Last year on May 28th my Mom fell down some stairs in her home and later died on May 31st. Emergency brain surgery to alleviate the pressure from the bleeding was done, but the impact was so severe that this procedure could not save her. My family and I had to make the very difficult decision to leave her on life support with no chance of any type of normal function or to take her off and let nature take it's course. We all agreed after 3 doctors confirmed the above prognosis to let nature take it's course and she passed peacefully a day and a half later. She was 60.
My father has been dating for the past couple months, and I've been fine with that. I really don't care what he does and have no right to anyway. But, he has been getting closer with one particular woman and they have had dinner and sex numerous times in my Dad's house. (I know this because he tells my brother all the nasty details and my brother then tells me - I know, weird. We kinda have a dysfunctional family.) SO what's bothering me is the fact of him doing those things with HER in my Mom's house.
I know it makes no sense whatsoever, and I understand he has to "move on", but it still just bothers me. The other thing is now he's really pushing me to meet her, and I just don't want to right now.
Has anyone here gone through this? Any advice?
Thanks.

I'm sorry for the loss of your mother. I think your feelings are not unusual. The best advice I can give you is to be open and honest with your father. If you don't feel ready to meet his lady friend you should tell him. You should also ask your brother not to share any graphic stories of your father's sex life with you, because clearly it bothers you, so why subject yourself to it.
