Mates are supposed to be mates, right?

What happened to bros before hoes?

feminism has happened and more and more men started acting like women..... :dry:

[bond_yzf]

a man knows what he is doing. "it just happened" is what you would hear from a woman.

you need to sort out your mates.

You need to sort your attitude

[cocker]

let them get on with it. move on

[steve_h80]

Let it go and move on.
Sometimes there just is no fixing it.

In my opinion, your mate is a back stabbing c**t, it was probably his plan all along and helped you to ease his guilt a bit.
In the long term you'll thank him as it meant you got shot of her earlier, if it hadn't happened now it would've happened later on.

Move on, don't look back (thumbs)

your relationship is finished with the women as I understand it so what's the problem ?

If he is happy good for him but the fact he wasn't honest with you is more interesting as I see it, walk away. If someone cannot not be straight with you why do you want them in your life. People usually serve their own best interests

of course the women could be sticking the knife in as well

Walk away forget them life's to short, and welcome to the "Billy no mate club" (thumbs) there is a lot more patrons in the club than you think

cheers Spud

I don't often post personal stuff on forums, but it seems my list of "mates" is running thin, so need somewhere to vent some anger etc.

Since splitting up with my ex last October, one of my mates has stepped up and really helped me through a very rough patch. It was my fault the relationship ended and I know this, I told him everything and how I felt about it, and that I even still have feelings fr the girl now. I considered him to be a very good mate, and thought he considered me to be the same.

It came to my attention tonight, after spotting my ex in his friends list on Facebook (I had previously told him not to talk to her after she told me he was trying to flirt with her on a dating website last month to which he agreed) that he has been seeing her behind my back since then, even though we have had nights out on the lash together etc. He confessed he has been seeing her, "it just happened" he said. I said this was bang out of order (it's bro code, is it not?).

Anyway, I confronted him and told him he should have at least came to me first, as a mate, but he couldn't. He told me had been dating someone recently but we hadn't spoke in detail about it. It turns out he is even willing to lose me as a mate over it, he said he even considered that could be a possible outcome if I found out.

Am I in the wrong? Is he in the wrong?

What a terrible end to the weekend.

Are you serious? This is a f..king Adventure bike forum! Get a grip man.
