BM's grandmother died

Harleygurl's picture

BM's grandmother died. I sent her a text telling her I'm sorry for her loss. That's it. One sentence. Because I am. I feel bad for SS8. It's his great-grandmother. The funeral is today and he's going although DH doesn't want him to. I told him that even though that's his opinion there really isn't anything he can do about it but voice his opinion.

Her response, of course, was snarky in return. Will some people never grow up??

No, some people will never grow up and you shouldn't have sent your condolences. BM's entire world could collapse around her and I would never text her to offer sympathy.

I think it's fine you sent your condolences. Good karma never hurts the universe even if it's wasted on a POS BM that will never grow up.

I believe in good karma/bad karma. BM will get hers someday. I know not to ever expect the same consideration if one of my family members passes away. My personal philosophy is that I, as a person and being true to myself, must try to put more good in the world than bad. I don't get it perfect by any means but I try.

BM's grandfather died, I didn't say shit, we don't talk but FDH sent $150 bouquet of flowers to the funeral home. Both of my grandfathers passed away one last month and the other 2 summers ago. Do you think FDH bought flowers????? Nope :jawdrop:

Apparently they used to be close but hadn't seen each other since the divorce, once again the guilt got the best of him. I was irate. The flowers didn't get acknowledged at all from anyone, no thank you, no thank you note, no nothing.

I can't stand those people. I don't even tell SD's I'm sorry for their loss, they give a rats ass about mine so I just don't even bother, if I saw them at that time I probley would but i don't go out of my way. Daddy does enough for the both of us :sick:

I would be livid at FDH! Not at the flower's for BM's grandfather but the lack of respect to you during your times of loss. Wow! I'm so sorry!
