Found 'situationship' guy on apps

Hi all,
Just want opinions to see if I'm over reacting or not....I have been in a relationship with a guy since August, it ended a few weeks ago with him seeming very genuine saying he didn't have space for a relationship and was scared of commitment at the moment. We've been keeping in contact, I really like this guy, and yes we have slept together. My friend has now spotted him on a dating app and when I mentioned this he acted like I was madly over reacting.
Yes we aren't together but he's kept me close since the break up telling me how sorry he is with his commitment issues etc. I now feel like an idiot cos if he was looking elsewhere surely its not commitment issues, its probably just an excuse!

Or he's just looking for more sex
Or yes it could just be the cliche excuse many of us have heard before he goes on to marry the next one
Only time will tell

He doesn't want a relationship. He told you that, which at least was somewhat decent, but is probably still onApps because he does want sex. He hasn't lied to you, but I also wouldn't be sleeping with him again.

I think you are overreacting because it's none of your business what he does, he doesn't owe you loyalty or exclusivity. If you want a relationship so much why are you wasting your time on a situationship? He's having his cakes and eating them, you obviously like him more than he likes you!

This.

Why would you assume that because he doesn't want a relationship he wouldn't go on dating apps?

It's no reflection on you and doesn't mean he was lying to you either.

You aren't listening to him. He hasn't lied.
