My husband's ex girlfriend called our house out of the blue to put my husband on 'standby' because her mother was on hospice and was given 2 weeks. A mutual friend of theirs gave her our number. The problem I'm having is him and her haven't been together for 13 years and as far as I know they haven't spoken to each other or seen each other since, except for another mutual friend's funeral about 4 years back. My husband wants to go. I guess I'm not understanding why because of the length of time that has passed, let alone the fact that they aren't really friends either. Additionally, during the time that they were together (total of 4 years), the mother didn't approve of the relationship because of the different backgrounds, although she was nice to him in person. Also, being that I'm his wife, why am I not going. You don't go to weddings alone, why would you go to funerals alone. I feel bad about the loss, I'm not trying to be insensitive, but I just don't understand the need.
