Today, it's the five year anniversary of my father's death. I was cuddling with my boyfriend and crying about how much I missed him. He replied with, "Sometimes, I think you just like to hear yourself talk." FML

Dump him. Seriously, no one deserves that from the person they're supposed to be close to. I like the idea of refusing to tell him when something's wrong, to be honest. Very fitting. But keep in mind, if he's enough of an asshole to say something like that while you were grieving, he may not hate it. Because he's a ****. And you should dump him.

Wow 187 and 144 are ******* dicks. It is the anniversary of her dad's death. Her boyfriend deserves to be marked forever for saying something like that.

my mom passed in the evening of July 4th, so every time i see fireworks i think of her. it used to choke me up but i choose now to think of the positive things we shared, and not wallow in self-misery. your boyfriend should have chosen his words and timing more carefully, but i get the feeling he's not off base. get yourself together - what would your dad think of your sitting around, wailing and sniffling five years after his passing, using his death as an excuse for attention?

ok now, i'm not gonna say that you need to "get over it" or it's not a big deal or anything like that...i can only imagine what that must be like. you have my sympathy. that being said, i dated a guy for quite awhile (we'd even discussed getting married) whose mom had died a couple years prior, and every time we'd get in a fight and he'd be completely shitty to me, he'd pull out that card "i just miss my mom so much", get me to pity him and I'D wind up apologizing even though he was being an asshole. i'm not necessarily saying you're doing that, but people do, and it's horrible. i hope for your sake you aren't, because people will eventually stop feeling bad and begin resenting you.
