If this girl showed up on his doorstep, with proof of being his daughter, that would shake up this guys life pretty good. Chances are good his wife wouldn't know about the whole sperm bank thing either. I'm pretty sure if I met a girl in my mid-late 20's, I wouldn't bring up the fact that I donated my boys to a sperm bank nearly a decade prior.
I agree with you. The guy's whole life could be turned upside down by this woman, and you can bet if he's got a wife and kids the wife is going to want to figure out how many "half siblings" her kids have due to his deposits. It's sad, but as I said, it's part of her that was never really meant to be known.
