Just smile and greet her the way you might greet the parents of one of your son's teammates who you didn't know very well. A simple "Hey, how are things?" without really expecting an answer is polite without being demanding. Don't make a point to sit near her, but don't avoid her either. If she throws a fit again in the future, you might want to ask your ex if he can shed some light on the situation. (Assuming you two are on good terms.)

I still think you should be nice to her and act like it never happened. Whatever problems her and your ex are having is between them. If you don't feel comfortable talking to her at least acknowledge her and make her feel welcomed. You don't want to cause contention or strain between everyone because there are kids involved. Remember the children. They didn't ask for this so make sure to not involve them or make any scenes. It doesn't sound like you would anyways, but if she overreacts then let it be her problem. Don't go down to her level just because she can't act like an adult. If you ignore her then it'll just cause problems. But like I said if you're not comfortable having a conversation you need to acknowledge her. But if she doesn't talk to you I wouldn't worry about it. You're the adult obvisously. Good luck!

You are the better woman for even talking to her. She was in the wrong for talking to your ex and that was your best friend. Why is she flipping out anyway? She has a lot of nerve with her phony a$s. Hell no don't acknowledge her.

Be civilized, be kind, and be cool. She will appreciate your civility, and if she doesn't, you still have been the civilized person, you will have done the decent thing, and will have nothing to regret.
The PAST is the PAST, and the sooner more people realize it and get ON with their lives, the better. NOBODY ownes ANYONE, and if someone is from their PAST, everyone should be ADULT and respect that the other person HAS moved on and is STILL a human being that should be respected.

Yes you continue to be nice.It is not about you ,her, or your x.It is about the children.She was comfortable until he showed up because in my opinion and i could be wrong,he is saying negative things about you to her.She probably doesn't feel the same way he does but acts like that to stay on his good side,if there is a good side.You try to get along with them for the children sake.Don't let her switching up like that make you bitter for her or him.

She is very insecure, I guess she's afraid you are trying to get him back. I wouldn't bother to be nice anymore, just ignore that she is around. If you and your ex are speaking, I would tell him why you will be the way you are. Because she's nuts..

Yes. I would take the high road and just say hi with a warm smile, you don't have to make conversation or anything. Just 'oh hi, how are you, smile and walk away' ...that's all.

well, it seems like she is a little jealous of you. i would talk to your ex husband and see what he thinks. sounds like he gets the brunt of it. and if it dosent matter to him, i would still at least acknowledge her. if for no other reason than it makes you feel good.

I agree with Jane. Just say hi, be cordial. This is about the influence it has on your son, not about you.
