I think i'm right to turn down helping his situation if its unhealthy for me?
I understand how you need to get rid of negative people in your life, as I do the same, unfortunately I feel that my BF welcomes that negativity back into our lives..i understand he needs to find out the truth if he does or doesn't have a daughter, but I can-not be a part of it

I don't think you are doing the wrong thing at all...
it's HIS responsibility to find an attorney and deal with the situation, not yours. I have a child from a previous relationship and I would never even think to ask my boyfriend to do something like that. IDK why he would even ask you...I personally think he needs to grow up and handle that on his own, you're not his mother!!!
