If a guy acts like he isn’t hurt after a breakup, is he not hurt or sad?

This guy and I had been seeing each other and we didn’t expect anything to really happen but we both really enjoyed each other the several months we were together. I could feel his energy and chemistry we shared, I know there were feelings and it wasn’t just me. But he had to move abroad for work (or he’d be jobless) until next year and because all long distance relationships for him have failed (4 tries and all failed) he doesn’t want to attempt long distance but wants to remain in contact and then when he comes back we’ll meet up again and see.

When things ended between us, while talking on the phone for the last time, he didn’t seem fazed or sad or express any emotion. Id try to fish for answers and emotion from him and he would respond so flatly. He expressed how he liked me and spending time with me and apologized it had to be this way, but i didn’t hear emotion. I asked him what if he wasn't moving, would we be more? And he got irritated and said that isn’t the case so why ask. And when I kept pressing who I was to him and if he thinks we have a future, he wouldn’t go there. He just kept saying it’s so far away, let’s stay in touch and let it roll out and we’ll meet when he’s back. I haven’t gotten any emotional text (it’s been a month) or any emotion from him from our separation. Like no “I miss you” or anything. Does this mean he doesn’t care?
