Collaroy agony auntHi mate,

well you ended the relationship so you have to accept that your ex girlfriend is not going to put her life on hold for you. That may sound tough, but it is the reality of the situation. You chose to break up with her, what do you really expect her to do?

Now , I would suggest you don't go anywhere where she is going to be for a start. If you see her out, go somewhere else, its pretty simple. In any event pretty soon you will get over it, it is always difficult when you break up with someone to see them being amorous with another person. But it happens to the best of us - you will find a way to deal with it, just dont do anything stupid like pick a fight or anything.

good luck

So you sort of ended a relationship with her and you sort of took a break? So the question is, are you two together or not? If you decided to end things with her, you would have to expect that she's going to move on. If it's really soon after the breakup it's probably just for rebound purposes--in other words: she cares about you still, but it's easier for HER to move on with her life. If you're jealous, then you're jealous. It's something that is hard to control. But you chose to end the relationship, so I would suggest coming to terms with the fact that you two are no longer a couple and she has the right to talk to other guys. If you didn't want her to, then you shouldn't have broken up with her.
