Update on the state of play:

She's still talking, we went to the theater and had a great time, just being friends again. We're going again next month, if her new guy doesn't book her diary up in advance for her (something she used to bitch at me for doing, but hey, I'm not bitter...)

It's pretty hard trying not to want to jump her every opportunity (we were both of us VERY physical) but it'll sort. At least there's still a freindship which is more than I can say for Ant.

He's started to badmouth me to everyone we knew (we've been best buddys like forEVER, so we know a lot of the same people), has turned into a real arrogant little shit. Remember he accused me of screwing his girl when it was him cheating? Well he's cheating on the both of them now, old and new. His girl still speaks to me even though he told her I was a lying bastard and she shouldn't believe a word I said. He even said I was sending anonymous letters to her! She's really devastated by his behaviour, because she believed him when he said he wasn't cheating. She found out the hard way though. She's completely blown apart by it all, and says he really thinks he's the innocent one and has been all his life. She's getting better now that she knows the truth, a case where 'your better off without him' really IS the right thing to say. And no, there isn't anything there, we aren't going to be an item, although I think she's a lovely person.

Any advice on this one guys??
