Yes to sitting in the back. You don't need to stay for the luncheon (if there is one) or go to the gravesite.

If not, I agree - show up sit in the back, pay your respects and leave. Don't tell anyone you are dating him.

He told me when the funeral is. He didn’t ask me to go,

He just lost his mother... he can’t handle navigating the awkwardness of inviting you to the funeral. I agree with all who’ve said to go and sit in the back. FWIW, anytime you can show up at a funeral you should. Even if you just wanted to be friends, it’s nice to go. Don’t overthink this one!

Your presence at a funeral is meaningless to the deceased. You go to support the loved ones left behind.

Funerals are for the living, dont you know that? If this guy is such a snowflake and can't handle life, then by all means go with him.

There’s something seriously wrong with you.

How is going to his mother’s funeral playing wife?

Go, but be COMPLETELY unobtrusive. Don't say anthing to anyone other than "we're friends."

I wouldn’t. Don’t play wife to someone you’ve been out with twice.

I would go but not with him as one PP suggested. Sit in the back, don't be clingy but do let him know you were there.

Go. He’ll remember the people who were there for him.

Yes, I would. Even if it does not go anywhere, it's the supportive thing to do.

We’ve only been on 2 dates. Haven’t met friends or family yet. His mom died unexpectedly.
