    Oh that’s the best part, he acts like he’s mentally fine when he wants to present himself that way. The man who raised me is also not my biological father. He told me he had to take the ancestry dna spit tube to another man before submitting dna. The profile is linked to his email address, though. He will openly say things in regards to acknowledging that he isn’t my biological dad, but will then deny it in public. I have been forced to call this person my dad for 35 years, even though he openly admits he has to relay communication to my biological dad. He won’t tell me who my biological dad is. I have had several friends and family members say it is another man in our community. I have met that man and he looks almost identical to me. The man that raised me looks nothing like me. I bet if I threaten to put him in a facility, he would demand another dna test and start to confess everything. I have no idea why I was raised to call this distant relative my dad. He looks absolutely nothing like me, either.

      That’s fucked up man. Did you try to confront the person that looks exactly like you or your mother?

        I actually worked for him, briefly. I never said anything more to him besides, “hey we kind of look alike. It was more in regard to having a shaved head, and looking almost exactly alike in our Covid masks. I don’t think he was amused by my remark. He actually asked me to change job positions after that.
