What does them being happy from a goodbye mean?

I told someone i moved on from them & others in a nice manner & wished them the best in life and they said “this is understandable this made me happy thanks for being honest”. I was scared it would make them be mad because they sent me a long message about missing me but they shocked me i hope they’re truly okay & im glad for them.
