I also don't believe in friends with ex. It makes you especially "the one damped" to still be emotionally attached to him or her. This becomes a bigger problem when he is still in love with his ex. The old flame still lingers around. Even if such a person is able to move on, by being in a new relationship or at most marrying, the new partner falls at a 2nd place emotionally in his heart although physically and publicly, the new partner appears to be the first. Such people tend to make their ex happy and meet their needs even at the expense of the new relationship and their new partner.
The end result is that the new relationship is not able to mature emotionally,the new relationship suffers frequent arguments and friction, the new partner harbours resentment, pain and even hatred towards them if she decides to stay.... Even though he may not cheat with his ex and still do his responsibilities to his new partner...Everyone wants to feel loved and be the first in his partner's heart...
How do you expect to receive fresh wine when your cup is already full with old wine. Even if it is not full, it would be contaminated.
If you want to enjoy life to its full with your new found love, put your ex where they ought to be... I.e. in the past.
