Angry- Ex's Girlfriend

Ds with ex atm, he rang yesterday and said...Just so you know, "girlfriend" hasn't been badmouthing you to ds, ds asked if she could come play at his and mummy's house and she said she didn't know if mummy liked him and now ds thinks you don't like her.

Am I totally over-reacting or is this not on? I go to great lengths to ensure ds feels happy and isn't exposed to any issues between myself and ex. I have only met ex's gf once and never ever hinted to ds of a problem. He is only 4 and for the first time he is confused and wondering why I may not like her?!

Ds coming home today and no doubt will ask me if "girlfriend" can come play. I may just call her bluff and say I'd love for her to come over lol. I don't know, but I'm pretty pissed off as she has no doubt confused ds. WWYD?

Possibly a bit over-reacting? She probably had no idea what to say and it was just the first thing that came into her head. If he asks, say you don't know her because she is Daddy's friend but you are very happy that he likes her.

She probably didn't know what to say. If she said no then your DS might have thought she didn't like him and if she said yes then he'd have come home saying she was coming round. Bit of a panic answer maybe but i don't think there is anything malicious behind it.

Thanks for your replies. Yeh I guess that's true, she was put on the spot. just feel like I look like the "bad guy" now, but will say I don't know her and pleased he likes her thats a good idea :)
