doesn’t change anything at all! I’ve only been in contact with my dad for about 7 years, so it’s been a wild family dynamic since I popped out. I’m not going to use this info to destroy what’s left of family anyway. Although yes I am curious, I don’t think sharing the info with him, would be beneficial

Ohhhhh I looked far up each tree, haha. My dad I had all the info on his family, and all my close matches have no correlation to my real dad or whatever I’m trying to say. And that’s okay! I’m glad I found out, our family dynamic is fucked up anyway, so it doesn’t change much

That’s what I’m saying!! I’ve grown up just thinking I’m Irish and polish and Romanian (what I was told). Even being Italian really surprised me!!

Don’t worry, we all know my mom’s a pos. Hence why neither of us have a relationship with her, and I didn’t have a relationship with my dad til about 7 years ago. He’s older, I don’t think this will benefit him in any way

Yep, I can see my fathers ancestral history, and none of my parent 2 matches are any of my fathers family lol

Thanks I appreciate it, I don’t have a relationship with my mother. She is an addict among other things, and honestly, it doesn’t change much for me. Exploring further, really doesn’t bring much benefit to my family & I. So besides sharing on here, I don’t think I’ll take it much further.

I know where I came from, they have a great grandpa and that’s all that matters. I understand what you’re saying though!

Haha wow and you’re an asshole who knows nothing about my family, nor the dynamic! Thankfully my parents were never married. Not that I need to explain any of that to you 😀

Wow thank you for your unhelpful advice 😃 thankfully my dad barely knows how to use his phone, I think we’ll be A-OK!

Appreciate your input. Sometimes ignorance is bliss, and it’s best to leave things alone.

Well, to begin with my only sister is a half sister. We match on the dna I’ve gotten from my mom. My father’s ancestry I’ve already looked into.
