Understanding the end of a haram relationship

Assalamu alaykum, everyone. I wanted to share something I’m going through and maybe get some insight. I’m not Muslim myself, but I was in a relationship with a Muslim brother for three years. I understand that dating isn’t permitted in Islam, and he always made that clear, but we still tried to make it work. Over those years, things weren't bad between us, but he often shared how guilty he felt because it wasn’t allowed. This week, he decided to end things over text. We had a brief talk, and even though it really hurts, I think we parted on respectful terms. He unfriended me on all social media, which stings a little but I get it. I’m wondering if ending it during Ramadan was meaningful in some way? I know stepping away from a haram relationship is always the right choice, but I’m curious if Ramadan had any special role in his decision. Please be gentle-I’m just trying to make sense of it all, and through knowing him, I’ve gained so much respect and understanding for Islam.
