[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It never hurts to be kind. You both are grieving a major loss. [/quote]

Op here, I'm grieving, but she is not. She did not love my dad, and it was obvious to everyone but him. I felt like it was foolish to remarry so late in life (he was 77 when they married) and with so much to lose due to the legalities/technicalities of marriage.[/quote]

You sound like a really mean person. How do YOU know her feelings towards your dad? You seem to have held her at arm's length. My dad is 77 and just started dating someone last year (or very early this year?) after my mom died three years ago. He's happier and having more fun than he was ever able to have with my mom. His personality is lighter. How do you quantify love? I don't care how much this woman loves him. She makes him happy. [/quote]

Boy, OP, you sure know a lot about a person you met less than 5 times. You know what's insider her heart, her mind and her motives. You seem to infer that she couldn't have possibly loved your father because she was nothing but a gold digger trying to weasel you out of your inheritance, right?

For the last few years of your father's life, did she take care of him until she couldn't any more? Is she elderly herself? Did you expect her to do physically demanding tasks for your dad?  If you only saw her a few times, does that mean you also only saw your father a few times during those years?[/quote]
