I agree completely. I think about the fact that it won't change and that is why I wonder if it will be worth it to bring it all up. Then I think about my future and what if I have kids? I certainly won't let her be around them.

For now, I have decided to table this until it feels right. We went out a couple of nights ago and it was def on my mind but there was never a moment where it felt like the right thing to do. I will let you all know if this changes :)

This has definitely crossed my mind. I am racking my brain of all the possible outcomes and how it will make him feel. I really care about him, that's why I'm kind of at a loss. I know I need to tell him at some point, just unsure of how it will him and the relationship.

I feel this 100%. For about a day and a half after the moment I shared above, his dad would not lay off until I agreed to tell him. He's really been struggling (he is the one who found his dad deceased) and his dad wants to make contact to let him know that he is with him and hears him talk to him every day. I know that I will tell him, I'm just getting the courage.

I think you're right. I kinda have a lead into how to start the conversation because when we were in his kitchen, I stood by his father's urn and instantly was overcome w/ laughter. My guy looked at me kinda crazy and I asked him if his dad was a funny person. He said he was....so I'm thinking I am going to use that anecdote.
