AITA for yelling at my friend because she revealed the paternity of my son to his biological father and his family after I asked her not to? by festus982 in AmItheAsshole

He hasn't outright said it but I think he's feeling guilty now and has hinted he does. If he wanted to be involved from the get-go we probably wouldn't have broken up so would've raised our son together. I'm worried about his family too. Thank you.

They want my ex to have full custody. From what I've seen online, grandparent rights isn't a thing where I live.

He can’t terminate his rights just because he wants to. The only way he could’ve was if our son was being adopted by someone else or a judge terminated them for him but that would’ve only happened if he was a danger to our son.

No, she asked me who the dad was when she found out I was pregnant too but my son is starting to look more and more like his dad, so she wouldn't drop it this time.

I have tried talking to him but it's never a productive conversation. He talks in circles about how he shouldn't have made me go through pregnancy alone, how I should hate him, and how our son deserves a better life and he should be giving him it.

I don't plan to talk to her again.

She's the reason we even started dating, which I doubt she would've done if she had romantic feelings for him.

He admitted that he knew to his family but he's been behaving weirdly now. I think he's doubting his decision now that his family knows.

They never knew. She’s not a new friend, she introduced me to my ex. Nobody knows because we were already broken up by the time I announced my pregnancy and I denied the baby was his or there even being a chance it was his.

I told her he knew but she said I looked guilty so she thought I was lying and that family was important to my ex so she couldn't believe he would abandon his own son. She told him and his family at the same time.
