How to Know if Your Ex-Boyfriend Is Going Out With a New Girl to Make You Mad
Breakups are always difficult, whether you and your ex-boyfriend parted on friendly terms or if some dramatic event prompted the breakup. It can often be hard to let go and to forget about your ex, especially if he broke up with you or if he began dating someone else soon after the relationship ended. He could be dating someone new for a variety of reasons, but if the relationship is truly over, you should work to control your feelings about it.

1
Watch for signs that your ex-boyfriend is trying to needle you with his new relationship. For example, if he talks to you about her frequently, comes to your place of business with her or otherwise flaunts the relationship, he could be trying to hurt you with it.

2
Do not react to the evidence of his new relationship. Even if it hurts you, keep those feelings to yourself when you are around him. Talk to a friend or a family member about how you are feeling, but avoid venting to him, crying on his shoulder or getting angry about it in front of him. The best reaction is to act as though you do not care.

Distance yourself from your ex-boyfriend and his new girlfriend. Do not continue talking with him, emailing or text messaging him. The relationship is over and one of the best ways to move on is to cut off contact with him as much as you can. If you work together or go to school together, be civil, but not overly friendly.

Avoid interacting with the new girlfriend. Do not call or email her or try to find out more about her. You are unlikely to find anything that will make you feel better and obsessing will only make things worse.
