Is there a such thing on getting closure on a relationship after the realtionship has ended 6weeks ago. I have never heard from him since then. I dont try to call him. Last I heard he had moved on with another woman. I am not mad about that I just want closure with how things ended with us. I just wonder will this ever happen or should I just leave it alone and go on with my life like he did.

This man will walk off from the new woman too, it's how he operates. There are a lot of men like that, and you are Lucky she has him for now, because a man like that is not good enogh for you. If he can be taken from you, he will be taken from her. My mother told me that, and I have seen it many times. She also said if they will stray with another woman, they weren't good enough for you, and your Lucky he's gone. It could have been worse. God Bless and Good Luck. God has someone better planned for you.

I wouldnt have waited six weeks to find "closure".

If there was something left to discuss with him about the relationship, you should've taken care of it six weeks ago. Not now that so much time has gone by. He sounds like he has moved on and it is not becoming of you to show that you are still dwelling on him.

I mean I get it, you two broke up, you haven't heard a peep from him. Not even an amicable, "sorry it didn't work out. I'll always cherish the time I spent with you. Farewell." It just kinda ended abruptly and you're left wondering about your significance to him since he has moved on and hasn't even gotten in touch to see if you're alive. It sucks, I know, but welcome to the club, hon, this has happened to everyone at some point in their lives.

The closure you seek is in his actions and in the manner this relationship has panned out. He moved on. There's your closure.

I know it hurts, but don't let it consume you. The only thing you want to show him right now is that you are NOT affected by any of this. Be strong.

Don't call him.

Don't ask his friends about him. Just act like you are fine, you're doing well and you are happy for him. If you run into him and his girl, just be polite.

The last thing you want to do is show him that you are affected by this. You will thank yourself later. Force yourself to go out, have fun and stay busy.

Good luck.

It depends OP, maybe if you give us more info someone here may be able to ease your mind with an explanation.

OP when I hear the word "closure" most of the time it sounds to me like someone who won't move on and just wants an excuse to be around that person again, feed their feelings and go back to square one by crying their eyes out and begging to be taken back. With women it always seems to be about whether they "really cared/loved me or not", which to me is a weird one as whether they did or not is irrelevant. It all depends on the break up itself.
