Guy I'm 'dating' is upset with me about ex

So as I mentioned in an earlier post in the long distance section, I met this really great guy online and we've been talking for a couple months and plan on meeting in August (he lives in New York, I'm in CA). As much as I try to dismiss it as just being an online fling, I don't have 'online flings' and there is defintely something special about this. This is the first time I have been interested in having a relationship since my God awful break up a year and a half ago.

I don't keep in touch with my ex very much as things were very nasty. New girl in the picture, lotta pain, etc...

My ex had attempted a couple times to make peace, to be friends, as he was the one who admittedly was very much to blame. He expressed many times that he just wanted to be at peace with me, just be friends, that he just couldn't stand me hating him after we had been together for so long (almost 4 years). Well obviously with the passage of time I've gotten over the ex and that drama, I am VERY into seeing where things lead with this guy and so happy to find that my heart still works. However, my ex and I had planned to have lunch in a couple weeks, not sure why. Maybe a truce or something? I don't know. Completely platonic seriously, I could not be more into what I'm in right now and my ex knows he's lost his chances. I think we just wanted to try and meet up at least once as calm adults. I didn't want to be sneaky so i ran it by new guy...apparently a dumb thing to do because he completely flipped out. I explained that I could go either way that I didn't NEED to see my ex and if it bothered him I just wouldn't go. I thought I was doing the right thing, I mean as much as I dig the new guy, we're not 'TOgether', we haven't met yet regardless of how intense things have become and I didn't HAVE to ask, but I didn't want to be sneaky and I explained WHY I was considering it and made it very clear that if he didn't want me to go I wouldn't. He made it clear that, he didn't want me to go so I agreed I wouldn't. WELL consequently he was going to dinner and said hed call me after, he didn't. We talked at, let's see, about 8 his time, now it's 5 am his time and still not a word. At first I felt bad and was really sorry but now I'm just pissed off. I texted him about 10 his time expressing again that I was sorry------nothing. I called at about 11-----nothing. He's only done this once before and it didn't last all night. So now I'm upset and feeling very rash. I have an inclination to blow him off for a week and see how he likes it. I know thats not super mature, but I feel like he's trying to punish me...

What do I do?
