My ex boyfriend and I broke up due to a misunderstanding and in one day he decided to move on to another girl, someone I used to be friends with. He also knows that I didn't like her very much. When we were together, and even from before, he wasn't a really public person, when it came to facebook, etc. Now I know those aren't important things to make public in a relationship but it does help to an extent. When he went out with me, he took forever to change his relationship status until he changed it on my computer right next to me. He also didn't like going to clubs very much either. Now that he's with this new chick, he immediately uploads AND defaults two new ones at a club, like as soon as he took them. He barely ever changed his default to a picture with him and I. Granted we never really took any together because none of us had camera phones while together, but even the times we were, he never brought up the idea to. And it seems like he's the one pushing for it. Anyway, most people tell me she's his rebound chick, when me and him have been together on and off for like two years. I was the girl he got the closest to, since his ex before me. When I tried to explain to him the situation, he said that he didn't want to hear it and he had already made up his mind. I backed down because there was no use putting up a fight (they were already close).
Another thing, part of the reason why this whole thing occured was because I might be moving before this year is out. Neither of us want a long distance relationship. And I knew if i moved, we would have to end it. So, part of me feels like this happened for the best, assuming I do end up moving.
But what do you guys think about his new relationship. People say that even though she's his rebound, he'll eventually fall hard for her (he probably already did). And how should I be feeling about this?
The hardest part of breaking up - is you don't get to know whats going on in his head anymore.
We could all sit around here and take wild guesses and throw nasty labels at him and this new girl. We could psychoanalyze the whole thing... but why?
This new relationship could be rebound, he also might be really into this girl and trying to fix things he felt were mistakes in his past relationship (with you).
You'll never know.
As for how you should be feeling...
Feel however you feel. You get to be angry and annoyed and frustrated and jealous and that is all perfectly okay. Don't DO anything nasty or cruel, but feel what you feel and be honest with yourself about it. That's the best way to process it, and to take care of yourself.

The fact that he moved on to her straight away doesnt look too good. It kind of looks like she may have been lurking there in the backround all along...if you get my drift....:/ [ soph0900's advice column | Ask soph0900 A Question ]
