Re: Is this a reasonable ask?
YES.
The fact she call them friends rather then co-workers etc. shows she lives in lala land a little.
You don’t want mother of children living in lala land do you?
That how its going to be done.
Never ever… ever.. respond to

or
“ getting married or trying to get married” etc.
Give pause… and speak about some thing else.
