Very sad and hurt. I don’t know if I’ll be

I wouldn’t start this process over again with someone else.
My experience with that phrase - “it’s not my story to tell” - is that it is used out of respect for the person it pertains to. In other words her reason for moving may be because of something going on privately with a loved one, and she does not feel that telling their private issues to other people is respectful of her loved one’s privacy.
