    Yeah dude unless you still got a flame burning for her your S.O.L, your bud does not owe ya squat seeing as how you are married and have a life of your own that ship has sailed so let it go and move on.

    I get why it may bother you a bit, however it isn't breaking any unwritten bro code. If any of that were more recent, or you were still hurting over her (which btw, thank the fates you aren't) than it's no big deal.

    No he doesn't need your opinion, and yes your wife should be pissed that you care about giving permission for someone to see another woman.

    Your buddy probably doesn't think anything of it. How could he know you're still carrying around unresolved feelings?
    The fact that you're concerned about it implies that you still have some feelings. Your wife should be concerned.

    Ido speak to him regularly but havent spoken to her in ages. And I don't care just at least could have called and said dude I hooked up with your old girl. I mean I absolutely hope both of them hit it off.

    I don't know why he wouldn't have mentioned having a girl in his life, let alone your ex. I think, my female perspective, is that he should have mentioned it, not for permission, but just to clear the air. If its no big deal, why hasn't he told you? Unless of course, he never talks about his girlfriends.
    As for your wife's feelings, you can't blame her for being hurt any more than she can blame you for feeling a little stung that your buddy hAs hooked up with your ex. just my opinion.

    Not a man, but I just have to say, I think the "Bro code" is overrated. I mean, as a grown person, I can decide who I want to date, needing that person to ask someone who I no longer have a relationship with for persmission just seems silly.

    Dude...1st off....I'd be pissed off that she didn't consult you before she got married the 1st time. I mean c'mon...she was your HS semi-serious girlfriend. She should at least respect you enough for that.

    I still have my Valentine from when we were in the 4th grade consult me before she goes out on dates today. She did give me a Garfield Valentine's Card and a candy heart that said "I'm Yours" and all. A contract is a contract!

    THIS

    I know you asked for guys to answer but seriously, he doesn't need to ask you, you're a married man now and your wife is upset because you care enough to think you should be asked.

    Yeah THIS

    If your married it shouldnt matter how much time has passed. Clearly your clinging to something....

    Another THIS... LOL.

    your buddy does not need your permission.
    The only reason your wife should be upset is because you are even asking this.
    total no brainer here

    No bro code was broken since this was a while back plus your married. as for your wife being upset i see her side since why would you get upset about it unless you still have a thing for your ex from high school
