Lack of parental support
Having a tough time with parental support. The day after my wife died, I visited my parents for dinner for the hopes that I would get some sort of support. For context, my wife and parents never had the best relationship but it’s not without reason. They tried to schedule our wedding rehearsal dinner at a Brazilian steakhouse (even though she was vegetarian), they tried to force wedding invitations to people not on our list, and my mom threatened to not show up because it was a 21+ wedding.
After the dinner, my dad (part of the Q conspiracy) went on a 6th tirade about how ivermectin is the cure to cancer and said (but not actually saying it) that she would still be alive if she would’ve taken it in the first place. He previously promised to never bring it up again after the 3rd time. Followed it up by saying that he was “glad” that Hannah saw how 401Ks were scams because of tax penalties in withdrawals. For context, she wanted to cash out her 401Ks but chose not to because she knew I would get hit with the tax penalties next year.
I thought I could get past this, but when I invited my mother out to a Mothers Day brunch the next day, she said that brunches were too early and they would call back with a backup plan. She didn’t even let me revise. All she said was “you can join us for dinner, if you want”. They never called with the backup plan.
I’m supposed to meet them for a nice dinner and a baseball game at the end of the month, but I don’t want to anymore and I just can’t deal with them right now. They offered to help with my move, but I don’t want them around for that either.
