<human>: It's my cake day so I thought I would give a small update/thank you to the redditors here on r/relationships.

A while ago I posted on a throwaway about how to deal with my ex of over 3 years who used me as a fall-back/doormat for partnership and mainly sex whenever she did not have a boyfriend and as soon as some guy who was new and interesting came into her life I would be left out in the rain. 

The most recent one was an exchange student who is here for 6 months while on study. She was secretly seeing us both by the end of it at the same time and ended up cutting it off with me to be with him and is now travelling in another country for a month together before he leaves back to his home. 

I asked you all here what I should do and how to move on and for once in the past 2 years of me being the doormat I finally have gone NC for over two and a half weeks and counting. I know, it's not much at all but everyone has to start somewhere right? 

Now I won't lie, I have wanted to check her facebook to see how she is but I know that deep down it'll only just put me back at square one. 

The most poignant and motivational message that someone here pm'd me was:

"Whenever you think about breaking the NC just think about whether she really is cares what you are up to right at this very moment, whether she is losing sleep over you and whether your on her mind when she's in bed with him. I'd bet not at all dude, so why are you doing that for her. Stay NC and move on."

To that user especially, along with the bloke who offered me a place to crash on if I ever travelled to the country I want to visit in the future and to everyone else here who gave me advice and helped me come to terms with it all and to understand I am better than this, and her for that matter, I thank you.

Can you condense the text into three sentences or less?
<bot>: Thanking you all for your support in helping me begin to move on and no longer be a doormat for someone I once held dear.
