Excuse me for my dumbness....but I had very lowself esteem thats why I couldnt see how unusual or relationship was....I know it dosen't even matter to him. I was genuinely caring toward him. The worst part is I never heard of the term rebound-relationship......can I be angry or hate him for being a selfish basterd I try not to..but I feel like I invested too much of myself into that person and they just gobbled it up with all their pride...oh yeah "hes in a happy new relationship"...my feelings now mostly is shame and dissapointment....and I wish I could go away from this person but we go to the same school and I think he might feel overwhelmed by guilt when he sees me but..I don't care it feels worst that I actually believed he liked me...I feel embarassed for myself to call myself his ex...(well thats the way I see everything).....oh and I am very loud and happy around my friends and he came around...I went noticebly silent because *i felt emotions coming at me and my words coming to s slurr so i shut my mouth and when me and my friend walked infront of him to get forward*he was walking incredibly slow*...,i coward when i got close to him and looked down(its because i feel so stupid for loving someone so much who dosent think of me the smae way)..he looked at my face and tried to make eye contact..(WHY?)like i was so excitingly happy because of his presence..(no. i grew silent because of the shock of seeing him).....then he bursted out in laughter....*okay i know I had lowself esteem before but I acted that way for different reasons....soons as it fell silent *his laughter*....I continued conversation with my friend and walked away faster.....I know I don't mean nothing to him....should I have handle this situation differently.

First off, you are contradicting yourself here. Either you believe he feels guilty OR you believe you mean nothing. Not both.

 

In any case, yes, you should handle it differently. Stop trying to make him feel guilty. That will get you nowhere. By making it obvious how hurt you are, you are only feeding into his ego.

 

Stand up straight, ignore him. Don't be too obvious that you're ignoring him. Act casual like he's just another face in the crowd and stop dramatizing.

 

Other guys will respect you more if you don't act like a pitiful puppy.

 

Don't get me wrong. I'm not saying I don't feel for you, because that is far from it. I'm just saying that guys like him LIKE the idea that someone is hurt. He's a jerk, don't let yourself feed into him is all.

 

Hugs to you.
