DD has become really good friends with a girl she used to go to school with (2 year age gap) and whenever her dad would collect her from school the most I would get from him was a hello.
DD has attended a few sleepovers at their house and there have been a couple of occasions where I’ve collected my daughter from the dad. I was quite shocked at just how chatty he was. He made quite a big point of how they’ve travelled and how he earns 3x the amount of the teachers at school.
When collecting the kids in the playground at school I’ve clocked him looking at me. Looks at me and then looks back to where he was before.
Recently my son had an extra training session with football, walking across the grass and he calls out to say hello. Couple of weeks go by and he’s changed his son’s football team so he’s playing with my boy. His son was in an older team and their best player. Previous to him seeing us at training I don’t think he knew my son played for the team.
Collect my kids from a play date at their house and the dad is the first one to walk to the gate to speak to me. He mentions about the game the following day, I inform him my son isn’t allowed to play matches (whole other story 😂) his partner then also comes across to speak, almost feel like she doesn’t trust him (he’s cheated on her previously - so rightly so!)
Is this slightly unusual behaviour? Or am I looking into it too much? 😂
