i'd have to say yes you are :(
this happened to me a while ago with my most recent ex bf.
id say you do your best to get over him and move on. because if your like me and stay as the backup girl, it NEVER ends up good for you...
hes just going to use you when she decides she doesnt want him, like he decided to break up with you.
dont let him treat you like that. you dont deserve it.
hope i helped :(

hiyah, you obviously had a good relationship before now and he wants to carry on without cutting you off completely its really unfair and it can mess you up so i think you should be the stronger person and let this one go. you dont have anything left together so theres no need to hang on to the past, its such a harsh lesson to learn and god it hurts but you can and will do better. dont be anybodys second best thats degrading as a person and will eat away at you constanly. its not something you need in your life and you no longer have to put up with it, so dont!
best of luck :) x

Yep sounds like he wants to keep you onside so he can come running back if it all goes wrong with his new girl.
Tell him that he broke up with you so he doesn't get to speak to you.
He's an idiot for leaving you and you deserve better treatment.
Good Luck!! xx
