(We’ve been together for 6 years) I’m Arab and my boyfriend is white. Our son is 3 years old and he looks more Arab than white. His skin is tan and he has dark curly hair (my boyfriends hair was like this as a kid) with light brown eyes.
My boyfriend and some of his family thinks this is suspicious. My boyfriend is convinced I cheated on him because our son doesn’t look like him. He explained that his son from another relationship (with a white woman) is his exact copy and he expected the same results.
I tried to explain to him that I have dark skinned people in my family (my moms entire side), but his response was “I thought he’d look a bit more white”. My son looks like me when I was around his age, but my boyfriend is adamant that I take the test. He even said “I don’t know if I want to get close to him because he might not be mine”.
We did it and he was the father. He apologized, but I’m still so bitter and I’m refusing to talk to any of his family who doubted us.
I feel like there was a racial element to their assumptions How can we move past this as a family?”
TLDR- bf expected our son to be more white and doubted him.
