Ex has me blocked in everything, but I still want closure.

I took a social psychology class where I learned that, as humans, one of the hardest things to move on from is the not knowing why a relationship fell apart. After learning that, every time I or someone I care about is in exactly where you are now I advise myself/them to recognize that the one leaving me/them hanging knows what they are doing (we all instinctively know how hard it is to not have closure) and realize that your agony is exactly what they want! The more you try to gain closure, the more satisfied they become. They are acting like immature dicks & should be treated as such. Taking the “blame” off of yourself & putting it onto them, helps with the moving on.
