He Called Off Our Wedding Because I Missed His Dad’s Funeral — Now He Wants to Restart It

I was set to marry in March, but everything changed when my fiancé’s father died unexpectedly in November. The funeral was in December, yet my employer’s strict no-leave rule meant I couldn’t attend. I begged for an exception and even helped pay for arrangements, but the request was denied. His mother insisted I be there. When I couldn’t go, he cancelled the wedding. Months later, he called to say I’d “failed the test” of a good wife. He claimed to have forgiven me, picked a new date for August, and expected me to start preparing. I told him I was no longer interested. He and his mother keep pressuring me and my family despite my clear refusal. I’m now weighing legal action. Is this love, or just entitlement? What would you do in my shoes?
