She’s not asking me about my personal life. She’s trying to get me to do stuff I don’t want to.
She is my ex’s landlord. We’re separated, not divorced. He’s an alcoholic mess who is also abusing drugs. Basically, she wants me to have him over more and keep him busy, so he’ll be less likely to drink.
She stopped by my house today (again) and made some suggestions about things I could do with him.
The fact that she's his landlord says a lot about her likely motive.
My guess is that she is considering evicting him, but wishes she didn't have to do that, and is hoping you'll help to put him on the straight and narrow so she doesn't have to evict him.
You don't need to follow her suggestions, but perhaps it might be a good idea for you to let your ex know that she's been expressing her concerns to you, and hence that you suspect he might be in danger of being evicted soon (although she didn't come out and say so).
