mark has been divorced for over 5yrs but by the way his ex acts u would never know it.she is always trying to get info(always in a sneaky way) about us from my inlaws.for example we told marks 9yr old son we are "thinking" about having a baby.well he must have told his mom as she "ran" over to my inlaws to ask "if they knew about our new baby" but never asked us about it and she sees us all the time.if she is not trying to get info about us then she is bad mouthing us to anyone that will listen.the only "bad" thing mark ever did was divorce her and it was not for me.she just treated him like crap till he could not take it any more and left but left her everything house,car.money.the only reason we put up with it is because of thier son they share we don't want to put him in the middle.is this normal that she is so consumed/bitter with our life still after 5yrs?it started to ware on my nurves how can i deal with this?

It's natural for her to be curious about it, however she should be respectful enough to understand the situation and stop snooping around. Since they have a child together it is harder to completely take her out of the situation. So you are left with little choice other than to pay no attention to the things she is trying to find out. She is jealous and slightly obsessed over you and your husbands relationship since it did not work out with her. Your best bet is either to ignore her, or to have your husband confront her. Unfortunately, she will be in your life forever because of their child but she should not be acting in this way. Your the better person, you have him. It's just embarassing that she bad mouths you. Lucikly, whoever she says it to I'm sure will be able to understand why your husband chose you and not her.

All I can say is ignore it. My husband has an ex girlfriend that he has a child with, they split up 9 years ago (she is married with another kid too, but she is too bitter to leave us alone). It is still pretty much the same with her. The only good thing is my in laws don't like her so they don't talk to her, but when you share a child, they get a lot of info that way. Just live your life happily with your husband as if she doesn't exist (that's what I do). The happier you are, the madder she will be, and that would put a smile on my face (I'm a bit of a bitc$).

Put a bug in her ear that you and Mark have chosen a husband for her, he's 79 years old and limps, has no income coming in, has a fear of bathing but you and him think it's a match made in heaven.

Shes no longer part of the family why does your husband tolerate her interfering in your lives.Your man should put his foot down and say something.

Get her a dog, or something else to take up her time ... preferably one trained to chew her shoes and pee on her carpet
