Based on personal experience I have ignored my significant other after a breakup because I am trying to sort out my feelings. It might still be too fresh of a wound for him to talk to you again. That's perfectly okay as some people do need their space after breakups, don't sweat it!

He could be ignoring you in order to help himself move on. Talking to you may be hard for him to get over you, so instead he chooses to ignore you until he is moved on.

Sometimes after breakups people need time alone, away from their old partner, it's difficult to explain but that's how it works sometimes, it's different for everyone.

It may be tempting to want to maintain contact after a breakup, especially if you're the one who has been broken up with, but taking some time and space will be good for both of you if what you're interested in is maintaining a friendship. It's not easy to have healed well for either person immediately.

Some people are not as resilient and strong as you are. Breakups usually mean a break of commitment and time. This is devastating for some, and relieving for others. As for a solution, my love, there may not be a way to fix that. Time is your best friend in relationships, or so my friend once said. It helped! Good luck, dearest.

The hard answer to that is because you are broken up. And even if people can become friends with their exes after a break-up, it takes time and space and both parties have to want it. Instead of looking for his attention, whether he left you or you left him, no matter what was said to gentle the trauma of a relationship ending, take time to focus on yourself instead, and practice some self-care.

He may need some space and time to process the break up and work out what he feels and thinks. Alone time can help process the situation

He might not want to face the fact that the two of you have broken up. It might be hard for him to think about.

If he is ignoring you after a breakup, it could be based on how nasty the breakup was, the fact that he is upset along with you or that he wants to give you some space. He doesn't want to hover over you and make things worse. If he acts fine then he may have moved on.
I still love my ex. Should I feel this way?
