My girlfriend thinks its ok to hangout with her ex for hours after school, alone. She says their just friends, and they're just doing homework. I asked her to stop, and she never did. She gets mad and says i don't trust her. What should i do?

As long as they hang out as friends, I don't see anything wrong with it. She's right, you need to trust her.

i want to trust her, but some of my friends that stay after school say they see her and her ex walking around the school alone, and trying to get away from everyone, like they're trying to do someting.

Well, you know how this works, if she cheats on you, then it's over. But perhaps they're trying to stay friends after breaking up, resolving the things between them. If they had a long relationship and a sudden breaking up, it's normal that, in the "aftermath", they want to stick together for a bit.

Well, in that case, it's not as normal as I was thinking. But what can you do? Just trust her, but if you see they're getting closer and closer, and that she spends more time with him than with you, then just warn her once again, but be gentle.

it's not abnormal. Were they friends before they started going out? if so then it's not odd for their friendship to rekindle once the post-breakup-weirdness fades away.

If you're 100% sure they're just friends, yes.

If she says to trust her, then maybe you should trust her and give her the benefit of the doubt. People can be friends with their ex's and have nothing sexual or romantic between them, they can be just friends. Unless you have a real reason to suspect that it isn't a good idea and you're not just going off hearsay, I think you should calm down a bit and trust her. You don't have to like it but you can't choose her friends. You can't just expect that friendship to die out so yes I think it's normal and perfectly okay.

Relationships should be built on trust, if you don't trust her then what's the point of a relatonship? I actually am really close friends with my ex and he's like an older brother to me. So maybe they're just friends or maybe they're not. But you need to trust her to make the right decisions in your relationship.

Ok, thanks everyone for all the comments. I'm going to try to trust her more, but i feel like she's hanging out with him more than me. Should i just let it go?
