It’s a defense mechanism, and it’s more common among guys. I would say there’s a good chance he’s every bit as devastated as you are. Another possibility is that for him, maybe things have been over for more than just two days. In other words, it’s possible that he recognized the end of your relationship prior to your “official” break-up, and that maybe he has already had time to go through the motions.

 Without knowing the specifics of your breakup I don't know for sure.
In many cases, a relationship can end a long time before a breakup happens. If this was the case, your BF has likely made his peace with the relationship being over a long time before the actual breakup.
If the breakup was sudden and unexpected, then he is probably just hiding his emotions.

 The first thing that would need addressing is if you were both so 'bummed' about the split, why did you??
When guys split with their girlfriends, in general, they do get upset, but the help of friends help you to deal with it and keep your mind off it. This would probibly explain why there has been such a drastic change in his attitude. Does not mean that he still isnt hurting, would just indicate that he is trying to get on with things as best as he can.
