     What defines an informal friendly relationship? I know what does not.

      Distrust over hearsay

      Disdainful attitudes

      Sticking the other for excess child support

      Spontaneous court action

      Vanity, self righteousness

      Suggestions of sexual impropriety with a daughter

     These are some of my reasons why I won't be normalizing things with my ex. Especially the last point.  I think the ex needs to check on the guys she keeps around my daughter long before she even brazenly made her vile suggestions.

      There are many more reasons including infidelity.

       My advice, don't EVER be friends with someone who does any of the above things to you.  Give them back the attitude they give you. What comes around goes around. Push back, don't ever let them think they are right. Mutual respect.
