Grow up! It’s a kids play date. Don’t try to read anything more into it, or you’ll look like the fool you are. Women are better at being ‘just friends’ than men - IF she’s single, interested, you’ll know soon enough but you’re looking at this all wrong, you’re seeing any contact / conversation with a woman as being a potential relationship. Just take the kids out

Theres no need to be so nasty to the OP, he only asked.

OP, your ex sounds like a rather unstable person and has messed up your thinking, which is understandable after a long relationship. Don’t listen to her anymore.

As others have said, this mum is just looking for a play date for her daughter. You don’t need to read anything onto it.
