How long have they been broken up for? If it was recent the feelings are probably still there and it’s hard not to act on them if you’re hanging out together.

Ex-lovers don’t just “hang out”. He’s likely already bedded her down. Move on with your life. She wasn’t worth it anyway.

I agree with lauretta_l.. if they broke up not too long ago, they are propably still feeling things for each other.

Ideally you would know and trust her well enough that this would not be a problem. Unfortunately, usually aren’t ideal, and people often don’t know themselves. Basically, you don’t want to play the part of the jealous boyfriend, but you don’t want to tell her to hang out with him all the time, and thereby put your relationship at risk. My advice is to agree to let her hang out with him in a public setting with some specific, non-romantic activity. If you don’t have a problem with it you could even ask to join (which if done in the right way is being the opposite of jealous or insecure.) There really is no reason why they would need to just “hang out” without any specific activity or not in a public setting. Anyway, be careful and try to be cool about it.

That’s unfortunate. I can’t say I’ve had the best experiences either, but if I considered someone worth getting into a relationship with, then I would consider them worth having faith in. In other words, I wouldn’t get into a relationship with someone I didn’t already trust a lot.

I agree.
Also, why didn’t she just invite you along if it was no big deal?
