@bennylichtenwalner: If your ex seemed fine right after the breakup, even though they were sad during it, that's not moving on. A lot of times they made their mind up a while ago and have already been dealing with it before they ever told you. Then comes the relief phase. It feels like a vacation from reality, and most dismissive avoidants really mean it when they say they've never felt better, right up until about the three-month mark. Still hoping? DM me EMBER and I'll message you back.
