Being upset with family

During a really difficult time sucks.

B's uncle passed away on Thursday and there is/was a lot of drama and hurt feelings.

Everything was a HUGE secret and I have since learned that the neighbor (who happens to be my bff's dad) knew more than family.

We knew he was sick and I reached out to his daughter and she flippin deleted my email b/c she was sworn to keep the secret. Um, it isnt that big of a secret if I am emailing you asking about it and offering support/help.

But then I see on her FB page where she linked the obit and thanked all her friends and family for their support? UM HELLO, WTF

Then we read the obit and you would have sworn his was only child and the only family he had was his wife and 2 daughters. There were no funeral arragement b/c that is what B's uncle wanted but they wouldnt even allow us at the prayer sevice at the cemetary.

I have half the nevrve to email her one last time and send my condolences but to also let her know how hurt B and his dad are.

Sorry for the vent, I just needed to get that out there.

  • I was wondering what was up.  That does stink especially given the circumstances.

  • I'd def email with your condolences, but save the B &  family were hurt comment for some other time when her emotions aren't on such a roller coaster.  I understand that B's family is hurt - but given the circumstances, she most likely will get the wrong idea and miss your point completely.  It is possible that it may not have been her choice to keep the secret.  Maybe her dad threatened to cut her out of his life completely if she shared that information with anyone.  Sorry you have to deal with that though - that's a tough one.
  • How strange and frustrating! :(    I'm sorry :(
