[quote=Anonymous] For those of you who've had a parent remarry while you are an adult and then the parent passes away, what happened with your relationship with the second spouse after your parent passed? I am currently navigating this situation. My dad remarried after my mom passed, and at the time of the remarriage, I was already well into adulthood and established, so there was no traditional stepparent relationship. My dad recently passed away; he and his second spouse had been married for two years at the time of his passing. I have a cordial relationship with the second wife, but nothing beyond the surface. I can count on one hand the times I've been around her in person. I assumed his passing would naturally end my relationship with her. However, she continues to reach out post-death, and I am uninterested. I've never trusted her and feel her outreach has an agenda. Would you gently state as much or ignore the contact and assume it will fade with time? [/quote]
