Yes I see no reason why your father should give that money away, i.e. he should keep it.

If he doesn't think he should take all of it he can give some to you. After all, David did tear up your own family and then broke up with your dad leaving him in a mess and your dad was financially hurt by all of that.

I was thinking he should take it and keep quiet. Because if he does contact Ron, Ron will turn the whole thing into a huge drama and want all of it - and the two of them will end up making the lawyers rich in court.

It is just how the cookies crumbled.

And boy could you use some of that for your house and your kid - in my mind you should come before Ron.

City - For your father's peace-of-mind - What about posting this dilemma on a gay message board here at ivillage.....perhaps getting a perspective from a gay partner point-of-view....

I haven't read the other responses.


David left the money to your Dad.

ITA with Soonee and Mark... your Dad should keep the money. All of it.
