Nina Dobrev and Ian Somerhalder seem to be moving on with their separate lives. Nina Dobrev was spotted getting close with Ben McKenzie at a Comic-Con party in San Diego on Saturday.

The two shared an embrace that was…well…not like you’d hug your brother. The rumor mill has been running full speed since that moment and it didn’t quiet things down when Nina Dobrev left Float Bar at the Hard Rock Hotel with McKenzie and the two shared a taxi to an unknown destination.

However, McKenzie isn’t the only boy that Nina Dobrev has been getting close to. Rumor has it that the The Vampire Diaries star has been spotted with Derek Theler.

But don’t worry, getting over her years-long relationship isn’t a one-way street and Nina Dobrev isn’t the only one moving on.

Her amiable ex and The Vampire Diaries co-star, Ian Somerhalder, has been seeing Twilight beauty Nikki Reed. I feel I might be sensing a pattern…

Things did seem to get just a bit awkward this week at Comic-Con when Nina Dobrev and Ian Somerhalder had to appear together to promote Vampire Diaries season six.

The problem is Nikki Reed was a mutual friend of Nina Dobrev and Ian Somerhalder. They even went on double dates with Nikki and her husband before her divorce.

An insider claims that, “At the WB booth, during The Vampire Diaries cast signing, Nina [Dobrev] and Ian [Somerhalder] were separated by Paul Wesley,”

Judging from the video, it was more than just Paul Wesley, but they were definitely separated.

This source went on to say, “It was awkward, all the other cast were sitting way closer to each other.” the source said, adding, “As soon as the signing ended, Nina was whisked away solo.”

Nina Dobrev and Ian Somerhalder have been broken up for over 18 months, but the recent news about Somerhalder dating their mutual friend Nikki Reed may have Nina Dobrev feeling a little betrayed by both.

If things are a little awkward between Nina Dobrev and her ex, we can only hope that it doesn’t show on screen!
