When you're ex says "I hope you're doing well", do you think they truly mean it?

They most likely mean it. I know I wouldn't say nice things to people that I don't care about. There's this girl that messed with my brain, but I loved her and I feel like that when someone brings her into discussion. "I hope she's ok and that nothing bad with happen to her". But then the next second my brain wanders to something else.
I don't want to actually meet her or hang out with her. I just don't. I only have good things to wish her for, but that's it.
Even stranger as we are neighbors :)

*nothing bad will happen to her

No... at least I wouldn't. Usually, even when the breakup went "well", I'm angry and jealous, thinking she's living a great life without me. Until I were happy or in a new relationship would I then be more friendly and actually be interested in knowing she's doing well.

This guy could just be latched on still and just wants some sort of contact with you, even if it's not meaningful or real.

With even a message rolling off their tongue, Yes... They truly mean it. It's a sure way to start their own day and a signal sign that they Have... Motive in mind.
I Mean they may want to be Friends with or without benefits. It doesn't necessarily Mean they want to be hooked at the hip just because they 'Mean' to ask how you are by far.
Good luck. xx

They could. It means they feel guilty for what happened so they want you to be well off so you forget them...
