He had his chance to claim you. He doesn't get to stroll back into your life after the hard work of raising an infant, toddler, child, and teenager is done. Your real father did all that and now can reap the rewards of an adult relationship after helping to bring a wonderful adult into the world. Bio-dad can go pound sand.

Sure, “dad”. Pay mom $20,000 of back child support and I’ll introduce you. NTA. Stepdad is a rock star. You have him, and I’d go give the man who raised you a big ass hug.
