At first I was going to reject this question or suggest you try another, possibly younger advisor. Then I thought I might have an answer to your question.
We all have people we would like to avoid for any number of reason. Depending on activities, such as social, school, work or church we may not be able to avoid this person altogether. There is also other people in our lives who may also be friends with this person.
When contact with this person is unavoidable: by this I mean you will be attending the same event. When this happens avoid contact with this person; do not make eye contact, do not wave at them. If they come up to you be cordial and excuse yourself as soon as possible. If this person is standing with a group of mutual friends find another group to mingle with.
If this is a planned dinner event, hopefully the event planner is aware of position and not seat you two together. If this does happen be cordial, do not try and ruin the event for others. If the other person takes a position of hostility you be the adult and either find another table, as a general rule there will be some no shows and an open seat can be found, or leave the party early.
It is always best to take the moral high road in these situations. If the other person wants to be childish let them. Your friends will see who is the adult and who is the child and respect you for being the adult.
Most importantly you should be cordial to this person. Do not let them believe you want them back in your life. If necessary tell them you are being cordial only so as not to ruin the even for others and would appreciate they do as well and to please leave you alone.
