When women are dating a new guy, it's safe to assume that they had a life before you. Everyone's dating history is usually an enigma at first, as you don't want to immediately poison the well with toxicity from a past life when you're ready to move forward, but after a certain amount of time, a long term boyfriend usually stops being a mystery and starts becoming a genuine companion. At the 4 year mark, most women can expect to know quite a bit about their man (sometimes too much)– Not in this case.
OP, a woman in her early 20's, is dating a man who's closer to 30 and has a young daughter. Obviously, OP knew the daughter was from another relationship, but apart from that, she simply had no clue what her boyfriend's relationship was like with his baby or his baby mama. She had never met the daughter nor did her boyfriend of 4 years express any interest in sharing even a morsel of the truth from his past life. Recently, this delicate balance got really dicey when OP asked her shady BF if he was going to be hanging out with his daughter at her birthday party; that's when the boyfriend lost it.
Defensively, he dismissed her questions and went off in a huff. After sharing her story on Reddit, commenters have a wildly plausible take on what's really going on here. Scroll for the full story of how this girlfriend found out that she might actually be the 'other woman'.
