My ex left me and our 8 month old baby 5 weeks ago, completely out of the blue! I have taken the split badly as the week before we had been talking about marriage and another baby! My ex knows how hard it's been for me! My dad was in a pub yesterday and heard from behind him 'hi (name) how are you? My dad turned around and it was my ex! Thankfully my father just turned around and walked away! Obviously the other option was to give him a mouthful!

AIBU tO think this was totally inappropriate from my ex, my dad hadn't seen him so he could easily have slipped past!

Given you have a child together then surely if you can keeping things amicable is better?

He said hi to your Dad. I really can’t see a problem with that!

Poor you Flowers

Was your ex not just being polite though?

He's allowed to say hi to his child's grandfather. It's bizarre that you think he shouldn't.

I guess he should have had some respect, and kept a low profile.

He is the father of his grandchild so he can't exactly ignore him forever. If your ex was being polite then he's trying to be amicable which your dad wasn't. Not good for the child if that's how it's going to be.

I just think it's all still to raw at the moment, my dad has seen how upset I have been and still am! I think he should have left it a bit longer to let the dust settle. As I said my dad hadn't seen him, he had his back to the pub, obviously if my dad had seen him then of course it would be polite to say hi. At the moment I'm doing my best to maintain a good relationship with my ex for my sons sake!
