Is it normal to be mean to my ex so he will move on?

I've learned that me and my ex will never work out no matter how many times we try to work our relationship, our problem resurfaces again. I care for him I really do, but I can't deal with him being overly sensitive and insecure anymore. We always stop talking for forever how long then he always sends me a random text message and the whole cycle resurfaces again.

This time I know deep in my heart that I don't want to be with him, that's why when he text me this time I was rather cold and was being mean to him. I honestly want the poor guy to move on and find someone else that he's more compatible with, instead of playing these childish games with me.

But I feel bad for being cold I just want him to be happy and find someone else, he even stalks me on social media at times and tries to talk to me in person.

He tries to play it off that he doesn't have feelings for me anymore but it's obvious that he does.

I'm just wondering am I wrong for what I'm doing to him?

    I think you can text him one more time and tell him why you don´t want to be in touch with him, then for his sake block him on social media.

    But yes, he moves on quicker if you make him dislike you but you should also let him know WHY you are being that way.

    It would be better to detach and not respond than be nasty, but I can see why that's what you're doing.

    If you've been 100% clear with him that it's over, he won't accept that if you keep responding to him.

    What you really need to do is calmly send him a short, civil text message explaining what you said here and that you're going to cut all contact so you both can move on. After that, immediately block his number, block him on all social media accounts, and more.
