My grandmother died last week. My granparents had been married for 59 years.

Everyone knows my grandfather has kept a mistress for the past 12 years. She lives in an apartment he pays for, he bought her a car and gives her an allowance every month.

To everyone's astonishment, she showed up at my grandmother's funeral to give him her support. No one could believe their eyes. My father and uncles were furious and quickly told my grandfather that he was either telling her to go away or they would drag her out by her hair.

There was another woman there who had been my grandpa's mistress about 40 years ago and by who he had another son. My father and uncles tolerated her out of respect for their half brother.

But how did that women had the nerve to show up without being invited? Especially when my grandfather is devastated, the last thing he needed was a scandal.

My father's mistress showed up for what she thought was a Christmas party at my father's house and discovered it was actually an engagement party for the other woman he had on the side. (Three overlapped each other).

Isn't it?

We used to laugh that a lot of men can't even get a date, much less a relationship, or just one other person, and he got three all at once.

I feel bad for your grandma.

Such disrespect. At her funeral? On both their parts. Especially the mistress.

I have seen this happen on numerous occasions in my own family. One such person was actually a pastor of a church when he passed away, and two of his mistresses showed up. People in the know were ticked off and all that, but honestly I felt why shouldn't they come and pay their respects? Why shouldn't they be allowed to mourn at a funeral for someone they cared about? I know the wife of the deceased may have strong feelings about it and rightfully so, but there wouldn't have been a mistress to begin with if the husband she is crying over, didn't break his vows and cheat. And in spite of the wrong the mistress did, she may still have strong feelings for this man, and is deeply saddened that he is no longer in her life.

My grandmother obviously knew about her. She also met a few times with the other mistress, his love child's mother.
