I have been where you are in a way. There was a uncle that every one thought was my father no matter were we were people would say to me your dad this your dad that. I was told how we looked so much alike and how we even had the same smile and did everything alike.

This man was married to my amom's sister! They had no children and I grew up very close to them. My aunt I always thought was the person that loved me and kept me close to them BUT when she died he stayed close to me. At one point he had me sit down and said to me "This I bought for your aunt many years ago with love and I want you to have it!" This was her engagement ring and he said I want it kept in the FAMILY. My amom was still living so why did he give it to me? No, I could never ask him if he was my dad. I now think I could of asked it in this way " Do you know who my birth father is or was"?

I am fine with it now for he passed away a few years ago and if I was to do it I would of found the words back then.

Maybe you could just tell him the truth that you and your son think that they look so much like each other and send him a picture of your son. Ask him for his thoughts on this. The truth is always best.
