burn one's bridges 

To leave all of your friends and acquaintances behind; to cause permanent damage in your relationships.

The idea is that there people who form bridges to your past. If you forget or insult them, you have burned all of your bridges to the past, and can never go back.
1) Even though you're quitting your job tomorrow, try not to burn one's bridges. You never know when you'll need help in the future.

2) There may be a conflict of interest if I work with both companies. Of course I don't want to burn one's bridges, so I should choose one company and let the other know that I can't work with them.

Bridgette by Bridgette_stout December 22, 2014
Extreamly beautiful,strong-willed and very independent. Some one who is really amazing. A very trustworthy friend and someone you want to know. She doesn't need a man and is perfectly capable of doing things on her own, but secretly longs for someone to sweep her off her feet and give her a fairytale ending.she is gorgeous and is nice to everyone. She makes the best out of everything.
Quite outspoken at times. Shes afraid to get close to anyone because she's been hurt too many times.

Cinderella Bride

Cinderella is a well-known classic folk tale embodying a myth-element of unjust oppression/triumphant and reward.
The word "cinderella" has, by analogy, come to mean one whose attributes are unrecognised, or one who unexpectedly achieves recognition or success after a period of obscurity and neglect.

A Cinderella Bride is a woman who is unrecognizable on her wedding day because of her new found beauty. Usually the bride has used her wedding date as motivation to lose weight and dropped many pounds. She splurges on a beautiful dress that she would otherwise never have put on because she prefers to wear sweats and t-shirts. She has her hair uncharacteristically styled at a chic salon and her make-up done by an artist.

Like Cinderella, when the ball is over, she goes back to being plain and mundane. But, she does have some nice pictures.
"Andrea was a Cinderella Bride. She dropped like 50 lbs, put on some make-up for the first time and looked great in her wedding dress."

Bridgend Athletic

A really mediocre rugby team, based in Bridgend (south wales), who are famous for having the attitude that each player in all their age groups is god's gift. It's this awful way of thinking, as you would know if you knew them, that makes them "a cut above" in their own minds. In the event that they do lose a game or they clearly don't live up to their own ridiculous expectations, they are keen to blame; the ref being bad, "not playing their normal starting side", injuries, weather and (my personal favorite) a biased ref - as if any of these are acceptable. Among the other local rugby teams (and rugby teams as far as cardiff or swansea), there is a commonly used phrase "Athed".

Being Athed is when somebody or some player spends to long around people or players who convince them that said player is the best thing since sliced bread. In short, almost a brainwashing affect which changes the said player's attitudes more like the typical Bridgend Athletic attitudes. The process of "Athing" as it were, doesnt have to be done by supporters/players of Bridgend Athletic. It can be done to ANYONE by ANY TEAM. The same principle could apply to any other sport just as well.
Guy1: Bridgend Athletic players all have their heads up their own asses and dont like it shoved up em in a physical game.

Guy2: AGREED!

*Athing or being Athed*

Person1: Bob's been spending allot of time with those guys from ________ R.F.C lately don't you think?

Person2: Yeah i know right! he was saying the other day about how much better he reckoned was than Dai and how easily _______ R.F.C would beat Dai's team!

Person1: Well everybody kind of knows that Dai is better than Bob, even though Bob is also a good player. Most people who say or think otherwise are looking through rose tinted spectacles on Bob's behalf. He was a nice enough guy who just got on with it before, but now he's been made to think more of himself, being convinced he is better than Dai.

Person2: It's not fair to blame him though those guys down at _______ R.F.C have been Athing him for ages.

Person1: Yeah, he's been totally Athed.
