I never did or said anything offensive to her. Could she maybe be mad at me or not like me because my daughter could have said something mean to her daughter before? I don't know of any times where my daughter did anything, but was just wondering if that could be a possibility. Our kids are 5 yrs. old.

Hate to say this but why worry over it. Were u two best friends before? I would just forget it and move on. I'm sure u have more important things to worry about than someone being stuck up and unsociable. Her loss not yours. Don't worry about it.

Is she friendly with the other moms? Maybe she is just an extremely shy person. Have you tried making the first move and talking to her? If she IS shy, that might bring her out of her shell a little bit. It might also be an opening for her to air any issues your daughters may have had (which probably isn't it).
If it doesn't, you may just have to chalk it up the fact that some people aren't very friendly, no matter how friendly you try to be with them.
Good luck.

She, for her own stupid reason, has passed judgement on you. She doesn't like you. My daughter had a friend at school, and I let her stay the night with her friend, and the next day of school, the little girl said, that she couldn't be friends with her anymore because her mother didn't like her. I begged and pleaded with my daughter to tell me if she had done something wrong or taken something from her friends home, and she promised to me that she hadn't.
Well, she let the friend borrow some cd's and a couple of movies, when she spent the night with her. And after hearing what the little girl told my daughter, I was enraged and wanted to get her things bac asap. It took us two weeks to get those things back. We went to the little girls house and I stood in the kitchen with the mom while the two girls went into the bedroom to find her things. When they came out, the mother said; " You are awfully quiet, are you two fighting?"
My daughter looked at me. "Tell her!"
And my daughter told her, and just like a little girl caught in a lie, the mother denied everything.
I'll tell you, my daughter is still friends with the little girl, but the mother is still cold and heartless to my daughter. Sometimes, I get so angry about the fact that she doen't like my child and I want to do something like roll her house with toilet paper, or throw eggs at it, or something like that.

Sounds to me that she is just extremely shy. Try asking her to come over one day and have coffee or lunch and let the kids play. Or ask her to come over to do something crafty with the kids. If that doesn't work ask her flat out, "do you have a problem with me?" Just me personally, I have a group of moms I talk to and if someone doesn't talk to me oh well. I am not here for everyone and I am a very straight forward person so know that not everyone is going to be friends with me. I tend to talk to all the other outspoken moms. Her personality might just be shy though.

Maybe you did something to her in the past and you just dont remember. Maybe shes jealous of you. Maybe some of the other moms have said something to her about you. Why dont you make the first move.

I think there is a good chance. Five year olds do mean things and both forget about it the next day. Mom might be rememebering something neither child can remember.

There are parents like this one where my kids go to school.. I try to make a point to walk by them and say ..hi!, how are you doing? doesn't have to be a long conversation...she just might be a little shy. Try it, you might just end up being best friends during your daughter's school years.. :)

Unless she is blatantly avoiding you or being obviously rude by not returning a hello when you greet her, I would just chalk it up to bad social skills and leave it at that. Don't jump to conclusions - it probably doesn't go that deep.

Maybe she's jealous or something happened with your children that you don't know about. I would try and take the high road and say Hello to her. If she doesn't respond, she's childish and doesn't deserve your friendship anyway.

Simply look at it as "here's another Xmas card I won't be getting this Christmas" and move on.
