From my side of this story - I would say that YOU hit a sore spot that still lives from within this lady, strong and fully active.... it sounds as though maybe she has not healed from the pain of them not having had children - even if at one time they agreed not to have children, therefore, she too took it hard - from her own inner personally wounds.
BTW - know that we cannot always please everyone all the time and that we are not always going to be aware of what might send another person running in fear.... trying to hide.
