The ex is probably WELL AWARE that he has met another girl he likes and that's why she's being so frosty. It sounds like she just wants him to have the cojones to come to her and say "I really feel bad about this, but I really did ask you just as a friend and I'm sorry if you thought it was more. Given that you haven't seemed to want to be around me I don't think we would have fun at the formal."
He will have to crawl on his belly a little, but it'll be worth it. Then he and his new woman can go to the formal and have a good time. Plus, I'm assuming this is HIS formal not hers. It's not like she will have to show up at her own formal without a date. That would be a whole other story.
Yes it does suck being dumped, but it sucks more being on a date (especially to a formal) with a guy who doesn't want to be with you. It's one thing to ask/go with an ex if you know the feelings on both sides are STONE COLD DEAD (i.e., if taking them would be like taking one of your brothers/sisters as a date) but they rarely are.
