DS is 8 & plays for a local youth team.
Until his dad and I split up last year I used to go most weekends and watch him (though I confess when it was freezing and snow on ground etc I tended to give it a miss...). When we split up I stopped going only because we were essentially avoiding each other & his dad is one of the coaches (and therefore has to be there).
In my mind, this was a short term solution until we - and the DC - got used to us not being together as a couple. So a couple of weeks ago, I started going again.
DS's Dad has now said he doesn't want me turning up to matches as he finds it awkward me being there, and that it is confusing the DC. I know that the woman he is seeing (who I'm not supposed to know about) wasn't happy about it and had a go at him - or so I've been told via friends who know her.
I don't think I'm doing anything wrong in wanting to watch DS (he was really pleased last time I came) but am wiling to accept I might be seeing it simply from proud mummy point of view.
so, AIBU?
