[4_2_it]

Asking a guy if it's cool to bang his ex-GF? WTF??? Grow some stones and do what you want. She is not his property and you aren't stealing her from him. It sounds like this chick has some baggage, but asking Bill's permission is idiotic.

Also, as soon as Bill tells Veronica you asked for his permission to bang her (which will about 3.4 seconds after you leave the room), she will decide it's not a good idea to see you.
