My uncle dated A LOT when he got divorced. Every single family event he had a new girlfriend with him. Some decades later, he got a random Facebook message from one of the ol' gals. Seems the reason she "moved away for a job" was really because she was knocked up and he was the father. The kid was now 25 years old and just wanted to know more about his family roots. Very common I know. My Uncle had grown kids of his own, a new wife, and had just retired. I think they met face to face a few times, once with a lawyer present, and then never spoke again. The lawyer was there to make sure no one was trying to claim past child support (they weren't). Our entire family was told to keep this on the down low especially around my Grandmother (Uncle's mother), the Matriarch of the family that everyone feared. I never even met this person, a blood cousin, because everyone just...stopped talking to her. Imagine being afraid of your own mother that much. I never even knew any of this went down until a year later. You could barely even talk about it in secret. Eventually the years went by, Gramma died and everyone just stopped talking or even acknowledging another relative. All because a guy was afraid to tell his mommy he knocked someone up and didn't know it. .....Oh, right. Um....a Big Beef and Cheddar with curly fries to go. Thank you

One of my uncles had a pimped out Econovan with floor to wall shag and a fridge and a couch that turned into a bed, with a little disco ball hanging near the bubble window. Captains chairs. No bitching mural outside though, just plain tan.

I took 2 of my nieces to get piercings their parents didn't approve of. I buy their art and flew across country to surprise one of them at her college graduation. I don't tell their parents when they drunk text me but I make sure they're with friends and drinking water and getting back home ok. I take their music recommendations and tell them how good their taste is even if I don't like it. I keep their secrets because my wife and I are the lone sane lefties in the family.
