[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe she thinks your kid was mean to her kid? Who knows. I'd chalk it up to "weird" and try to move on and be normal.[/quote]

Just keep killing being friendly, but I would stop trying to talk to her directly.  Some women are super standoffish and normally it's much more about THEM than about YOU.  I've been surprised at how many are like this at school events etc when I KNOW THEY KNOW who I am, but they will look right through me.  Eventually you stop caring, and I just talk to the people I actually do like and ignore it.

If you are MAGA, that's what it is.  So just a tip.[/quote]
Or she’s the MAGA. [/quote]

Yeah, OP went out of her way to say they "don't talk politics." Which leads me to believe perhaps OP knows it is politics but wants to deny it since they haven't been discussing it. I think politics might be it -- even if they haven't "talked" about it. One of them knows the other is MAGA or wrongly thinks so (some weird thing happened at work where some of the younger people talked about me being a Republican ... which I am most certainly not) or something. [/quote]
I prefaced my post with that because I know someone would ask “have you talked politics?” No, we haven’t. Nor religion, or anything else tricky. [/quote]

You didn't really answer the big question here though -- you are still doing this "we haven't discussed that" thing. Are you MAGA? Because she could know, even if you didn't "talk politics." [/quote]

Totally.  Not saying I agree with any of this but people gossip about who is MAGA and spread it around and for some people, it will cause them to shun you.  [/quote]
