My boyfriend played with my mom's dead corpses
So my mom was on hospice last month, she had cancer. So me and my boyfriend stayed at her house till the end. She was on hospice for 8 days and died. After she died, I went to the kitchen and I started contacting family members about the death. My boyfriend was left alone in the room. When I was done with the phone calls, I went to the room and saw him playing with her death corpse. He was moving her mouth around like she was talking, and he also was moving her hand in a circular motion like she was talking using hand jesters. I started asking him what was he doing and to stop. He stops after I caught him. What should I do about this?

You can do better than someone who âplaysâ with your deceased mothers corpse

No! She clearly stated her mother had corpses. Iâm not sure how many that is but I know itâs at least more than one. This poor girl is going through this mess again and weâll never know when it will stop.

For starters, you can go outside and get a real life. Then you can go apologize to your mother for using her in this made up BS. Then you can just be a decent human being.

While I agree this could just be an extreme morbid curiosity and a mix of dealing with grief, it speaks volumes that he actually crossed such an obvious boundary and did this.
Anyone who gives in to this level of intrusive thought isnât right.

I thought from the title this playing wouldâve been way worse. Still weird for sure but not as bad as I thought.

That could be his way of processing the death even though itâs a little weird. Maybe curiosity got the best of him. Therapy sounds like a good place to start in my opinion.

This is the comment most like what I would have said. Itâs possibly innocent and heâs just poor with his emotions. Or he just doesnât have any. Either way, a therapist is a good start.

Same. I did something similar but I literally had the emotional maturity of a child since I was 8 years old.
This story is made up tho. Not even original

Wtf did I just read.
If this is true he has some serious issues and has absolutely no respect for the dead.
Get out and get out now.

the answer is obvious and that is to kick his sick ass to the curb, what kind of deranged individual plays with the corpse of his girlfriends mother and makes a mockery out of it?

my oldest cousin did something similar with the corpse of his pet even tho in his case the psychologist explained us was a method to cope (hes autistic i specify) so it could just be that, you should try talking with him about it but if he doesnt seem to show he cares then just drop him

Kind of weird but I'm not sure there's anything horrible about it. The brain does crazy things in order to avoid processing its own mortality

Itâs weird but different people process grief in different ways. Just accept that, donât talk about it with him and move on.
EDIT: fuck, I thought she was talking about the father doing thisâŚ! Teaches me to read things more carefully.
No, the boyf doing this is very very weird and you should 100% talk to him about it.

The fuck does it matter whether it was the mom or dad? Are men somehow less human to you?

Thatâs not what they were saying.
They didnât think it was the dad who was dead, they thought it was her dad who was playing with the mumâs corpse, not her boyfriend.

The only person that should be doing anything to the corpse is the mortician. That is a bit weird.

Get him to therapy, donât make him feel like a freak. Get him professional help. Behavior like that is very strange and best left to professionals to address.

I seriously hope this is a troll post but there's some messed up shit out there and in case this isn't, that's pretty disturbing behavior. I would say that you should probably break up with him because that's fucked up.

Whatâs the point of fake stories? Is your life so empty and useless that this is the only way you can find some enjoyment? Sad
