Question:  My ex-wife and I have been separated for six months. We broke up after I caught her having countless affairs. She introduced her new boyfriend to our children about a week after we separated. They've been dating now for six months but I only recently met him. I shook hands with him and introduced myself. My ex seemed to not like the fact that I was nice to him and kept rolling her eyes and giving me rude looks. She kept hinting for me to leave, and showing him signs of aggravation. I'm concerned about what people are around my children since her choice of friends in the past hasn't been the best. Was I wrong to introduce myself to her boyfriend?

Answers:

Mr. Know: Of course you were not wrong to introduce yourself. You should meet anyone who is going to have influence on your

children. If your ex doesn't like it, too bad. So sad.

Ms. Mystery: You are being a bigger person than she is, and you were doing right to introduce yourself to her boyfriend. Your kids are the most important thing here. You should know her new boyfriend if your kids do. Your ex needs to grow up and put the kids first too. I hope you and whoever she ends up with can become friends. Her actions are only making her look bad to her boyfriend.
