I don't think it strictly means that he doesn't want to be with you. Two factors you may want to consider is how long the two of them were together and how bad of a break-up it was for them. If your boyfriend was with this girl for a long period of time then I could understand him getting upset about the ex moving on even though he is with you now because the longer the relationship the more emotions and feelings went into the relationship and if it ended badly there may raw emotions there that your boyfriend doesn't appear to have gotten past. On the other hand if it was a mutual break-up I would be a little wary because if those feelings are still there and the ex breaks up with her new man he may go running back to her but I wouldn't worry about it just now because at least he was open enough to reveal to that he was upset about it and that he needed that time to think about it rather than just keeping it in the dark and taking it out on you.
