NTA. I’m sorry for your loss and how inconsiderate your “friend” was. I’m more than twice your age and lost a parent two decades ago. I would have been inconsolable receiving a gift like that.
J
I also am sorry for your loss. NTA at all. I, almost three times your age, lost my mom two years ago last week and am still struggling at times. There is never ever a timeline for grieving. Still talk to her or write to her what you feel is unsaid. Might help a bit. Hugs!
C
NTA. Grief has no timeline, and that “gift” was cruel not funny. Did nothing wrong.
C
Agree.
E
I lost my mom more than 40 years ago. This would still be a cruel gift. There’s no statute of limitations on grief. I don’t buy it that Kayla had no ill intent. Especially since she said you should be over it by now. Show that text to your friends and they’ll probably agree.
E
Same, and 7 years ago. I still have days of bursting into tears very easily. Losing one’s mom is a very visceral experience. I will never get over it.
B
Same. I’m 46 and it’s almost been a decade but I still have those days. I’ve been having a lot lately as I just found out I’m going to be a grandmother. I find myself wishing I could talk to her. I will never get over it either.
S
My mom has been gone a very long time too. I still find myself picking things up in stores thinking she would live this for her upcoming birthday. I would be horrified if someone gave me this! Shame on that “friend”!
J
A few years ago I lost my father. My family and I joke about my dad’s passing. (The ddp dead dad pass)But WE started the joke, it wasn’t a random friend who had decided we’d grieved enough. If someone has given this to me 8mo after my father passed away I’d probably have punched them.
N
Totally agree. I lost my mom a few years back & regularly joke about how she has the best excuse to miss events now or say something like ‘well, yeah, because she just had to die on me like that’. But that is coming from me, the grieving party in this. And not just a few short months after the loss, too! Your ‘friend’ probably has not experienced a pain like this, especially with unresolved feelings in the mix as well, OP. Take your time and give yourself the room to grieve. If that means distance from the ‘friend’ – do that! You have every right to take care of yourself in this hard time. Nobody has a right to tell you when your grief should stop (spoiler alert: it never really does). Take care!
I
Absolutely agree. I lost my mom going on 4 years ago now, and while I’ve always had a dark sense of humor and made jokes VERY quickly as a coping mechanism (like calling my best friend saying I joined a new club ((dead moms club)), I was still considerate enough not to make those jokes in front of some of my siblings, and my step father, who cope and grieve differently than myself and would’ve been much more hurt hearing them. No one gets to decide that the way you’re grieving is incorrect or dramatic or overboard, or that you’re taking too long to get comfortable with the fact that someone you cared for deeply and have ALWAYS had around is now gone. Your friend was being extremely inconsiderate and any friends defending her are all unempathetic assholes.
V
My Mom died in 2018, and I still grieve.
M
I’ve joined the Orphaned Adult Club and I’m in my thirties. It sucks but sometimes I have to joke or I’ll cry.
I
I definitely would have launched the cup at her. That’s horrific, I wouldn’t dream of doing something like that.
M
I joke about my dad too. And I am also not over it and probably won’t ever be.
S
You don’t get over grief. You just learn to walk through life while carrying it. Never feel bad about it because we all feel that way too.
S
A big soul leaves a big hole. I lost my 19yo, and I am a DIFFERENT person because of it. You learn to live AROUND it, as there is NO getting over it.
S
There’s a big difference between gentle jokes and what Kayla did! When I and some family members were driving away from my grandmother’s burial, we laughed and joked so much one of us said if anyone saw us they’d never understand! But somehow, laughing about our grandmother’s probable reaction to some of the incidents at the funeral and burial made things a little easier. It was all good-natured – we adored her; she was the kindest person I ever knew, but still had a great sense of humour and eye for the ridiculous and silly things in life.
O
We joked about our mom passing right before tax season. She was an accountant and always helped us do our taxes.
I
I was 14 when my father died in 1980! and a tender father-daughter moment in a movie can still get to me. My narc mother died much more recently. No qualms although I miss the mother I wished she was. There is no timetable for grief and unless you have shared dark humour and made similar jokes in the past you do not give physical gifts that rub salt in the wound. And you don’t get pissed off when your jokes falls flat. OP, I’m so so sorry. Firsts are always hard and you’re so young. Be gentle with yourself and take your time to treasure the friends who understand and distance yourself emotionally from those who don’t.
Q
11, 2002, mother. I don’t think I’ll ever be able to watch a “dead mum movie” as I call them 😅 I can’t even deal with Brother Bear. I skipped the Thor movie where Jane got cancer because that was too close lol
W
The anniversary of my dad’s passing was yesterday. Three years. I can’t finish the True Grit with Jeff Bridges without crying.
S
I made the mistake of binging Vampire Diaries while I was on grief leave from work when my mom died and boy howdy the episode where Caroline’s mom dies… That was NOT a good episode. I cried for hours.
M
I’m 61. I lost my.mom last year. It is possible I would have thrown hands.
F
My dad lost his parent when he was just mid forties, his dad was his best friend. Its been 15 years and he still struggles with is. My mom and her mother didn’t have a good relationship. She was abusive when mom was a kid but she still visited her and tried to have a relationship. Mom never got closure and that still messes with her. Grief is a weird thing and different for every person. 8 month is such little time and especially every first holiday or occasion without a loved one will bring their own challenges
C
I’M allowed to make orphan jokes. Fuck anyone else who tries that on me. Just like with so many other sensitive kinds of jokes (fat, racial, gender), you don’t get to make them if you’re not in the club.
