O/T Worried....Should I be?

I am friends with my EX's GF. I think. We get along real well we text a lot about issues unrelated to EX. We both have daughters around the same age who are great together. My EX is pretty up there in the shithead category. He is not the worst but he's no where near the best. I invited GF and her daughter to come to an event with me and my daughter. It turns out her daughter is going to be on vacation with her dad and can't come. I figured that was that but then GF made the comment that she was still coming. I have never done anything with just GF. It's normally everyone together minus EX cuz he sucks. I feel weird. I like this girl as a friend and we have helped each other out a lot. I strive to be a great BM. If this is working, is it a problem? I'm honestly expecting Ex and GF to break up. It's just his MO. Idk what I'm asking. I'm just worried about being around GF with her daughter not around.

Second issue- My divorce papers state that my ex-DH is responsible for all transportation and costs. His GF drops off daughter with her dad about five minutes from my home. She has offered the past month to pick up my daughter and bring her back and forth since she's already there. My ex-dh is always working and never there during drop offs. I don't mind this but I feel guilty. Should I be offering her gas money? It's about an hours drive there and back. Her custody papers say that she is responsible for transportation so she has to do it no matter what. I know it's none of my business if ex-DH is giving her gas money. I'd rather not shell out extra money because I get almost nothing for child support and he doesn't carry insurance like he's supposed to. But I still feel guilty.....

I think let sleeping dogs lie on the pick-up/drop off. If she mention it to you, then tell her to ask your ex for it isnce he should be responsible, if not, don't worry about it.

Sounds like you're the kind of BM I'd love to have!

Lol I try my best. Her daughter is the same age but a bit smaller than my daughter and I pass along all her nice clothes and stuff. I doubt the woman's had to buy clothes for the past year. She hasn't mentioned anything but I just feel bad. We end up talking and gossiping for about an hour when we do meet up and catching dinner so I guess it's ok.
