To NOT ask what her problem is?

FutTheShuckUp · 01/03/2013 18:36

One of the Mums from school has taken to completely blanking me whenever we are in the same setting and has even removed me from facebook.
As far as I know ive said/done nothing offensive to her and I speak to many of the other parents in the class so dont think ive been uber offensive or anything.
Half of me thinks I want to ask why she has an issue with me and find out if ive inadvertedly offended her and the other stronger half thinks fuck it, if someone wants to be like this then rise above it and dont give them the satisfaction.
WWYD?

i'd want to know as someone could be spreading rumours about something you said/didnt say. then again depends how important i viewed the friendship or has she powers at a board level or anything?

amillionyears · 01/03/2013 18:42

is she snobbish?

FutTheShuckUp · 01/03/2013 18:44

I think if someone I had previously been friendly with, suddenly stopped talking to me, then I'd want to know why, so if it were me, I'd ask.
Up to you though.

I'm the sort of person who would be tormented by this and be miserable and want to try and make nice. So, I would approach and ask. I wish I were the sort of person to simply not give a fuck.

I'd like to do the second option but I'd probably do the first (or chicken out and ask a mutual friend if they had a clue what her problem was).

freddiefrog · 01/03/2013 18:54

It depends on her generally

If it was someone I previously got on with and didn't have form for randomly blanking people then I'd be concerned I'd inadvertently upset her and would probably ask

However, there's a mum at our school who will talk to you one day and ignore you the next and I just can't be arsed with that level of angst

MerryCouthyMows · 01/03/2013 19:33

I'd shrug and not give a fuck. Who cares if people are spreading rumours about me? I don't!

If people want to be petty about god knows what, leave 'em to it, I say.

amillionyears · 01/03/2013 19:53

Not sure what I would do actually.[not like me at all!]
I think I would be the same as freddiefrog.
I dont do Facebook, but I presume if she has removed you from there, then it is probably for a bit more serious reason?
Think I would ask her, or has she got a non close friend who you could ask?

FeistyLass · 01/03/2013 19:57

I think it depends how friendly you were in the first place.
I'm in the exact same situation with one of dh's relatives and haven't asked. Mind you, she changes her mind like the wind so it's just easier to ignore it. I can't say I don't wonder what it's about but not enough to ask the question.
However if it was one of my close friends, I'd be asking her what was going on.
