You say you were dumped by your ex which implies that the decision to end the relationship was hers.
I appreciate that you may have agreed to remain friends, but, as a friend, she should have no objection to you going out with someone you really like.
If she has a problem with you going out with a friend of hers - the problem lies with her not you.
I know you want to keep everyone happy but life isn't that simple. If you think that her friend is something special, and her feelings are reciprocated, then go for it!
Long distance relationships however...
I agree with what you are saying AdamY, but I've never been in the situation myself (probably never will).
Adam, do what you want, and don't let people change your decision.
