No! Bad! Don't make me get the rolled up newspaper...

Your ex is gone. Your relationship with her is gone. That is all in the past and you can never have it again. It sucks. It hurts. You maybe feel like nobody could possibly understand. Sure break-ups happen all the time, but this was different, she was special...

I've been there. Shit, so have all of us. And the pain will not get better until you learn to be okay with the fact that what you had is gone forever. Then and only then will you be ready to move on with your life.

Your ex will do what she will. Pay no attention to it. It's up to her to deal with this as she sees fit, just as it's up to you to make the best choice for yourself. I would very strongly recommend not having any further contact with her. If you feel the need to explain to her, just tell her that you need to get your head on straight and need some time away from her to do so. If, IF, you want to have a friendship with her in the future (and that is all you will ever have, if even that much, so get any other thoughts out of your head right here and now), it will be essential for you to get some distance from her in order to get your feelings for her under control first.

I would strongly suggest not having any further involvement with the new girl either, because there's a very high probability that you'll end up causing her pain and I'm guessing she doesn't deserve that. On that score, however, you just have to judge for yourself.