P
That’s not your friend! I’m almost double your age and I lost my dad in 1999 and I would have been devastated and angry with a gift like that. You could share with her how terrible her behavior was or you could simply cut her off. But please don’t subject yourself to shitty people like that who act like they’re your friend. I’m so sorry for the loss of your Mom. Take your time to grieve in whatever ways you need.
A
Same here. Many of my friends and I have lost our mothers (always the mothers, not dads for some reason) and obviously wouldn’t even dream of doing this no matter how much time has passed. She is a wannabe mean girl.
N
Agreed. I lost my dad nearly two decades ago. I’m mostly “over it” in the everyday sense, but I will never stop missing him, and if anyone gave me a mug like that, I would still – even these many years later – be very hurt by their action. Broad rule of thumb: it’s fine if you want to make a joke about your own experience of loss. It’s not fine if you make a joke about someone else’s loss. (And how dare she message OP and put the blame on them for their reaction to her joke!)
D
The only response I would give Kayla is ‘Nobsweetheart you embarrassed yourself and I’m not low IQ enough to ever call you a friend again. I can’t wait to see how you spin this event to be the victim.
W
Ditto on all counts . Lost mine suddenly as OP did as well. NTA, sorry this happened OP. I would try talking with her to help her understand that losing a parent hits different, and that this hurt. I still wake up crying 22 years later.
R
Correct. There is absolutely no reason when making light of a dead parent is ok. My dad had passed a few years and my friend made a joke about seeing a doctor so “I don’t end up like him”. That cut me to the core and I remember how I felt, even 17 yrs later.
L
That’s not funny. She’s just not funny and should apologize. 8 months? I was 50 when my mom died at 70 I cried on Mother’s Day, her birthday… it has been 15 years and it still hits me that I miss her.
O
Yeah, my mother died 15 years ago as well, and this post is making me cry. Your friend was insensitive, but if she had apologized it would be OK. But instead she doubled down and blamed you.
B
My mother’s been gone 22 years, and I’m not over it. I’m used to it, but not over it. I never will be.
J
19 years and same. I will never get over it.
T
Mine too. There are times when the pain of losing her brings me to my knees.
1
I lost my Dad when I was in my teens, I’m over 50 now. It still gets to me sometimes. I’ve found that the grief gets ‘quieter’ and you learn to live with it, but you never get over it. OP this Kayla is not your friend and that present wasn’t a joke it was cruel and nasty.
P
I read something once about grief that made sense to me. It said grief is like a box with a ball & a button on the side. Every time the button gets pushed, you feel the pain of grief. Initially, the ball is huge & the button gets pushed all the time. As time goes on, the ball shrinks in size & the button doesn’t get pushed as often. As the years go by, the ball becomes tiny & it seldom hits the button but when it does, it still hits just as hard as in the beginning. My Mom died in 1987. (I was 26). My Dad died in 2004. It doesn’t happen often but I still occasionally get hit with that shot of grief. It never goes away completely. The button is still there.
L
I’m 51 and lost my Mom almost exactly 5 years ago. I still hide in the bathroom alone & cry for a few minutes on every holiday & “important date,” because I miss her so much. She always brought a little extra sparkle to every occasion, and it has never & will never be the same again. OP, your friend’s gifts were cruel, heartless, and unbelievably inappropriate. There’s nothing funny about losing a beloved parent- the grief can linger forever. You are DEFINITELY NTA in this situation. I’m so sorry for your loss. ❤️🩹
O
Oh god, same. I’m also 51, lost my mother nearly 7 years ago, and still have bouts of crying because I just want my Mom. People who still have both parents just can’t understand, I think. Which doesn’t excuse your friend’s cruelty and selfishness, OP.
M
My dad died in March 1980. My mom died in March 1986. My sister and I still hate the month of March.
T
My late husband died in March of 2016. I completely understand
J
Same here at the same ages but only 5 years ago for me. I cry whenever I watch star trek because the franchise has been destroyed….no, i cry because mom really really loved all things star trek.
M
52, now. Ten years for me, and it now it really only hits me hard occasionally. But it does still hit me hard sometimes.
G
My mother died 4 years ago and every day I wake up and feel like it isn’t real. I just picture her still gardening somewhere. She loved to garden. So in my mind she’s still plodding along with her rake and wheelbarrow on a sunny morning healthy as can be, not a sign of cancer. To OP and the others commenting that they lost their moms… I understand and teared up a bit reading. And OP is NTA of course.
C
I lost mine Christmas Day 2017 and I still have trouble. Doesn’t help that Dec 17th is the anniversary of my fiance’s passing as well, I lost him in 2021
L
There’s no expiration date on grief, and I don’t even understand the joke.
S
The “joke” is a play on the phrase “fatherless behavior.” Fatherless Behavior is a misogynistic phrase that people use against women to attribute their negative qualities to having no father. For example: a woman who may sleep around a lot, dress promiscuously, act like a pick me/seek male attention & approval, etc. are what some may describe as exhibiting fatherless behavior. It’s basically just another way to say you have daddy issues, and/or say that someone turned out poorly because they lack a positive father figure. The hoodie and mug OP received don’t really have the same negative implications, it’s just wordplay. edit: changed a word. im sleepy and said “attribute” twice
