It was totally awkward but i was on the phone i glanced over at him and his face was real stiff he looked like he was idk it was just the weirdest thing he didnt look mad he just looked nervous.Anyway so the light changed and he like went out of his way to speed up. I noticed he turned into his new girlfriends school i was going to pick her up but if i saw him out and about like i did today im capable of smiling and waving but that was impossible because as far as i know he didnt even look at me.He usually will avoid eye contact and stiffen up and just not act very casual. But im fine, and can say hello and go about my day.Its weird because you think since he has a new girlfriend he would be able to do act casual whenever he sees me and since im the one who doesnt havent a new boyfriend (and im totally happy with that) shouldnt i be the one who isnt able to say hello and stiffen up? But i dont, he does.So is their an explanation for this? Why cant he just act okay and wave and smile and all that just like you would if you saw a friend instead he gets real tense and avoids me and like i said sped up fast. So whats his deal? He acts so over me but then when he sees me he becomes nervous or something any ideas?

Sooo i dont get it why would he purposely avoid eye contact and speed up and things like that if hes over me? Wouldn't he just be able to act casual? Not that i want him back its just odd to me and wondering why he would act so awkward.

He told me he no longer wanted to know me but we see each other every week where we train for sports. I catch him looking from time to time but I wonder the same thing about why is he looking at me when he has moved on to his gf/baby mama? He's only fooling himself is what I think.

He proably feels a little uncomfortable around you after you had a relationship with him. Maybe feels weird seeing you after having this relatioship with you.

Yep. He finds it awkward seeing you. That's all there is to it. He just finds it awkward seeing his ex.
