I dated someone 15 years ago. He & the wife just moved close to where I am. They have been married 12 years, have three adorable kids. Ran into them at the grocery. Said hi. See them out and about and we always talk. I always make a point to include the wife in the conversation. I recently saw her at the store alone. I said "hi" to her and asked how she was doing. Her reply was "don't you ever f'ing talk to my husband again".
what is up with that?? I didn't even ask where he was or anything about him.

I guess I shouldn't have told her how great you were in the sack huh?
Wanna ride the Rocket for old times sakes?

Something tells me that the wife thinks you and her husband must have gotten along too well and there is an insecurity or jealousy developed over something said in their home. Maybe she was being compared to you by him and that did not sit well with her and unfortunately the subconscious was awakened when she saw you. I would say keep a safe distance and see if the problem does cools down. It could also be she was not herself . Be watchful and see what happens.

Are you married? If you are I would suggest you invite her out for coffee and clear the air. maybe her husband still has a thing for you. Let her know that the past is the past and you intersted in a friendship with the both of them as a couple.
If you aren't married then I would sugget doing as she said. Even though you are including her in the conversation you may be sending the wrong messages.
Good luck.

Since he has been gone and married, you may not be aware of past problems between them. It sounds as if the wife is insecure, but maybe she has a good reason. For instance he may have cheated on her where they lived previously. Who knos why they really did have to move. She may have a right to be mad if he cheated in the past. She may look at you and just think "here we go again" type thinking. I would just stay away from the both of them.

Sounds like she's insecure. To answer your question, no, she doesn't have a right to be ticked. It could be, though, that her husband has given her reason in the past to be suspicious, but that has nothing to do with you. It's really something they have to work out between them.

Chances are she's insecure and doesn't have faith in their relationship. He loved you first. You knew him first. I'm sensing a bit of jealousy. Try talking to her about it. Hint, or flat out let her know that those feelings are dead now and you're just looking for a friendship, with the BOTH of them. Unless, of course, you're interested in him again. Which poses a huge problem darling. In that case, you might want to distance yourself until you can put away such feelings for good. You don't want to ruin their marriage.
Good Luck!

She has no right to be ticked at all. First of all, you dated him years ago, and secondly, you lived in the neighborhood first. Lastly, it sounds like there are some issues in the marriage; steer clear, but I'd continue to say hi - just to f... with her. ☺

I'm with Morgana, Niffler. It isn't your fault, so don't take it personally. Sometimes guys rattle on about women they used to date to their present spouses, put the ex up on a pedestal sort of. They think it's no big deal..(after all they aren't with them now)...but sometimes it gets under the wife's skin, and she takes it out on the ex. It just happens.

You sound like you are trying to keep the peace, but who knows what her husband, your Ex, is saying when they are alone? Perhaps he has mentioned you more often than she cares to hear? My suggestion is to just back off and if you happen to see them around, ignore them. You don't need the drama.

My wife met a friend of mine. The she found out that years ago this girl tried to sleep with me, but I told her I only wanted to be friends. Armed with that knowledge, my wife does not want me to be friends with her now.
These things don't always make sense. It's not you.
