Met up with a friend from playgroup today and she brought her DH along. I had DS 8 months with me and she had her 10 month old DD. All fine apart from the fact I know her DH from antenatal class with DD1 now 4 1/2 and he seemed determined to not recognize me.
He was at the class with his then partner. We were friendly and I remember his name.
When my friend introduced him by the name I had remembered, he gave a wide eyed oh shit look and was very uncomfortable throughout. He asked first meeting type questions i.e. where we live, what I do etc ( all the stuff he already knows)
When she went to change DD I decided to confirm he was who I thought he was and not a twin etc. Also that he hadn't just forgot me so said ' so do you have any other children's he replied 'yes DD 4 1/2', I commented on antenatal classes and he mention ex p and asked if I still spoke to her. I said no he said thank god for that.
and laughed.
When friend returned he started up the first meeting stuff up again.
I'm completely confused about the whole meeting
what the hell is going on? Should I mention to friend that I know her DH from before? Or just go along with the whole I don't know you thing he's doing?
This friend has helped me alot recently so I don't want to distance myself from her, lie or cause conflict.
