What should you do? Why do you feel you need to do anything? Did you break up him or visa versa or was it mutual? If you were hurt by the break up and your friend knew it then she isn't much of a friend to you after all and you are better off knowing this. As far as you "ex" goes...that's over and he can date whomever he pleases. What should you? You should get on with your life, make some new friends, start having fun, and live in the present not in the past.

Well he is your ex, so when you broke up he was then on the market again. its probably a bit insensitive of your friend to go dating your ex but it does happen. Are you just feeling there is a connection because he is with your friend and maybe you feel a tiny bit jealous ? or did you break up not entirely wanting to and want to get back with him ? Who did the breakig up ? did you decide to finish or did he ? If it was him then hes moving on and you should do the same. If its serious with your friend and your ex then you may have to just live with it. If its early days find out how into him she is and see if shes dating him because she can or because she wants to annoy you. If it was you that did the breaking up he may be dating her to make you jealous ? Have a chat with her, if she realises that it bothers you and shes not that into him she may decide to choose friendship over a guy. I suggest talking to her first and see whats what, but if hes on the market and shes wants to date him and he doesnt want to get back with you then its pretty much fair game im afraid. Dont go trying to split them up just because your not over him, see how she feels, she may not realise that your this cut up about and would maybe move aside if you two are meant to be together.
Take care.
