Today, I'm grieving over the death of my best friend of 9 years. My mom wasted no time arriving at the conclusion that I must be hormonal and pregnant with his child. Apparently it's not normal for a woman to cry so much over a man, unless they've been fucking. FML

Today, my mom asked me if I was crying because my boyfriend cheated on me with my best friend. That wasn't why I was crying. My mom knows things before I do. FML

Today, my mom walked in on me crying in my room and yelled at me for being a "weak little crybaby." I’d just found out my best friend died in a car accident. When I told my mom that, she said, "Does it look like I fucking care?" FML

Today, I am two months pregnant. Being super hormonal, I was crying about how much I was crying. My husband put his arms around me to comfort me, and I sobbed so hard that I threw up all over him. FML

Today, I found my mother in tears, so I asked her what was wrong. She told me, "It's your father, he wants a divorce..." I asked if he'd met another woman, and my mom replied "No, not a woman..." FML

Bad omen

Today, I woke up to my girlfriend sobbing so I went over to comfort her. She didn't want to talk about it, but was inconsolable. I called her best friend to help out, as maybe it's easier for her to talk to a woman instead. I found out from her friend that my partner's ex got his new girlfriend pregnant. That's why. FML

Today, I started crying at work for absolutely no reason. My pregnant coworker walked up to me and said, "Pregnancy hormones, huh?" I never even told her I was pregnant. FML

Today, my wife and I received confirmation that she has postpartum depression. When sharing this with the family, my mother exclaimed "I told you she was a psycho!" Now my wife is crying louder and more often than our newborn. Thanks, mom. FML

Maybe you should talk to your mom about appropriate behavior after the death of someone close...

I'm sorry for your loss op .... But can we talk about the fact that your mothers remark makes absolute no sense. If your friend has been dead for 9 years how could you possibly be pregnant with his child ?

I lost my best friend of ten years about eight years ago. She was my first friend at a new school, and she was supposed to be a bridesmaid in my wedding a few months later. It is incredibly hard to lose someone you're so close to. I don't know if it'll help at all, but know that it does get easier. You may never stop missing him, and the hole left vacant may never be filled, but you will be able to look back with fond memories and minimal tears. In the meantime, remember the happy times, surround yourself with helpful, understanding people, don't be afraid to grieve in your own way, and stay away from hurtful people like your mother. Find a counselor if you think it'll help. You will find a way to say goodbye and move on eventually. Don't rush it. I'm so sorry for what you're going through, but you will make it to the other side. Trust me.
