Why does my male friend rub his new girlfriend in my face?

Anonymous
He used to flirt and tease me a lot and he still stares at me even in front of her. He chose her however. But he is over the top when I’m there as to the PDAs with her and he has said things like “my dating Sarah is a white lie” and winked at me when we were discussing the subject of the moral justifications for lies which I felt was unkind given that he knows or has known that I have a soft spot for him. I have distanced myself from him socially and I don’t want to be around them and have cancelled plans where I might see them both. He added his girlfriend to a groupchat we’re both in seconds after replying to me with a provocative sentence ie ‘Do you believe in life after love?’I replied and then he added her. It all feels like a game. Why is he doing this? It isn’t fair. I just want to move on and he still sends signals and rubs her in my face..
