I think it is entirely inappropriate to say this in front of a child, but not surprising from the type of women who go off with men in MLC [or vice versa] It shows a lack of awareness of the feelings of others, or the realisation that a young child takes in a lot. Or perhaps she hoped it would get back to you?
One never knows, but 2013 is a long way off, and it may be fantasy or it may have been in response to someone saying to OW - 'Are you ever going to get married then?' and her simply saying something to fend it off. Honestly who knows?
Having said that I would agree, that hard as it is, take the focus off your XH. If he ever comes out of this you will know. And in the meantime continue to live your own life with grace and dignity, as you do already.
