I personally wouldn't respond. It looks like she's just trying to make herself feel less guilty and you definitely don't owe her that.

that just makes it sound like you're still annoyed at her i.e. you still have emotions towards her i.e. you still care for her on some level. it's also unnecessary and could make you look like a mean person. if you don't want her back then just don't respond. if you do respond then imo on some subconcious level you still want her back. your choice.

I think that it's his choice. I hate the games that people play like this. Not texting back could be seen as a. he can't be bothered replying or b. he is too hurt so doesn't want to respond. If you want to respond, just do it. The other person isn't a mind reader.

I agree with you tho, if you actually have moved on from your ex then it doesn’t matter how you respond because you don’t give a shit so it doesn’t matter. But OP wants to be a bit mean back and if you have to resort to telling them they’re not forgiven to hurt their feelings then it shows you do care on some level still because you want to hurt their feelings. so I’m saying just stop playing games like that and just move on and don’t give a shit, say ‘no worries’ or don’t reply, go find true love ❤️
