Today, my husband showed up late to my mother's funeral. He swaggered in, happily finishing off a half-eaten taco. His excuse for why he was so cheerful: "She was an in-law, honey." Good to know I married a piece of shit in disguise. FML

It always makes me sad to see how little respect some people pay to their spouse and spouse's family.

There's nothing else to be said here than seriously reconsider you relationship with him, if not leae him altogether. Your mother, a huge part of your childhood and life, a true bond and a shoulder to hold yourself up on, passed away. His reaction was to non-chalantly turn up late, with a spring in his step, almost relishing her death as a side-dish for his taco and fully aware of the contrast between his cheerfulness and douchebaggery, and this day of mourning. I don't think he has a shred of humanity or decency, and probably not a lot of love for you or your family for him to be able to do that. Get rid of this asshole.

Oops, I accidentally tapped YDI instead of FML. This is totally FML not YDI. I'm really sorry OP, it doesn't matter how much he didn't like her, he needed to be there for you with a drastically different attitude.

FML's like this make me so sad. When a person gets married, it should be to someone who loves them, respects them, and helps them through the bad times as well as being there for the good times. I couldn't imagine my husband doing something like this FML because he knows that it would hurt me (and he's not a dick in general), and it makes me sad that there are women and men out there with horrible spouses like this who disrespect them in such major ways. Nobody deserves that. No matter how many selfish, mean or cruel people we come across in life, your own spouse shouldn't be one of them.

you cant change who your husband hates and he has the right to be happy about it.. but no matter how much you hate a person... either respect them at their funeral or don't go to it at all....and if you forced him to go dispite knowing his relationship with her... ydi

Expecting your husband to be respectful and supportive of you at your own parents funeral isn't an outlandish request, imo. Even if the husband didn't like the OP's mother, he should have been there for his wife. Not celebrating and acting like an insensitive ass in front of all the people who are mourning for the woman. It sounds like he's just a selfish asshole who doesn't respect his wife or her feelings.

If that was the case, he shouldn't have shown up to the funeral at all. It's disrespectful towards his wife AND the other people at the funeral to be celebrating the death of his wife's mother in front of them all. The OP mostly likely needed her husband to be there for her during her time of grief, and he was acting like an celebratory ass and eating a frickin' taco at the funeral. All it shows is how much he doesn't respect his wife.

Im not saying he should have done that but he doesn't have to be sad because they may have had a bad relationship…
