    Why does it matter?  You are now in a different relationship, and people know about the way partners act after a breakup, so you don't need to worry about it as long as you haven't done anything wrong.  The more you think about this, the more it will affect your current relationship.

      In my experience he thought you would wait for him to come back  now he feels threatened that you didnt want anything to do with him,, when he thought he might be able to get you back he want to be friendly now he knows he cant have you

      I think he wanted to break up with you, and after you get that message, you go and find a new bf is normal like everybodyelse. And he was wrong to bother you again. It's not like that he want you to wait for him to come back will work (or happen in a normal sense.)

        You need to cut off contact with this ex. The idea that "We can be friends" is largely a myth. How would you feel if the guy you are dating wanted to meet for drinks with an old girlfriend? Or was calling to tell her about his day? Your ex is an ex for a reason...It didn't work! The fact that he is acting like a jerk now that you've met someone, says one thing, he's a jerk. You need time AND space for the past to become history. Also, the two of you are not the only people involved. Whether you like it or not, the girl he is seeing is a person with feelings and does not deserve this disrespect from either of you. The same goes for the guy you are seeing.

        I agree that he is acting like a jerk and both of your new boyfriends/girlfriends derserve more respect as do you, but I think that it is completely immature and stupid to treat exes as enemies. Sure things didn't work out as a couple, but you liked each other for some reason once upon a time. You can still be civil and even friendly if you are over him (and vice versa). You can have a boyfriend and friends. If your ex straightens up and is still nice, then what's so wrong with staying friends?

        First of all i think that the 2 of you are doing the same thing,because if your done with someone your done and there is no need to tell him that you are in another realationship,also there is no need to call him . Seems to me that you want something out of telling him that you have someone else,because he does

          It all has to do with jealousy. He's jealous that you probably have someone better than him and wants to make you feel bad for him breaking up with you and wants you to feel like the whole break up was all your fault. Apparently it's his loss. If you did find someone better don't pay attention to him anymore. But if you're not over him, you never will get over him. It's just a trap. So if you're happy with the guy you are with now. Why should it matter if you're wanting to talk to your ex? Move on with your life and be happy don't go back to the past. I learned that the hard way but I moved on and im very happy right now.

          I know how you feeel i was exactly in the same situation before. He was trying to make you jelous and wasnt expecting you to move on. So he thought that making you jelous woould make him feel like confident and think that he was the only one for you. Once you got a boyfriend you basically pissed him off because he wasnt expecting your move thats just a typicall guy for you.

            He is upset.  By you dating another man it leaves him without any options if his new relationship doesn't work out so why should he still be nice to you.  If he was only trying to make you jealous he wouldn't have broken up with you he would have just started talking to other females in front of you.

            I think at first , he was hoping that dating another girl would make you realize what your missing, but i think when he found out that you were dating yourself, he probably thought that you moved on and got even angrier so he's taking it out on

            Yes, he is trying to make you jealous. He probably feels like it is okay for him to go out and be with another girl because your with another guy. But deep down you feel like you want to be with him and he feels the same. If he's acting like this he is trying to get your attention and bring up the subject with him so he knows you care. Don't let him get to you. If he wants to act this way stop talking to him in the end you make yourself happy and, if your happy with your boyfriend forget about this other guy because later your new guy will get jealous of the old guy. It's another world in these guys heads. Be strong.

              Most likely, this guy still has feelings for you and is still uncomfortable seeing you with someone else. He isn't trying to make YOU jealous. He is the one that is jealous because he is insecure with you dating another man.

                I would have to say he still has feelings for you and the reality of a breakup isn't set in 100% till you see them with another person. If he doesnt let you move on with your life which you have let him do then he is just being an immature dick that doesnt understand the complexities of post- breakup relationships. I would say you should stay away from your Ex if you are truly over him and have moved on in life. Some people breakup and become friends one reason is because if they encounter them often and to avoid awkward feelings and another reason is to leave a little window open where you can slip right back into that persons life. If you are done with him ur done otherwise why would u 2 break up? Even though It doesnt make sense people do it all they time.

                  I think that he is trying to make you jealous. He is probably trying to make you jealous because he misses you and he thinks that if he tell you or show you that hes doing good with some one else then you will miss him like he miss you but he would not tell you unless you ask him about it or he probably would not because hes afraid to tell you how he feel............

                  I went through this, cut him off and reject him when he asks for you back. Because he deserves it. Still be there for him like a friend would, because its shows that you cared about him and always will, but dont let him know hes getting to you, i think its best you make him jealous and let time run its course. Live your life girl, do what you want.

                  The boy that did that to me came back after 3 years. Yeh, it was a long wait, but here in a few months you probley wont think about him all that much, maybe here and there if you really love him, but you'll have all kinds of other stuff to keep your mind off of him.
                  You know what they say if you love em let em go, if it was meant to be they will return.

                    You should move on with your life and let him be a jerk on his own.if he is going out with someone tell her what a jerk he is (evidence would help e.g texts,emails,letters) anything that could prove to her what a jerk he is. Get on with your life and let him go.don't let him get to as this could ruin your relationship with your current boyfriend.

