| Her reaction makes sense to me too. She was uncomfortable, but her son didn’t think it was a big deal. |

| I’d need to know more. Are you aware of his last few gfs? How long have you been dating? When looking for a pet sitter my bf suggested his ex. They are cordial but no longer close but I told him it would likely be weird for her to watch our dog while we are on vacation. |

You got vacation.
She got dog poop. I’d say you are in good shape. |

| Had you ever heard of this gf before? Like, if they're friendly enough for dog sitting and you're close enough to travel with the family I would have expected to know by that point that the girl existed and that they're still in touch. |

| If he would have been up front and shared what was happening I think I would have been okay with the situation. When people withhold from telling someone something, there's usually a reason IMO. Fine that an ex is watching a dog but why didn't he just give you a heads up or let you know...that would be my concern. |

I’d be more weirded out if the boyfriend had acted like that.
I’d take a wait and see approach and see how your boyfriend acts from now on. We are still in relationship with BIL’s ex of 15 years because we grew close over that long time period. BIL is okay with it, and ex and BIL used to watch each other’s cats even after they broke up. Sometimes, relationships are not 100% severed between other family members just due to a break up. The mom definitely acted odd though. Maybe she could not handle the awkwardness. |
