My husband and I took our son to this Easter egg hunt things weekend and while in line for face paint this lady randomly starts talking to my husband about her son. Apparently our sons are about the same age. She then proceeded to tell him that her baby daddy left her recently. (She had a newborn with her) I thought it was strange to tell a stranger that but ok. When we were almost done I see her pull out her phone and was asking him if he wanted to get together for play dates with the kids! Although neither of our boys acknowledged each other the entire time. he goes ahead and gives her MY number to be nice and gives her BOTH our names when she asked for his name…. He didnt mention it was my number. He keeps telling me I need to find “mom friends” and after we walked away he’s like you should respond if she texts. A little while later she texts great to meet YOU hopefully we can have a play date soon… Does anyone find this strange? Would you text her back? She didn’t seem interested in talking to me at all.
I thought maybe she just likes to talk and my husband will talk to anyone, but to ask for his number??

Sounds like she was hitting on your husband. I wouldn’t respond.
Props to your husband. She seems shady as fuuuuuuck.
I would block her. Doesn’t sound right.
She didn’t ask for his number to acquire new “mom friends”. Pretty sure she wants to acquire your husband.
It’s hard to say more without knowing more of the context. Like did you make an effort to engage with her at all? She might just be going through a bad time and he was an easy target, but it’s impossible to say exactly what she’ll target him for.
Edited to add: I would definitely block her number. And ask him not to give it out in the future.
This is actually a hilarious play by your husband. I would 100% respond and be like ‘oh this is so and sos wife. Hope your son had fun today!’
What’s the question here?
She wants to fuck him.
Your husband knew what she wanted.
He very much avoided that by giving her YOUR number and not his.
What are you confused by OP?
Respect to your husband by giving her your number!
Now, I’m not saying trust the woman. By any means. But I know people like this who are just trauma dumpers looking for a friend. The genders make it sus for sure, and trauma dumping on your husband isn’t a good look. And the number acquisition….
Yeah no. I’m on board with everyone else. She’s trying to acquire him. 😂
Seems to me it was some woman who, for whatever reason, assumed your husband was single and hit on him. Doesn’t seem like anything nefarious unless she KNEW he was married. It’s kinda cute your husband didn’t realize he was getting hit on though!
I think its bizarre and her motives were nefarious. Have you discussed it with your husband? I would and I would tell him that while you appreciated, not giving out his number, you prefer to navigate your own Mom friends path going forward.
