A woman was left feeling incredibly hurt after her husband accused her of cheating – and demanded she get a paternity test done to prove he was the father of their child.
The couple had been together for four years – and when they recently had their first child, it was anything but bliss. Explaining the story on Reddit, the anonymous woman said her husband, 29, had been "cold and distant" after their son was born.
He refused to hold him and wouldn't show the wife, 25, any affection. And a few weeks ago she realised why he was acting so strangely – he had suspicions his son wasn't his biological child and wanted a paternity test. "I was upset but complied," she wrote on the forum website.
According to the anonymous forum user, her son is white, while she is "mixed race but very white passing". She was raised by her adoptive parents – with her biological mum being white, and biological father is Inuit, part of the indigenous people of northern Canada and parts of Greenland and Alaska. "We look very little alike, but we are getting closer emotionally," she added.
When her son was born, the mum "cried" because she realised her son looked "so much like my ataata," which means dad in Inuktitut. "He has darker skin than my husband and I but he has my husband's eyes and nose."
'I never share a bed with my husband - it keeps our sex life spicy'
She continued: "He is the father, as I knew he was. I told him that I was a prime example of not looking like my biological father and that I felt he was an idiot for suggesting I was cheating."
But the husband took it one step further – and started accusing her of something terrible. "He shot back with: 'Well how do I know the man you bring around is actually your dad and not your affair partner?' Yes, he insinuated I lied about my ataata being my dad and that I was sleeping with him."
Understandably, the woman clapped back, but now 'regrets' what she said. Despite promising to leave the subject behind, she had said: "Well then say hello to 'Sarah' for me" – the woman her husband had an affair with two years ago. "He broke it off and we reconciled but I feel like it was rich of him to accuse me of cheating when he was the one who cheated in the first place,"
The husband was upset and called her an "a**hole for bringing it up" – and now they're not speaking. She's considering divorce – but also left the argument realising her words were "hurtful and uncalled for".
Unsurprisingly, other forum users were outraged by the situation, with many calling her husband a "hypocrite". One person wrote: "How is you bringing up something that actually happened worse than him implying your father was your affair partner and possibly the father of his child? That's disgusting. I'm not sure I could come back from that."
While others suggested he could be acting that way to hide his own guilt. Another said: "Honestly it sounds like he may be cheating again considering the fact that he came up with such an unhinged idea of the wife cheating, he's totally projecting and I don’t think it’s him projecting his past infidelity but a current one, tbh!!"
