While I agree with most of what has been said
there is certain etiquette that should be maintained.

We can label it "The Bro Code" if you want to give it a name.

Also, more seriously:

Even though he broke up with you, after 2+ years, 3 weeks isn't a long time to completely get over any excess of feeling he may still have, and having not one, but it sounds like several of his friends wanting to make a move on you is something that would be difficult to handle.

There has been a lot of talk about maturity. At 17 I certainly wasn't particularly mature, and I'm certain that most of you weren't either.

Obviously his wallowing in self-pity and depression is his own problem, but at least be a little understanding about where he is coming from.
