Oh fuck....

My dm and father divorced when I was a baby. No contact from him at all (in my 40s now). He died a couple of years ago (found out through my uncle). I've just accepted a fb friend request from his widow. Why????

Just see how it goes. If she becomes weird or bothersome, just block her.

restrict is your friend

Maybe she has some inheritance for you?

I am nc with my df /sm but would accept the request out of sheer curiosity...

Yup, just curious really. How do I restrict what she has access to?

Send her a message and get to the point quickly "Thanks for friending me, I was just wondering if there was anything in particular that you wanted to get in touch for?" ....then decide what you want to do. I'd make it all on your terms otherwise if might a bit of grief stricken stalky thing that will do nothing but potentially upset you......

@Tinkobell think you are right - but might leave it a day or two. If I admit that I know who she is she'll know I've been a bit stalkery in the past.

Messaged her last night along lines of what tinkobell suggested. Got a response that she didn't mean to, finger slipped. Have blocked her.
