Now i find out he's dating one of my friends! I don't know what to do. I don't understand him. Is he doing this to make me jealous? and Why would he keep having ago at me when i haven't done anything?

 Your boyfriend I think is jealous. You were in a relationship with him, all though you broke up and he agreed to move on, there's two sets of emotions, not just one. You were the one who was ready to make a change, it doesn't necessarily mean that he has to share your feelings or that it's as easy for him to move on as it has been for you.
I wouldn't let him bother you when he's fussy. He'll begin loosing this behavior as the relationship you had with him get more distant.

He's acting macho. Ignore him. Avoid him. Don't respond to him.

 The opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference. Hate/love require strong emotion. He's flipped his feelings into, for lack of a better term, the dark side. Once he no longer has feelings for you, he'll be indifferent and there won't be a problem.
In the mean time, you need to be indifferent to him. Don't let him get a rise out of you. Ignore him. He means nothing now. You don't want to be arguing with him all the time when you can be spending time with your new man.
As for dating your gf, maybe she likes him. Maybe he likes her. Maybe it has nothing to do with you. Even if that's not true, act like it is. The last thing your new guy is going to want to see is you acting jealous over your ex. Again, ignore him.
Good luck.
