Custom dialog won't dispose when dispose is called

So I'm very new to Codename One and I was trying out the Dialog class. When I create the Dialog it shows the Buttons and the text but when I want to dipose it, it won't disappear. Any suggestions?

private void createDialog(String title) {

    Dialog dialog = new Dialog(title);
    dialog.add("You ended the game.");
    dialog.add("Choose what to do");
    Button stay = new Button("Stay");
    Button newGame = new Button("New Game");
    Button menu = new Button("Menu");

    dialog.add(stay);
    dialog.add(menu);
    dialog.add(newGame);
    dialog.show();
    dialog.dispose();

     if(stay.isToggle()){
        //
     }

  }

I'm expecting a dialogbox with 3 buttons, 2 text. Then to dispose when I call the method. Also another question is the isToogle the right method to call, when I want something to happen if I click on the button?

You are calling dispose() method immediately after show(), which is wrong as it will attempt to dispose the dialog right after showing it.

Also, to add click event to a button, call addActionListener().

private void createDialog(String title) {

    Dialog dialog = new Dialog(title);
    dialog.add("You ended the game.");
    dialog.add("Choose what to do");
    Button stay = new Button("Stay");
    Button newGame = new Button("New Game");
    Button menu = new Button("Menu");

    dialog.add(stay);
    dialog.add(menu);
    dialog.add(newGame);
    dialog.show();

    stay.addActionListener(evt -> {
         dialog.dispose();
    });
}
