I've have been with my fiancé for some time now and during this time he's talked about his father so much. It kills me seeing my fiancé like that he might not show it but I see right through him. It's been years since he's seen his father. I believe since high school and now he's a grown man at age 24. I've talked to his mom about it and she agrees it kills her too but most of all it kills her how his father didn't have the guts to look for his son all these years. I know it sounds really messed up and it is I still can't believe a father or even a mother wouldnt try to contact their child for such a long time. The man is married and has 3 kids with her. I'm really afraid that they don't know anything about my fiancé and not knowing that's he's their older brother. From what I've talked to my mother in law she thinks it could be his wife holding him back from getting back to his son. If it was that problem its just so sad. I have no words for that. She suggested maybe writing a letter to his wife through Facebook to see what she responds back or if she even responds back. But after talking more she just said to wait it out to see if his dad will ever show up. I honestly can't don't know if I could wait I'm suffering knowing my fiance always wanting the father & son bonding. And I know it won't be to that point because we all have our own separate lives now. But I just want to see him happy that he at least saw and talked to his father. I need to do this for him because I what if his father doesn't want to contact him and I just dont want my fiancé getting hurt if we did this together. I found out where his father works and im just debating who to write a letter to. His wife or my fiancé's father. And ontop of it all I'm pregnant he will be a first time grandfather. And my fiancé is considering of changing his last name before we get married. And I know for a fact he wants to see or know about his father before his decision. Please help me on what to do. And what should I say?

I think you should make sure that his father does want to do this first like you were saying. Then from that point on I would fully include your fiancé in it. The whole thing will go a lot smoother if your fiancé actually wanted to meet him. I can see some types of people getting upset if they found out you did this whole mission behind their back.
So I would try to have as minimal communication directly with his Father and yourself.
If you first tell your fiancé saying that you were just wondering how you could contact his father, so you were just looking online or whatever method you did use to find his number and give it to your fiancé to make him feel like he's making first contact.
I have gotten to know a few guys who were pretty much in the same situation with theirfather's. The main attitude I observered was, 'He hasn't tried to reach me in x # of years, so why would I want to reach him.'
After probably 6+ years of knowing your father is somewhere out there but hasn't came back yet, I know I would figure a way to pretty much deal with it. I wish you lots of luck, just be careful, these daddy issues can stir up strong feelings in men and it will usually be something you didn't even think twice of.
Only contact the father,he either replies or he doesn't.Otherwise you could pay him a personal visit.If he doesnt want anything to do with his son then leave it at that.
