My DSIL passed away a little over 1 year ago.
A little background, she had a little girl and was going through many rough times. Her DH divorced her and had full custody of the girl. He was trying very hard to get back with my DSIL but things were just not well. My MIL recently was having trouble getting in touch. Finally he called (only about a couple weeks of no communication, not huge gaps) and said he was sorry but having a hard time knowing how to tell her he moved and is getting remarried.
MIL flipped and called my DH several times. the BIL uses facebook to post pics and before DSIL passed was friends with both of us on facebook. He lived/s out of state so it was perfect. DSIL was also on there as our friend.
When DSIL passed, her ex kept the site up so her friends had a place to remember her and grieve. He also occassionally posts pics. Not all her friends were people he wanted to associate with, understandably.
However, he is still accepting friend requests. People I don't believe she knew well or kept in touch with. They occassionally post "hey, how have you been" and things showing they don't know she is deceased.
It gets creepy getting posts on my wall from her account saying she added new friends or posted something. It really bothers DH but I don't think he has said anything. DH doesn't have his own account but uses mine. I don't feel it is up to me to say anything but I actually feel better just letting it out here and saying "it creeps me out".
I could never "unfriend" her so I have to just get past this but I sure wish he would either pass the tourch to MIL or just stop accepting requests. I can't imagine the new wife would really support him keeping that going.
