Sorry, but this is just not being honest. You want to see him upset because it validates you.
Once again, I
don't want to see him upset. I know he is not upset and what I want is to understand
how can he not be upset or miss me.

Otherwise, why would you be asking a group of random strangers to, against the obvious evidence, tell you that, "Oh no, dear, he's totally dying on the inside while faking the tough man routine"?
I ask in this forum because I thought that maybe other Aspies would understand his behaviour and explain it to me, because we NTs just
can't understand that lack of emotional attachment. I don't need no one to tell me that he is dying on the inside, because I know him and I can see that he is not. But if you can't understand my behaviour here as I can't understand my ex's behaviour, there's no point in trying.

Are you sure? I thought it was actually a general response for anyone who's still attached to a relationship/friendship and wondered why it wasn't reciprocated as they thought it'd be-- which can be related to
many posts here.
Nothing to do with NT or AS at all.
Agree, thanks for saying it.
