I have to co parent with the asshole. I would love never have to deal with him again, but I have to. It's the only reason for me living where I do. To be a parent. Make sense?

That is what he does. It's interesting to watch history repeat itself. This time I'm not involved. Phew!

But you do seem very vested.

Not OP, but same other divorced woman. My friends can talk to my ex all day long for all I care, they can even suck his dirty dick.. He's not my problem, I'm not territorial. Why is in inappropriate? Is he off limits or something. I'm confused.

Realize you're not OP, but this sort of indifference seems very studied. If OP was genuinely unmoved by what happened, she wouldn't have posted.

I think she felt weird about it but I'm glad she told be. No biggie. She has my back.

Not OP, but huh? You think the OP in pining for him? As someone who is divorced ANYONE can have at my ex. I'm so happy to no longer be his wife. Anyone who know him and is stupid enough to fall for him deserves what they get. Mine can flirt away and swoon like a school girl. That is actually great for me. The more his attention is elsewhere the better.

Exactly. Definitely not pinning for him. I literally can't stand to be around him. I feel bad for his girlfriend. How he acted with my friend is what he does. He's a gigantic flirt but a dbag underneath. Maybe his gf is figuring that out. He already farms out his parenting duties to her. That's gotta suck. But she's 32 and found quite the catch in DC right? I think not.

Nah. I think it just randomly happened. We all live in the same neighborhood so it's plausible. I'm not worried about my friend. I just find it interesting that history is repeating itself. I guarantee if he had his gf with him, the scenario would not have happened

Sounds like your "friend" is enjoying twisting the knife.

She probably did. He's very very charming on the surface level. She said it was like a script where you meet a guy at the grocery store and he asks you out.

Did your friend enjoy his attention? Chatting for 20 min? Sounds like she enjoyed it. If she didn't she could have ended the conversation and been on her way.

Yup. If they are truly narcissistic, they never change.

Happily divorced woman here. Last night I had a game night with my daughter and my good friend (also a divorcee).

Apparently on her way to my place, she stopped at the grocery store for snacks etc etc.

Turns out my ex was there and talked to her. For 20 minutes. My friend told me that she felt he was flirting with her, very charming, bought cupcakes for game night, told her how sorry he was she had a nasty divorce etc etc. It was enough for her to think - where the hell is his girlfriend?

Yep - history repeating itself. I feel bad for his girlfriend. And I'm glad my friend told me. She knows that my good looking charming ex husband really is a narrassistic dbag capable of unbelievable bullshit. Best to steer clear.
