@OP same thing happened to me. You just gotta tell him. Speak now or forever hold your peace!

Was it his decision to end it because of distance? If so, you might need to consider not traveling is possible and you feel it's worth the investment.

sorry OP, there is no "one" person for us.

but if you really want this ex back just tell him how you feel-see if he feels the same way. at least you wont regret keeping silent

So much of this depends on the guy, but assuming you are the one that broke it off and he has a prototypical fragile male ego, when you reach out you need to put yourself out there in a vulnerable position with no expectation of him accepting/rejecting. If he engages then follow with your case for why you were wrong and what's different now.

Just tell em.

Had a similar situation recently (guy). Wrote her a letter and it seems to have worked, although it's been messy.

I've been told he has been seeing someone for a month now, does that complicate things? And it was a mutual break up

Yes, him seeing somebody else complicates things. However, if you're planning to talk to him, do it sooner rather than later.

How long has it been since you guys broke up

A year

As the owner, my focus is to help FAs succeed; as a firm, our focus is on client service and helping them succeed. I can afford a small salary, but not benefits. I'm especially interested in female FAs.
