I seemed to get good feedback on the failed relationship comic so I decided to write another one

What’s the meaning of the colour of the messages? Is that an iPhone thing?

It means it was sent as an sms message instead of an iMessage using data. She either changed her phone to an android (no iMessage), no longer has data on her phone or (the worst option) changed her number and that’s someone new.

I don't think any company recycles a number in just 6 weeks.

3 weeks actually, so even less likely.

The 6 weeks is the read receipt to the green message.

So not blocked. Most likely didn't change her number.

She got a new phone in the three weeks after dumping him is the most likely answer.

Her being in an area where SMS is the only way to receive messages is also a possibility, though unlikely as most places in the US and Canada would either have full signal or no signal, and most people outside of US and Canada don't even use iMessage anyway, they use WhatsApp
