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

He seems extremely inconsiderate. Also, I don't know if it's just me, but having a spouse die, then finding another person, dating them, and getting engaged to them in just one year seems REALLY quick. Just a personal opinion. Anyway, I'm so sorry OP, bless your mother.

That is so ****** up on so many levels... Sorry OP

While I understand he should move on with his life and that's fine but announcing it on the one year after is so inconsiderate. Fyl for sure

I think its fine that he chose this day.... You guys are so inconsiderate

Your father moved on pretty quick. And why on your mothers one year death anniversary. Just inconsiderate.

After a year, the laundry has to be really piling up :).

Maybe It's his way of coping with grief and he was lonely. He wanted to make the day a happy day. He wasn't thinking of others so he didn't realize he was being inconsiderate. Everyone grieves differently. When my father in law lost his wife 5 years ago, he was telling me how lonely he was and he misses his her everyday until he met someone new and got married in a year and half. He's happy now. Just talk to your father about how you feel so that he's aware of your feelings.
