He hasn't changed. If he gets a kick out of flirting/picture exchanging with multiple girls then he's doing it because he gets an ego boost. If he's acting perfect suddenly, have you considered that you might just be lonely and are dropping your standards? Don't be an idiot, we don't change... however we do enjoy a challenge and can change temporarily just to see if we can get you back... even if we don't really want you. It gives us an ego boost and this is just what your ex is after in my opinion.
Best of luck :)

Honey, he's not going to change. He just know which buttons to push to get you to "momentarily" forgive him..Cut the contact, find a guy who is actually worthy.

If you and him do work out, I would consider looking on his computer to check if he's been flirting with other girls. That way, you will know what sort of person he is, and whether he was lying to you or not.
