That male species dont show their emotions?
Today my ex moved out. I was sat on the stairs crying my eyes out watching him pack his stuff into his parents car. We spoke for 5 minutes and he said to me to make sure i get myself sorted out and that he didnt want me to phone him, then he says im going and walks out the front door without even looking at me.
I find this soo confussing as surely after 2 years of being and living with me he would at least feel a bit sad?

Wow, what a sucky day for you. Sorry you're going through this change in your life.
To answer your first question, the male species in general does show emotions. Some more than others. I'm guessing that the break up and move out was his idea, or his innitiating anyway. The reason he was so cold and matter of fact about it all was probably for many reasons, two in specific. 1, he didn't want to be overly nice or concerned and have you getting a shred of false hope from his niceness towards you. (i.e. maybe we'll get back together or this is temporary since he's acting like this..). And 2, this revelation of break up and move out isn't a shock to him. It's not something that was suddenly thrust apon him, he's had a while to mull over the decision and come to it on his own. He's gotten used to the idea that you two are no longer a we.
None of that helps, but it at least ends any confussion about why. Now the only question you need to be asking is How dumb is he to let a wonderful gal like you go?
