Today, I Googled my father, who I haven't seen in 3 years. The first website link was his obituary. When I confronted my mom about it, she said, "Oh, didn't I tell you?" and walked off. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I went to visit my parents after 4 years of not seeing them. They'd moved without telling me. FML
Today, I found my dad on a dating website looking for younger girls. My mother and father are "happily" married, well according to her Facebook profile. FML
Today, my mom talked me into going to a funeral since my dad wouldn't go. It was for one of her classmates. When it was our time to view the casket, we paused in front of it for a second before my mom leans over to me and says, "What if I told you that was really your dad?" FML
Today, I looked at my father's Facebook for the first time in a month to see a status saying, "Making wedding plans!" Really? When was he planning on telling his own daughter? FML
Today, I went through my 15 year old daughter's internet history. On google she searched 'Excuses to get away from your dad' and 5 other variations of the same thing. We were supposed to be having a father daughter day tomorrow. FML
Today, I found an obituary clipping on my kitchen table. It was for my grandpa. No one told me he died. FML
Today, I found out my parents have a list of everything I have ever Googled. FML
Today, I Googled myself. I found my mugshot and a blog my mom had written about how much of a problem child I am. FML
Today, I found out that my mom and dad got a divorce. They didn't tell me, they just changed their relationship status on Facebook. FML
Today, I saw my dad for the first time in almost five years, at his funeral. FML

your mom is dumb as hell

Maybe your mum did just forget to tell you? Especially as you clearly had no contact with him for three years, and there might have been good reason for that. Or she did tell you and you weren't paying attention? Or you can believe your mum purposly didn't tell you because she's a bitch who didn't want you to know your father was dead just because she'd fallen out with him when you hadn't. Maybe ask her before you judge.

If the mom wasn't just a bitch, she wouldn't have just walked away after her comment. OP, your mom's a bitch, but I'm sure you knew that before this.

That is true. But maybe the mum has a good reason for hating the dad or not wanting to talk about him? My point was to not judge before you have all the facts.

I have to agree with Cinn. If teh mother walked away afterwards there's likely a reason she wants to avoid the subject. There isn't enough information to just assume she's evil. It's equally easy to accuse the OP of being a bitch for being oblivious to their father's death. Full facts are important.

My mother in law was married to a verbally and physically abusive asshole. He beat her, and one time dropped his newborn son cause he was trying to strangle his 9yr old step son. My mil dnever told the son the full extent of his father's abuse...so he thinks his dad is a good person. Maybe your mom was in the same boat. I mean there's a reason you haven't seen him in 3 yrs.
