However I am over him. I can safely say that I have gone past the stages of wanting him back etc etc. Nevertheless, the idea of him going out and getting with other people and things hurts me... even though I've got with plenty of people since we've split up.
When you're with someone, and you become very much attached to that person it is very difficult to not feel weird about things like that. Even if you actually hate that person. For example, my friend was with someone for around 2 years and he cheated on her. When he found a new partner, she was absolutely devastated despite the fact she didn't want to be with him and actually wanted to kill him.
It's totally normal, and in time as your life moves on it will get easier. Particularly when the contact between you both becomes less and less :).
