Really want to confuse the heck out of him while feeling good yourself?
Be nice to him. Not "we're friends" nice, just... nice. Polite. "Hi, how are you?" Treat him the way you would treat an acquaintance, not someone you have history with. Be polite, courteous, calm, kind. You don't have to cozy up to him or anything.
See, anything else will just make things worse for you. Be nasty, or cold, and you'll know he's seeing how much he hurt you. Be polite, and he's just "somebody I went out with a few times." Don't say anything mean about him to anybody. When his name comes up, just smile and shrug. If anyone brings up your past, say, "He's okay - we went out for a while, but it didn't work out." Then change the subject.
This is a great opportunity to practice two skills that you'll use a lot for the rest of your life - letting something go when it's over, and being classy. Both great skills that will improve your life all over the place.
You might also use this chance to develop another useful skill - forgiveness. Not for him - for you. While you don't forgive him, then you're giving him power to make you feel awkward, or bad. He's human and flawed (maybe plenty flawed), so you forgive him for being such a jerk (which will, in the long run, hurt him more than you), and you move on.
Doesn't mean you have to pretend he's your best friend, just that you forgive him for being clueless and don't hold it against him that he was stupid enough to mess up his relationship with you. You don't have to take him back (why would you? He's shown that he has no problems stomping all over your feelings, which means at some point, he'd do it again), but you don't waste energy hating him, either.
Whether he meant to or not, your Ex did you a favor. He got you out of the relationship before he had time to really mess with your head, AND he's giving you a chance to grow and become someone who will go on to have a fabulous life.

Be too busy to even notice him, surround yourself with your friends. If he approaches you have one of your girlfriends call your cell phone after about 30 seconds into conversation with him. Cut him off and answer the phone & be all mushy & lovey on the phone(you might mention to the hunk on the phone that this"kid" you had a childhood crush on for a week or two is there with you)laugh alot. After saying "I love you, baby" hang up. Say "hey it was good seeing you. Take care bye!"
If he insists on talking to you cut him off & very nicley say"Hon I just have to go, sorry" & rush off like you are going to meet the love of your life.
I am not one for game playing but as long as you definetly have no intentions of ever ever getting back with this loser. I can see how he may have met someone else-it happens but then to have the nerve to try to get back with you after he jilted you, that s not right at all. He needs to know he is not Gods gift to women & he can't treat women like that.

You just have to ignore him, and possibly stop jumping into relationships without first assessing the other party's motives, intentions and true feelings thoroughly. Don't pay any heed to this guy. After all, he probably was another one of those jerks anyway - who ends a relationship after just 2 days, if he's supposedly serious about it?

it depends , if a boys tells you that he loves you very much but after a few days he puts an end to the friendship and goes with someone else , it means that he is only following his passions but otherwise it can be considered as just a mistake that he's made. it's up to you. think about what he's done(was it like the 1st case or the 2nd?) and make up your mind.
