I regret nothing
Some people identify only as their trauma and disability. This woman I know uses that to manipulate people so she gets what she wants. I don't play games. I don't give a fuck what your mental issues are, you don't get to emotionally manipulate me without consequesnces. Sadly, my dying friend fell for it. Which pisses me off to no end. How dare you manipulate a dying person and call it love. And how dare you use my kindness against me so you can wallow in greif and use your ex lovers death as a platform for attention.
She hadn’t spoken to him in 20 years. Twenty fucking years! 2 months before his death she waltzes back into his life and came up with this fantasy that she was going to marry him and they would live happily every after. Except she is already married and everything my friend told me about her was a red flag warning. It made no sense. Their stories don't match. And now with my friend dead, I can't ask him why he was keeping her a secret from me.....from everyone. She is begging for access to all of his belongings. She wants his family's contact info. No honey, if you don't have that information already, you are not getting it from me. I am now a bitch. Yep. I am okay with that. And I may have hid the funeral details until the last minute. I did eventually give them to her. But my gut told me she would do something stupid. I am not sure how she made his death all about her when she didn't bother to talk to him for 20 years. I know she regrets waiting so long to reach out, but that's not my problem.
And don't thank me for being a good friend to your ex. I don't care how you feel about me. Just let him rest in peace.
End rant.
