What does it mean when an ex who has moved on decides to offer to take you out and wants to buy you expensive treatments?

My ex visited our old hometown last Sunday and wanted to carry me out to a popular water spot with him. I went but I insisted he tells me if he has moved on. Later in the night he came back to my home and was open about his situation, saying that months after our breakup he decided to date but days after the first date, the girl came over to study at his place Nd they ended up having sex. He mentioned he didn't expect things to move so fast after they've just been together for a month even though he told her to slow it down. I thanked him for being honest and
that was it. The day after he got back home he called to ask if I want him to treat me to a skin treatment to do a procedure I always wanted when we were together. He even discussed it at lengths with me, even suggested I see a dermatologist first before having the procedure competed. What is this about?

it could just be friendship, I am friends with most of my ex's. one of my ex's once had a leg operation and couldn't work for a month so I paid her rent, I had absolutely no intention of geting back together with her. I am still close to her even though I have a girlfriend. one important question is if his new girlfriend is aware of him staying in contact and wanting to pay this procedure for you, if he is doing this without telling her than he might have other motives. I ALWAYS discuss with my girfriend when I want to spend time with my ex or other female friends (presently preparing to go have lunch with a 24 year old Ukrainian female friend ) and later hanging out with my best friend who is also a early 20's girl, but lesbian). I have many female friends but I am fatheful to the core and would never cheat on my girlfriend.

I’ve been watching videos by this guy who goes into why men behave this way. He’s the best one I’ve found in decades. He has one that speaks to your situation. I think his name is Brian Nox.

Enjoy your time with your ex, but don’t get your hopes up thinking he’s with you because you are special to him. You may be, but there are other reasons men come back to an ex, and it’s not what you hope for.

There is obviously still some mutual feelings go on in this.
Yes he has someone new but is he happy or is he wanting back what he lost.
Sometimes you have to lose something or someone to find out how important they really are to you.
