First let me apologize for this being so long.

I don't get it! My ex boyfriend told me to move on when he dumped me and I have, but whenever I get a boyfriend he always gets so mad!

We broke up the beginning of April (2 months ago) and he got a new girlfriend the day we broke up. She is now his fiancée and pregnant.

I've had two boyfriends since we broke up and I gave one of them a second chance, and I am very happy with him. The first one I dated him for a little over a week. It was making my ex boyfriend so mad. I ended up breaking up with him because he liked my friend and wasnt gonna be just a way to get to her. then my other BF i really liked and had liked him for some time but he was another one of my friends ex's. I asked her if she would care if him and I dated and she said she didnt care. so Him and i dated for a week, then he broke up with me and said I wasnt the one for him but he would like to be. My ex was happy when him and I broke up and started talking to me again, even told me he wanted me to be in his wedding as one of his Fiancées bridesmaids. Then I got back together with the one that had just dumped me, because I believe everyone deserves a second chance.

Now my ex is all mad at me and cursing out my friends because they think its cute. But why would he get so mad when he has a fiancee and has a baby on the way?

(p.s.: he is 17 almost 18, I just turned 15)

Because adolescent males are stupid, that's why. He believes that you should be pining for him and crying in a corner because you are no longer with him and now he has a future wife and child on the way, which I highly doubt is going to last that long considering he is asking you to be a bridesmaid in his wedding. IF I were his fiance I would be more than upset at that idea.

Stop talking to him. Stop all communication with this guy, he is nothing but trouble and stupidity. You're 15 yrs old, he isn't even 18 yet and he is getting married and has a baby on the way, does that not say something to you in bright neon lettering?

He more than likely is going to marry this girl probably because he got her pregnant and for no other reason and after a few months he will cheat on her and his marriage will be over or he will end up one of those old guys who is constantly cheating on his wife and has nothing to do with his child.

He expects you to pine over him, cry in a corner and be all, "Oh, I don't know what I'm gonna do without him." and since you aren't doing that he is pissed that you listened to him and moved on.

Stop talking to this guy and just be with your bf. Not everyone deserves a second chance, but that's something to find out later in life.

Andy00 agony auntThis guys is a waste of time and you should be glad that the two of you broke up. I know that sounds harsh, but if he's going to move on from you, get another girl pregnant and propose to her all within a few months, how can he be considered anything other than an idiot?

He wants to move on himself, but he doesn't like the idea of you moving on which is why it annoys him when he see's you have a new guy. Basically, he can't have you, so he wants you. It is common psychology that when the more something is unavailable to us, the more we perceive it as valuable, and I think that's what's happening here. My advice would be to keep your distance from him. Don't avoid him, but certainly don't initiate contact with him. You are not his business anymore, so it shouldn't matter what he thinks. It's your life and you make your own decisions, so please don't let this guy play any further part in the decisions you make when it comes to boyfriends.
