[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We were friends with another couple through our kids, we each have three kids the same age and go to the same camp.

The mom is definitely a mean girl but also very fake, over the winter I reached out to her a few times and didn’t hear back, which I assumed was just Covid insanity related. Turns out she and her husband are totally fading us, her DH avoids us and will barely say hello, she says hi but also we’ve heard from others that she’s trash talking us.

Today we were at an event for the kids and she and her friends were huddled in a corner and it was clear they were talking about us. 
Also another mom had confirmed this last month.

We’ve no idea why they’re being like this, though they have a bunch of issues and so it’s also not a surprise, it’s a bit of a relief actually because she’s a drama queen. But it’s hard to know how to act at camp, especially as they’ve brought other moms into it. Also it makes me sad as all the parents socialize with the kids so we can tell our kids are being excluded from stuff.

when you see them in the future, glance at that momentarily but then turn and start talking to someone else or walk away to do something
don't try and exchange greetings
don't ask others about them or what they are doing
if anyone every says anything about you ignoring them feign surprise and say something phony like oh no! I just didn't see them/had so much on my mind/was so intent on doing x/ whatever 
when you stop trying to engage they will suddenly become much more interested in you
