Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I texted my sister to ask her if she was OK after finding out that one of her oldest friends had died. She didn’t know. FML
Today, my sister announced her pregnancy at my husband's funeral. FML
Today, my boyfriend left me for his sister. No, not my sister. His sister. FML
Today, my sister told me our mother had died… via email. I didn't see it for nearly 12 hours. She has my phone number. FML
Today, my estranged, alcoholic father decided to tell me I have a sister. After 30 minutes of him describing how beautiful she is, how much we look alike, and how she has lived one town away from me her entire life, I was excited to the point of tears. Too bad she died a year ago. Thanks dad. FML
Today, I was speaking to an old friend and I asked her how her mother was. She replied, "She passed away, you came to her funeral last month." FML
Today, I ran into an old friend, and she asked me how I was doing. I replied, "Still alive!" like I always do. I forgot both of her parents recently passed away. FML
Today, I found out my sister has a new boyfriend. That would have been helpful to know three hours ago, before I told her boyfriend, who is also my best friend, that I loved him. His response? "HAHAHA! Good one! Oh Seriously? Shit." FML
Today, my boyfriend of 2 months got upset and frustrated with me because he had yet to meet my mom. I'd told him on our first date that she passed away 4 years ago. FML
Today, my sister called me and asked if my boyfriend of 3 years had proposed to me yet. And now the surprise is ruined. FML

Maybe she thought you had a new one?

Have you not had contact with her in the last two years?

Whether this is horrible or not has to do with how much you talk to your sister? If your sister and you talk all the time, she is callus or mean, and you have not dated in this time... then she is a jerk. If you rarely talk and she assumed after two years yu might have dated again... then it is likely a natural thing to say to someone.

I don't care what her excuse is. I'd slap a bitch.

Sheesh. It could just be an honest mistake, or like other people are saying, op and the sister didn't keep in touch.

Umm guys, "She was the first person I told" (most likely) tells us that the sister really didn't know. Her UN is lonesomegal as well so maybe she isn't all that talkative. Communication isn't a one-way thing; OP isn't a saint. You'd generally expect to be told if someone dies, not have to ask!

"She was the first person I told" sounds like she told her sister two years ago when it happened and then the sister forgot or something and asked how he was.

Was she possibly referring to a new love interest?

Maybe this was her way of broaching the topic that you should start dating again. My own sister tends to try for "subtle" approaches to sensitive topics that come across more like a brick to the face.
