Feeling blue

Not really looking for advice more venting. My do is at a family function tonight (to say me and his family don't get on is putting it midly) I was invited but due to little ds couldn't go. Found out that my dps ex has also been invited. I'm so pissed off, one that I wasn't warned, relations aren't exactly great, and two that after 8 years of seperation she is still being invited to family functions. I feel it's disrespectful if we all got on and no problems I wouldn't mind but she makes our lives hell and still part of the family. There is no escape! Just feeling shitty and wanted to vent

My DH's XW and her DH came to our wedding! We get on OK, but have very limited contact, but if there had been friction/trouble/dislike between us we wouldn't have invited them!

Would you have wanted to go if you could?
If the answer is No then you have dodged a bullet.
My SiL sometimes invites DP's ex to her DCs birthday parties (SDC and her DC are in the same year at school and live closeby) but DP refuses to go if his ex is there. His parents go to the parties but refuse to speak to or acknowledge the ex.
I stay away because it's easier and I wouldn't choose to go anyway!
