I talked to my ex boyfriend last night. He was telling me about his new girlfriend and how he is taking her to japan and jamacia and buys her things all the time. When we were together he did not do anything like that for me. He cheated on me terribly and he did not cheat on her. It just seems unfair that he does her so well and did me horribly.

sounds like empty boasting to me. If it is so important for him to tell you how much better he is treating her than he did you then there isnt much for you to be jealous of. He sounds like a vindictive prick. Something you can’t hide with money…unless the new girl isnt all that bright.
Do yourself a favor, try to let go of him and don’t talk to him.
Well. He is an Ex boyfriend for some reason or another. I don’t think it should mean anything to you what he does with his life now. I mean maybe has has something with her that he didn’t have with you?
I know I am very happy in the relationship I have now and wouldn’t dare waste my time telling ex’s how well off I am. If I really wasn’t and our relationship was going south then I might want I contact an ex but based on your question and your feelings I’d say he knows he’s got you like putty in his hands and he’s not doing well in his relationship.
My advice to you? Look up the name Gloria Gaynor and chant the words of her most popular song.

He’s your ex. He cheated on you. Why are you still talking to him?
I will echo the others’ sentiment here and add that he’s exhibiting the symptoms of a narcissist and control freak.
Think about that and where you are right now (head-wise)...he wouldn’t be pushing your buttons if there were none to be pressed (hope that makes sense). Learn from the past or you’ll be doomed to repeat it.
We just started talking again after almost 2 years. We left things on a terrible note in 2006 and he was doing horrible (ie. Kicked out of school, broke, and personal issues) I just wanted to make sure that he was better and back on his feet. I see that our conversation we had last night turned into something that it wasnt suppose to be. I know for a fact that our time is over and done with i just don’t wanna hear about how happy he is with his rebound girl that happens to look just like me! LOL. Imma just cut out conversations down to almost nothing because he might start getting the wrong idea about things.
If it’s been 2 years, I would hardly think of his girlfriend as a rebound. Your relationship with him is over. If you don’t think you can handle talking to him as friends, then cut ties with him completely. Maybe he told you those things because he wanted you to know he is doing better in his life, and nothing more.
I said she was a rebound because 2weeks after we broke up in 06 he starts dating her. And I hope that he is telling me all that stuff to let me know he is ok and not just to brag or make me feel bad.
your ex-bf sounds like a prick.
It’s difficult to listen to someone you once loved tell you about the person they now love, and be happy about it. I am very close to my wasband, and I got a lump in my throat when I found out that the engagement ring he bought for his new love cost 5 times what mine did. But I got past it, and she and I actually became good friends. I called her my wife-in law! They are no longer together. Just tell him you are happy he is doing well, and take it from there. It’s not easy being friends after a break up, but it can be done.
