There are lines you don't cross, sisters, mums, aunts and exes are all out unless you've asked permission first. Standard shiznit really.
Agreed, I recall a couple of years back, my best mate pointedly said to me to stay away and not contact his ex. This is a girl I had known for a number of years and also regarded as a friend in her own right, but you do respect that code. Anything else I am afraid is completely unacceptable.
I actually gave another mate of mine a well paid job a few years back when he was sacked by his family, he started going out with my ex-wife after we had split but before we divorced. Did I have a problem with this? Yes I thought it was sneaky, snidey and vindictive. When your kids are involved, it makes polite conversation almost impossible.
They have now split up and they have both tried to make amends and re-build relationships with me. Am I interested? Am I fuck? Do I have a problem? No but I certainly don't want to socialise with them. Call me immature if you like.
My point with regards to the pint still stands, would you want to drink with your best mate if he was present with your ex partner? Me no

I'm with you.
There's shit loads of women in the world, no need to be sniffing round mates exes.
As for your question, no way would I want a drink with my ex and my mate if they were together. No way on earth.

As I say Quinny don't think many people are putting themselves in Bridge's position, seeing the ex out with another fella, so what, but I cant believe anyone would accept your best mate doing the same thing. However playing for England is a fantastic honour, as is sitting on the bench.
Me? I would have stayed with the squad, and before someone says what a waste of time, we will be quarter finalists at best, doesn't matter, makes England a bit like City then.
Couldn't think of anything better than to be involved in a World Cup.
n.
Have you ever been through a bad split? Fuck me mate i couldn't eat ,sleep,stress worry and that didn't involve a so called friend either. Just because someone plays international football doesn't mean it will hurt him less. It can be a killer and mine didn't spend a week on the front page of every paper in the land.Cully said:All this shite over what is basically a slag.
Terry is a twat for what he did to his wife and kids but nowt to do with us.
This is England ffs Mr Bridge, grow up and show some fight on and off the pitch.
Well said.BooksReject said:I think it's a brave move on his part. Imagine him being in South Africa in a few months, whilst its all still raw, not just playing football, but the free time too. It would be a split camp, with Terry hang ons, and Bridge supporters (quite a few I would imagine) divided. Just can't have that during a World Cup campaign, and Bridgey knows it.
How hard has it been for him to make that decision? Having to miss a World Cup because of that twat Terry.
I'm with Bridge. The wronged man, and a blue. He needs applauding, not castigating.
