How do I tell him what I found out?

Like it says, I've been with my boyfriend for a year and 7 months (come tomorrow) and I'm 6 months pregnant with his kid (an accident - I never wanted kids and we don't have the necessary bits to raise her so she's going for adoption) and I just found something out today.

He has a kid.

Let me explain... This morning I was in the living room and I saw his reflection through the oven, he was putting a piece of paper into his dresser drawer...and then he closed it very slowly so that it didn't make any noise. That perked my curiosity so when I got back home from taking him to work, I looked at the paper.

It was from the courts saying about him giving child support so some lady for a kid born in 2005.

This wouldn't be a big deal, except:

1) He told me he was going to courts for a drug possession charge from 3 years ago, and a traffic ticket he got with me

2) He told me he had court fines coming from his paycheck...but he didn't tell me it was f***ing child support.

3) He told me he was a virgin.

What do I do?

Obviously I have to let him know I know and give him a chance to explain -- is he just using me and faking it all, or did he just make mistakes a few years ago and lied out of fear? -- but how can I say "I snooped through your drawer and found this, will you explain?"?!

PLEASE how do I talk to him about this?

    Well it sounds like there are some trust issues here!

    Do you want to be with a guy who lied to you for this long about something so monumental!?! I sure as hell would reconsider my relationship in that situation.

    So he broke your trust in lying to you for 7 months, and you broke his trust in snooping through the drawer. What I would do is just bring it up, like "So, what's your kid's name" and then he doesn't have time to deny or explain. Just let him know that you know. If he asks, tell him about how you found out. What really matters here though is that he's been lying to you about everything (being a virgin!??) for the last 7 months, leading you to believe he was someone he isn't.

    He was likely scared to tell you. Just let him know you support him, but since you are pregnant by him, this is now an issue that should also concern you as it could affect his financial position, as well as you child has a sibling. He might also be getting denied access to the child and does not know what to do about it. Give him these links to help address all these issues.

    I think he was scared to tell you because he thought you might leave him. I would sit him down when he gets home one day and make sure he is in a good mood! I would say "(name), I saw the piece of paper when I was putting your laundry away. How come you lied to me? I thought you trusted me!" and see what he says. Good luck!

    Offal - I are not able to devour any of it. But I discover olive oil yummy simply with a little bit salt further, and I realize others discover it yucky. I additionally love black pudding, made ideally from pigs' blood, and others discover that yucky. And the First Mate loves garlic, which repels me at one hundred yards (or metres, or meters, as you pick).

    Talk to him.

    Say, 'i saw the papers' and ask him to explain.

    if he asked why you went through his drawers say something like

    'im sorry, i saw you put it in the drawer, and i looked at it. but we

    shouldn't have secrets should we?, so i thought it wouldn't matter if i saw it, !'

    Good Luck :) :)
