WAW says that I need to not be friends with people I meet through her, after she WA'd That the ones I hung out with when I was with her and kids are generally off limits, even if they pursue me friendship. She says to be friendly, but dont encourage the friendship.

Can someone tell me more about this separate life / separate friend issue?

She wants space, and I have been giving it to her. And we have been doing well. But then I go and be friendly to my kids' friends! Bad idea! What was I thinking? Then they FB friend me. So I will respect her and not pursue any conversations with them.
I am just trying to understand.

thanks
