we are tracing family tree but didnt really touch on his dad as he left his mum when he was small, but his sister also doing family spoke to their dads sister who was giving her details from their side then all of a sudden a 'tree appeared in dads name no other info, just seemed like he was saying well here i am..........so..his sister emailed him earlier in week and he has resopnded, showing pics of him and his family, he seems very resepctable, nice man, nice family, well spoken(not at all the picture thier mother painted of him all those years ago, but hey people change)...so now..dp is turned upside down, his sister has done this out of selfish reason, she thought dp was going to contact him(he wasnt) and wanted to get in there first, but now although dp thinks he will meet him, he said she has opend a can of worms as everybodys life will chnage not just hers.
hes fine about his leaving i think but sister is bitter although pretending not to be so dont know how itll pan out....
but at moment i dont know what to do/say????????antone give me any words of advice please?

Plowder here, changed my name I like to ring the changes, LOL. (yeah thats me at the beginning too) Yeah your right too just chill for a couple of weeks and then get dp (if he wants too) to email fil, thing is there are many years to do this it doesn't all have to be now. I know its hard I would be desperate to contact him too, but he is not our dad is he!
