Ok, some of y'all know a little bit about why I left my ex fiancee. A lot of it had to do with his mom. She treated me like gold to my face and stabbed me in the back when it was turned at first, but later she just treated me like crap openly.....No matter what I did it wasn't good enough in her eyes........I'm not the only one she's done this to, she broke up my ex's first marriage with her venom (actually she screwed up every one of her kids' relationships and she had four children)....

I just found out today that my ex's mom died last month. i have a lot of mixed feelings about it, happy, a little sad (just a TEENY BIT).....mostly i just hope she made her peace with god.....


Am I crazy for being happy (even just a little happy?)

Ding Dong the witch is dead, the witch is dead, ding dong the wicked witch is dead

No! She Sounds Like a Nasty Person. It's not odd to Feel Mixed Emotions when someone like that Dies. JMO

Eh well I know exzactly how you feel i had the same senerio . But i let go of what all happend, and I wish the best for everyone, but at that time I probly would have felt no remorce for the witch. lol

agreed, last year when my mom's mother died, it was hard not to feel MIXED about it, she was a nasty, hateful person. who only caused people pain and grief

I hope she made peace with God, too. But, it would have been nice if she'd made peace with those whom she injured.
You can feel sad that she passed away, feel sad for your ex in his loss of his mother, but there's nothing inhumane about feeling nothing more about the loss of life, and there's nothing untoward for feeling a little glee that she's not here to keep screwing with people.

I felt mixed emotions like that when my stepfather died (mean alcoholic). It's only natural.

i agree

i think it is just sick to be happy over the death of someone

Be careful , the ghosts will be after you soon .
I do believe in ghosts .

to be happy, i agree. to have sort of mixed feelings i guess is normal, it takes a while for the news to sink in and you dont know your emotions until i while after. she may feel totally different in a few days.

id never be happy about the death of anyone, EXCEPT murderes, rapists etc

Dont be hard on yourself for how you feel. Just realize that you now know how you would NOT want others to feel when you die!!! As long as you were not part of why she treated you like that, you have nothing to feel guilty about.

debbie, i don't mean like i'm happy that she died what was probably a terrifying death.....but she's been in pain for a long time...and i still carry a lot of the resentment from how she treated me and her own children....

i know sweetie, i understand. i didnt say you were happy, you never said you were. i was saying i understand you have mixed feelings and the news probably hasnt sunk in yet.

actually she did state she was happy

i did??

no, the OP

i read back, ive just saw.
