This is something I have found to be quite interesting as I know a lot of people who go through this, myself included.
For instance say your ex was into exotic brunettes and suddenly turns to blondes or was into the typical "caucasian" (light skin, light hair) man and is suddenly dating exotic men after your break up ... How would you interpret this sudden switch? (Would you take offense ...)
After going through multiple disappointments with men who were supposedly "my type", I'm suddenly attracted to the complete opposite to the point where I no longer have any sort of sexual attraction towards these "exes". Sure, I think they're cute but quite meh. Hence, I'm quite curious.
My current bf has a long history of dating church girls who wanted to get married, have kids, and were extremely high maintenance/wanted to be the center of attention.
I am/want none of those things.
I think people will always test the waters and change their tastes based off of good/bad experiences.
Well people may change. They think they want one thing, but after it doesn't work out, maybe a few times, they switch over and go for something different. Like a girl who dates the bad boys because they have those stereotypical traits many girls love. After it causes tons of drama, and she's been dumped or lead around alot, she'll go for a nicer guy--maybe the guys that stay friendzoned alot.
That was cliche, but an example nonetheless. lol
As for me, if I had a boyfriend, and he became an ex, I wouldn't care who he was with.
1. If I dump him, then I apparently didn't care for him in that way anymore, thus wouldn't care that he was moving on with his life.
2. If he dumps me, I assume the same thing. He just didn't feel that way for me anymore, so naturally, he'll start dating another/different girl he is feeling it with. Not to say I may not be upset with losing him, but it was fun while it lasted, and he wasn't the one for me.

I would have no clue what an ex anything was doing or who they are dating.
Once and ex always an ex and no thought about them after I walk out of the door.
Seriously, who cares, their life, their choices and obviously they have moved on.
But all my exes dated brunettes before and after me, so I was never really surprised.
I had a cheater ex and always knew immediately with whom he was doing it on the side when I saw them around town - all the girls looked like they could be related to me.

No, I wouldn't take offense. Be congratulatory! Least they're now not your concern? And, maybe they can find someone they can truly be happy with?
