[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One of my DD’s friends’ parents are going through a divorce and the dad has opened up to me about it (he is the parent more often at games etc and we text to make kids’ plans). I was glad he shared since our kids spend time together and it explains some stuff that had been going on. Recently we had to travel for a tournament and all the parents tend to gather for dinner/drinks at the hotel while the kids eat and do their thing. [b]He got talking about everything again [/b]and casually touched my thigh a couple times while we were talking. It made me a little uncomfortable but he tends to just be a friendly guy and I’m sure didn’t mean anything by it but I did find a way to get out of the conversation and move on to talking to others. Was this weird or just harmless/friendly? Maybe he wasn’t even aware he was doing it? I doubt there were any intentions but want to make sure I’m not sending any mixed signals. I’m married BTW.

OP, you can be sure that your intimacy, thigh touch aside, was noted by other parents. He is weaponizing emotional intimacy to lure you in. NOT an appropriate convo for the setting, more like a DATE. How long were you 1:1?

What the heck is going on with you? Don't you care how you are perceived? Why are you not being straightforward with DH? I suspect it's because you want the cozy chats and confiding to continue on some level. I would be shocked if 2 parents, 1 divorcing, were displaying that kind of rapport at a team travel event and would wonder about hooking up. How does that not concern you? [/quote]
