Not even my dashing 22 year old Johns Hopkins educated IT intern knows what the dickens you are asking my dear fellow. I implore you to be more concise.

Going to need some clarification, or a pretty significant edit

Jeez people, read the post again. He said his ex's husband. His ex is a girl, her husband died. He went to the funeral without telling his wife.

I am very confused about the content of this thread.




Sounds like the OP, a man, was friends with his wife's ex. Considering he said they used to work together...not that hard to imagine the scenario.

Now that the ex has died, OP (again a man) would like to pay his respects and go to the funeral.

Meh.

Him being gay and now being married to a woman makes this thread infinitely more interesting.

See you say people are being sarcastic...but multiple other threads have proven many on the OT struggle with basic reading comprehension

Hiding that you went is probably the worst thing you could have done out of all your options.

It’s OP’s ex-girlfriend’s (or his ex-wife’s) husband. Ex’s as in possessive. I read it as ex first too

My wife wouldn't care but at the same time I've never really chomped at the bit to go to any funeral. So I can't really imagine ever getting into drama with my wife about that particular issue.

Actually after re-reading it sounds like he is talking about his ex-wife's current (deceased) husband and how his current wife would react to him going to his funeral.

That's the best way to build trust with your wife regarding your relationship with your newly single and emotionally vulnerable ex. Good work.

She would be more upset I was having sex with dudes before we got married.

Wow. How did so many of us totally misread? I swear it said ex-husband. I’m dumb.

Ok, I finally understand. I think she also should have gone to the funeral. You don't go to the funeral for the deceased. You go for the family. Did she hate her inlaws?

Sounds like I still don't understand.
