What's the most satisfying "no" you've ever given?

My ex and I went to a comic/anime/fan convention together. It was a weekend event friday-sunday. We had been dating for a few months and he'd been distant for the past few weeks before the convention, but I thought it would be a good way for us to renew the spark. I was really looking forward to spending the weekend with him and had gotten us a hotel room with friends. Throughout the whole weekend he was distant and cold, refusing any romantic advances I had towards him, going to stay in a different hotel room, spending more time with another female friend of his, refusing to spend time with me when I tried to suggest things we could do together, worst of all without giving me any reason. He would even physically reject me if I tried to kiss him!

Sunday night after the convention he said we had to talk, I let him know I was very upset at how he had treated me and he told me he basically thought we weren't romantically compatible and had been losing interest in the relationship for weeks. In retrospect, I didn't have any deep feelings towards him, and I wish he would've let me know before the convention and hadn't ruined what could have been a nice weekend even if it wasn't with him. I agreed we weren't compatible and was coming to terms with being broken up with but he somehow rubbed salts in the wounds by telling me he was glad we dated because I "made him a better person" and "taught him a lesson" in how to treat people. It was just a really gross thing to say to someone.

I saw on social media a few minutes later that he was talking about meeting a really "adorable girl at the con who should hit him up if she sees this" and when he asked if we wanted to still be friends you can basically guess what my response was. Now he's dating the female friend he spent all of his time with at the convention.
