it's understandable but without knowing a full story and not really knowing you, that girl or your best mate it's difficult to really make a comment. i try and look at the bigger picture and see everyone's point of view. but, taking your side, since i know you on interference, then yeah that would suck big time if he's being with a girl that's aparently your nemesis. If she's the big cow you say she is (i'm just sitting on the fence) then he'll discover that and i'm sure the apologese will come your way when he realises your friendship is more important. I get it often, as most people do, not liking my friend's partner but i just let them get on with it....i don't want to cause any friction between myself and my friend and lose the friendship because really i'm trying to protect them. you know, people do get blinded by love and friendships tend to get blurry. i hear what your saying about her being nasty and stuff but if he's not going to listen to you and it's as bad as you say i'd really question the friendship to start with. i dunno, random mumblings from me. sorry about your news, we'll cheer you up.
