Why has no one mentioned actually asking the guy his opinion on the matter? (I mean, this is assuming she gets over him, is ready for another relationship, and then decides that she wants that relationship to be with you...) I'm not saying ask him for permission, but just feel out what he might be thinking--he dumped her, so he honestly may not care. He may even be happy that she's moved on if he was reluctant to hurt her in the first place.
On the other hand, I openly dated an ex's roommate even though the ex's discontent on the matter was well expressed (exact same situation, he dumped me! I was so pissed that he thought he had any right to complain), so maybe I'm not like normal people on this matter.
