  • Oh so he knows they’re not a match? So, he knows. I don’t think she needs to add that she knows about her mom’s affair because even then that’s speculation on who it is and they’re already divorced. It would be different if they were still married. He’s probably in denial and afraid his daughter won’t want to be his daughter anymore even though that’s silly.

    Best thing she can do is say, “welp, even if we’re not a match, you’re still my dad and I love you. I’m not going anywhere.”

    Personal experience: my grandpa knows we took the test years ago and he hasn’t taken it. Turns out our mom is a completely different ethnic background from him (she’s half Italian instead of half Russian/Ashkenazi). He asks if we matched with our cousins and we change the subject. My definitely-not-Italian grandpa has a rose colored version of his dead wife in his head and we kids aren’t going to take that away from him in his old age even though I’m sure he knows.
