how to deal with the ex moving on...

what is wrong with me...i broke up with my ex over a year ago...moved to another city and cut off communication...when i heard from a mutual friend last week that he had moved in with his girlfriend i was so jealous....i have not found anyone significant yet and i think that is what i was jealous about...like he found someone first.

is this a normal feeling...he was my first love..we were together over 6 years and i needed to get away because of his immature behavior, lack of committment and drug use...sounds like a great guy ...right?

maybe i am just lonely and only remembering the good times....when i saw him at xmas he told me that this new girl would never measure up to me and he still thought we would end up together..i told him that i did not think so...

he has only been dating her about four months...but he lost his job, lost his apt and had to move in with his parents...so i think he is using her ...like he uses everyone...so why do i care....

our lives are so different....he dropped out of college and holds a minimum wage job and that is probably all he will ever do....i am a college graduate with a great job in a wonderful city and lots of friends with my same interests....so sad because at one time we were on the same path...

i don't like how it made me feel when i heard the news...does this mean i am not "over him" or is it something else.....thanks for any advice or input any of you have.

loves
