I agree. She's the past, and you're his future. He can be friends with her, but friendships are supposed to be different with your ex. It means being civil and possibly seeing each other once or twice a year to say hi. It doesn't sound like he's moved on from her, and you're getting caught in the middle. You should find someone else, without emotional baggage...

tell how it is.
