Fast turnover

Today, it is the one-year anniversary of my mother's death. It's also the day my father chose to announce his engagement, to the whole family. FML

Go to his fiancé when he's not around, say "you know, it's the anniversary of my moms death today, and he doesn't seem to care... Try imagining how much he really cares for you. If you think that's a lot, just think, when you die, he'll care just as much." And walk away. Let that thought sink in :P

Wow, I'm so sorry that you we're put through this! I lost my mom almost 13 years ago, and I would flip out on my father now if he was to tell me he was engaged on the anniversary of my mother's death..... He hasn't remarried but at one point he was engaged and she wanted their wedding to be my on my mother's birthday, it's not the exact same situation but it's pretty close, and I know I was highly upset and extremely mad that my father was even considering it, to the point that I told him I wouldn't go... Once again I'm sorry you have to deal with this, and I'm extremely sorry for your loss.

I don't get why people say they deserved it, like how the **** could he have deserved it? It's their dad ******* up not them Anyhow that really sucks!

My mom died very young approximately 3 years ago. My dad started dating about a month after she died, and married (his second "girlfriend") within 1 1/2 years after her death. It's hard, but I've basically learned to let him live his own life and try not to judge how he deals with death. Though I did get mad enough to not talk to him for about 3 months, it's really not worth it. You only have one parent left and the relationship you have with them is really important.

Very inconsiderate. Were your parents married at the time of her death? I could see my dad doing something like this by accident, but my parents divorced long ago and my dad is awful with remembering dates.

I lost my twin last year in June. I'll never get over it and I can't see how people do after something so intense..

I understand that it was on your mothers passing anniversary but think.. Do your mother really want him to stay lonely and depressed forever. She would probably want him to move on eventually

What so he can't be happy? Why are people saying that he's an asshole

Was he with your mum until she died? I know it's a horrible day for you anyway. But if he had been separated from your mother for a long time it's more understandable. Either way he should have respected your mourning. I'm so sorry that you had to go through that. I can't imagine how much it must hurt.
