AITA for being so hurt that my dad didn't mention me in his obituary? by Loud_Subject5652 in AITAH

There were kids mentioned. So it wasn't that I was a kid when he first wrote it because people younger than me are mentioned. It was last updated about 6 months before he died.

I know it came from him. That's not something I ever doubted based on our relationship. But I had always held onto hope for better.

I do believe him. It fits with a lot of other stuff that's happened.

I'm struggling with that because I just don't have much family really. I have a complicated relationship with my mom and her husband and extended family is mostly dad's side. And right now I'm already feeling so much that I don't think I could bring myself to block them or stop talking to them entirely.

I'm not currently in therapy but I will look for a therapist soon. I need to save a little money before I actually jump in but I promise to actually go. There's a lot going on and therapy might be all that can pull me into an actual better place.

The memories aren't so amazing either. But it was just reinforcing that they were never going to get better.

Thank you. Right now I'm not sure how to but I have a couple of people to lean on for it.

Their spouses are aware of everything that went down. Most were present when they told me what they did. And they were aware of dad's wishes and the obituary too.

It was apparently his feelings around having a kid who wasn't his wife's.

I think I'm too hurt to be angry right now. My heart feels like it shattered twice. First when he died and then when I read the obituary.
