Hello everyone,<P>I haven't posted in awhile but have been reading. <P>Background info: One night stand from 9 years ago sued H for child support for 8 year old child that he never knew existed.<P>Update: We had requested DNA testing and were waiting on date to be tested. Months went by and we never heard anything. So I called OW and asked her what the hold up was. She says she's thought about it and has changed her mind and wants nothing from us anymore. She sent letter to the state claiming she doesn't want to pursue action.<P>I'm assuming she got scared that she might have to share child with us if she was to get child support. But she had 9 years to think about that and knew that was a possibility when she brought this up. I think she has a lot of nerve and only did this to hurt us. <P>So at this point, without testing we are assuming the C is not H. If the child comes to us later in life. We will explain situation and will still have to do DNA. Her mother will have to deal with what she has done.<P>Thank you all for being here for me when I was freaking out about this. I guess you could say mine is a "success story". But I really don't think anyone is "winning". But I know it will make it a lot easier to salvage marriage without OC in our life.<P>I pray for everyone on the board that everything works out for them. I never would have thought that this would have played out the way it did. So have faith!!!<P>Eraser

Eraser:<P>You're so lucky and I am so jealous. It's strange how I can be so happy for you and yet wish with all my heart this would have been my story. And the story of everyone else here, because then it would have been "End of Story".<P>I am so happy for you, Eraser, truly.<P>God bless you both. Begin your new clean slate in thanksgiving for the incredible gift you have just received. You have just been spared a lifetime of agony.<P>Love<P>Catnip =^^=

Eraser,<P>Congratulations on your wonderful news! I hope that you and your H can put this whole thing behind you and start your lives all over again -- new and improved!<P>I agree wholeheartedly with Gemini, the OW is probably not sure who the father is...<P>Enjoy your new-found freedom!<P>- Heavenly
