DEAR DEIDRE: I WAS gutted to find out that the son I’ve been raising for six years is not mine after my ex had sex on a hen weekend.

Now my ex has introduced the boy to his biological father and stopped me from seeing him. I’m devastated –  I don’t care if he isn’t mine, I have a strong bond with him and love him.

I’m 40 and my ex is 35. We weren’t ever married, and split up just over a year ago.

It was a nasty breakup and shortly after, she told me the child I’d loved since he was born wasn’t my son after all. 

I thought she was lying to hurt me, so I got a DNA test done.

My ex got pregnant soon after we met and I never doubted he was my boy. He even looks like me.

But the test proved that I couldn’t be the father after all. I was so gutted, I fell apart for a while.

At first, my ex let me see him regularly, but then she said I had no right as he isn’t mine.

She stopped my mum and dad and sister seeing him too. They are all in bits.

His little cousin keeps asking why he isn’t around. 

I got a solicitor and have been fighting for access ever since.

I know he’s now met his biological dad but, from what I’ve heard, this guy wants nothing to do with him.

What keeps me awake at night is thinking he believes we’ve all abandoned him and that I don’t love him. 

I don’t know if he’s been told I’m not his real dad. What would that do to him? 

How can I learn to cope with this? And how can I build a relationship with my little boy, even if we don’t share DNA?

Deidre says:

What your ex has done is unimaginably cruel, both to you and to her child. 

It’s in his best interests to maintain a loving relationship with you, the man who he thinks of as a father, and with his grandparents and wider family.

Being a dad is, as you say, about far more than DNA. 

You say you’re fighting for access. If you need more advice and support, please contact Families need Fathers (fnf.org.uk, tel: 0300 0300 363).

DEAR DEIDRE: MY brother-in-law’s mental health problems are ruining my relationship.

The problem is, my boyfriend spends so much time caring for his brother that he doesn’t have any time for me – or us. I know it sounds selfish, but surely I’m entitled to a life too?

I’m 26 and my boyfriend of two years is 27. His brother is 30.

My boyfriend still lives at home with his brother and parents. They’re a very close family  – they even eat every meal together.

His brother has had severe mental health problems for years, and is in and out of hospital. 

He has anxiety attacks and also gets very low, sometimes even suicidal. There are times he can’t be left alone, so they take it in turns to be with him.

Even when his brother is in hospital, my boyfriend spends all his free time visiting, so I’m lucky if I get to see him for a few hours over the weekend.

He worries desperately about his brother, and I want to support him and be helpful, but I feel increasingly resentful. 

All I want is to be his main focus sometimes. But I feel like I come third to his job and his brother. 

I love him, and the fact he’s such a brilliant brother, so I don’t want to break up with him. I also don’t want him to think I’m uncaring.

What can I do?

Deidre says:

When one member of a family has a severe illness or condition, whether it’s physical or mental, it can take a huge toll on everyone else. 

Your brother clearly comes from a wonderfully-supportive family. 

But it’s completely understandable that you feel neglected and unhappy.

It’s time to talk to him and explain how you feel. He may well be feeling overburdened too – ask him to be honest. 

If you want a future with him, then things will have to change. Perhaps it’s time to discuss what this future will look like. 

Would he be able to spend one uninterrupted evening with you? What would an improvement look like for you both?

My support pack, Looking After Your Relationship, should be useful for you both to read.
