There's only one version of bridge. The "different versions" are different scoring systems and only matter in competitive/tournament play. For casual play use Rubber scoring. http://www.acbl.org/learn/scoreRubber.html
Play minibridge. It removes the bidding aspect of bridge so you can focus on the card play. http://www.acbl.org/documentLibrary/teachers/MiniBridge.pdf
Don't be intimidated by the bidding. Learning to bid game correctly takes some effort but not that much. The fancy bidding stuff is for when partnerships are interested in slam bidding. Most hands are played in a partscore or game contract. Hands that can play in slam are rare so being ignorant of the fancy slam bidding doesn't matter much. For learning bidding I recommend http://www.amazon.com/The-Club-Series-Introduction-Bidding/dp/0943855004/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1368195844&sr=8-1&keywords=club+series If you can find an older edition for less take it.
This is a great place to play online. http://www.bridgebase.com/
If you are in the US look for a local ACBL club to join/visit.
