Isn’t it crazy how time helps you to get over someone you once were so crazy over?

About 9 years ago I was with my first boyfriend and I swore I was so in love. I thought we would get married, have kids and run off into the sunset 🤣. He ended up leaving me for another girl and it hurt so bad. I was being so desperate. I wanted annd begged for answers from him. I stalked the other girl etc He ended up telling me that he didn’t want me and to leave him and her alone. Ever since then, he pops up on my social media liking pictures and messaging me. If this was 9 years ago, my heart would have jumped out of my chest seeing his name/a notification of his name going across my screen but I’ve matured so much. I’ve even had a kid and got myself involved with a far worse guy and obviously I’m not who I was then. He recently asked me on a date because he’s in town (I guess he ended up moving) I haven’t even responded because I’m not interested in going and backtracking and I’m no longer interested in him in that way. It’s just crazy because 9 years ago, after he kicked me to the curb, I’d imagine him coming running back to me and us getting that happy ending and now I’m just like “eh”. Anyone else ever experienced this?

I wish I could say I was in that phase but I'm not there yet.