                    First of all do you have children with this man? If not why the heck worry about it I don't want to sound rude but there is apparently a reason you are not together any more and I am sorry but some people are just to darn immature I can not label a man or a woman being this way cause we all do it to some degree. My little story is I was with my husband for 8 years and now we are getting divorced he has someone I have someone my case I have to put up with him cause of our kids and when they are with him and I ask what they are doing he says oh they are with "C" thinking it will make me jealous or mad, but the thing is I left him for cheating with this girl and for that he wants to try to make my life a living hell even though he is the one who cheated but it doesn't matter to me he made his decisions he don't want me happy unless I was with him and he will keep trying til he gets tired of trying so don't respond to him in any manner what so ever he isn't worth it. Live your life for yourself and the new guy you are with if he makes you happy like mine makes me and my children happy then there shouldn't be anything else you should worry about laugh it off sometimes I know it may be hard but it will benefit you in the end. And he will continue to look like the butt he is making himself out to be.

                    Think about it..maybe you still love each other but you both think that it was a traumatic experience when you broke up.. It is a hindrance of getting back to relationship again.

                    He just want you to crave for him as he think he can have many girlfriends and you cannot have a friend other than him. If you people really don't like each other than you can ignore him, tell your boyfriend, tell your local police station. Pick whichever option suits your situation.

                    He's actually trying to get over you believe it or not, because he is obviously hurting inside......

                    It's called love hurt.
                    Not wanting to admit to his feelings and now he is nasty to  you to justify the hurt.
                    That's all it is and oh yes it hurts badly.

                    I think he'd rather felt something to regret in the relationship, or just playing drama on you. And I think at this moment you need to figure out what is his true feeling on yo, (of cause, if you still care about him.) and then give the judgement, whether you two can keep a new relationship. But I think in most cases he is not trustworthy, It can be depended on how he treated you after he knows... I mean, if he really care about you and felt for regret, he'll be gentle to you, and will say sorry....
                    This is what I think about it, and my advises.

                    I think he is but it is just my opinion, i have had this happen to a very good friend of mine and i talked to the guy and he told me that he was trying to make my friend jealous, so i think well maybe you should either talk to him or ignore the whole thing and move on with your life. Hope this helps!

                    He is not trying to make you jealous but wants to embarrass you for you to return to the relationship

                    He's jealous and he's not over you. However, it's not worth going back to that relationship. I mean if it didn't work out once, then why go back and try again when you could have the same outcome. I would be happy with your new guy and just ignore him because you wouldn't want go through another heart ache again. Just do whatever makes you happy and be strong. That's all that matters :D

                    No one can make you jealous...You are responsible for your own feelings.  Let him go, as I see you already have.  Why would you want to go back to him?  You bothy have moved on...I agree...Let It Go

                    You shouldn't really let it get to you !! Guys are weird in someways and in this case it sounds like you were his fall back just in case his girlfriend fell through just ignore what he says because you've started over so he needs to let you go!!

                    First of all, you shouldn't even think about why is he doing that to you because you are now happy with where you are right?? Obviously, this ex Bf of yours is just being selfish, he doesn't want you anymore but he doesn't want you to be happy with someone else either. He seems to be "lost" and doesn't know what and who he really likes. Don't waste your time on him, focus instead on your new guy and let this ex BF figure things out by himself. Don't even be surprised why he is being rude to you. Remember that he broke up with you already right?That should make you forget about him and whatever it is that he wants to do in his life is his choice, you've got nothing to do with it. So just simply IGNORE. ;p

                    He is doing it to ruin your relationship probably because he regrets dumping you...and wants you to be as sad as he is because he made the wrong choice in dumping you...but I wouldnt let change in mood bother you....You should be happy with the guy you have now and maybe unlike your ex the guy you have now will realize before its too late what a great thing he has while he has it.

                    Jealousy is a major factor in relationships that had breaking points, Honestly he probably does still like you making sure that he uses other girls to make you jealous and is just scared to come out and say "I still love you", If he is being mean to you it could be him flirting in a more meaner way ( which guys tend to do), to get him to stop simply tell him to stop treating you like that. You also say you have a new boy friend, that could also be why he's coming back, he sees that you have moved on and didn't want that, unlike other people I'm not going to say "leave him" or "loose contact" and im not saying that to be mean, you need to find how the two of you really feel, remember any relationship has to be equal and cant have one person loving the other person more. And if you love this new guy, and he loves his new girl, then y'all shouldn't have a problem and y'all should be able to move on.

                    Hope i helped and good luck

                    I think he might have thought he had a chance or something, because he seems angry like u done something wrong, and when a boy i liked got a girlfriend, but was flirting with me before, i just talked and hangout with him less, but he tried and made a effort not to loss contact.

                    Anyways you have a boyfriend now if you like him more forget about this guy if not do the right thing and don't use him (i'm not saying you are btw)
