Today, my husband cried more at the funeral of his tattoo artist than he did at his grandmother's funeral. Seriously, at the artist's funeral, he was crying; at his grandmother's, he kept checking the time on his phone and yawning. What man did I marry? FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I realized that I may have made a mistake in getting married, because he kept telling people to "Stop fucking crying, it's not a funeral." FML
Today, I found out the tattoo symbolising my marriage turned out to be more permanent than the marriage itself. FML
Today on my birthday, my wife thought it would be a good idea to get matching tattoos. Our tattoo artist happened to be her ex-boyfriend. I sat and listened to them talk about their relationship and how they should stay in touch. FML
Today, I called my boyfriend to have a shoulder to cry on because my grandpa died. As soon as I told him, he started crying and telling me how much he missed his grandmother, who died six years ago. I spent the majority of the phone call listening to him wail. FML
Today, I found out that my wife is leaving me for a tattoo artist. I was in rehab and she met him getting a tattoo as a surprise for me. FML
Today, my boyfriend proposed to me during a funeral. FML
Today, I went all out for my husband on our anniversary. I planned meals, took him to a stage show, and got him a bottle of cologne he loves. He was moody, distant, and at one point crying. Why? He found out his ex-wife is getting married today and he couldn’t stop thinking about her. FML
Today, I realized my husband and I have been fighting a lot lately, so to show him how much I care, I got a tattoo with his name on it. He hates it. FML
Today, I attended my mother's funeral. My husband came too, and during the service, I kept hearing him giggling. I wrote it off as the usual awkward nerves, until he started snorting too, and I caught sight of the iPhone under his jacket. He was reading this very site. FML
Today, a relative showed me a picture of her phone. I also saw a picture of her husband, a friend, sleeping. He looked like he was dead to the world. I asked, jokingly, "Why is there a picture of a dead guy on your phone?" Turns out it was her father, who is in the hospital, and dying any day now. FML

I guess it just depends what kind of relationship he had with either of them

Maybe he just wasn’t as close with his grandmother and didn’t share as many happy memories as he did with his tattoo artist?

Maybe he wasn’t as close with his grandmother as he was with his tattoo artist since they may have shared more happy memories together?

The answer is simple: Granny probably gave shitty tattoos. Wouldn't be surprised if she tatted him with NO REGERTS or CHI-TONW.

My guess - the kind of man who was having an affair (emotionally, even if not physically) with his tattoo artist...

It's so telling of you as a person that you would jump here immediately rather than the more likely option; he was close friends with his tattoo artist. Losing close friends hurts.

So? Some people mentally prepare for an imminent loss and make peace with it before hand.

I hope you're able to move past this.
