Going through your situation right now almost to a T. You responded to it like a champion by not giving her what she wants. It makes it easier for girls to move on if you play their little games, good for you for rising above it. She may not be feeling the same pain you are right now, but trust me, she's going to have a whole set of other emotions to deal with down the line (guilt, regret, shame, etc).
Yeah it's been just over 2 weeks since the whole ordeal and I'm slowly starting to move on with my life. It's tough and there are times that I miss her, but I've kept no contact since the day I took my things back from her. What's interesting enough is that my ex is in some weird anger stage towards me. She's texted me, tried to bait me into arguments but I've stood strong and haven't replied back to any of her texts (as much as I wanted to).
One of the main things that's helping me is reading about the different stages of grief. It's used mainly for losing loved ones, but can also be applied to break ups.
It helps because you can pinpoint what stage you're going through so you know that everything you're feeling is normal and allows you to keep your composure.
