Ex girlfriend, move on, is there hope?
My ex and I dated for about 3 and a half years, we met in high school and dated through our sophomore years of college, I treated her as best as I could, I took her out, I never raised my voice at her or cussed at her, I never cheated on her, I'm ambitious and those were all qualities that she liked so I was very secure as her boyfriend, she was a very good girlfriend, she was also ambitious, she's gorgeous, and she was very very loyal and faithful
About 3 weeks ago we broke up, it was mutual, we just wanted to be single and go as individuals and if it was meant to be, later on we'd get back together. We were both very sad, and at first I tried to get her to call it off, but she told me that she wanted to go through with it, so I left her alone, all of this happened over Facebook chat because she was too upset to talk to me over the phone
So for the past 3 weeks I;ve been giving her the space that she asked for, I;ve been working on improving myself, I started teaching myself the keyboard(sorta) I've been in the gym, and I've been keeping up with my classes, during this time I spent hours researching the best way to get your ex back
Eventually I came up with a plan to get her back, after a few more weeks I was going to try and start as friends and build up from there
But yesterday I received a fatal blow when I looked on her Facebook page and saw that she was in a relationship with another guy. I was so shocked because she never ever gave a guy another look while we were dating, and I didn't think she d get snap out of it that quickly. While I don't know the new guy, he's not very attractive according to all of her friends and we're exact opposites, basically he's opposite of everything she told me she liked
I asked her about it and I asked her how she could move on so quikcly and she said she was still in love with me and would never get over me but she was trying to move on, as much as it hurt me, I was so nice to her, and wished her well
Now I'm lost, today she put pictures of her up sleepign with the first present that I ever got her, a stuffed bear, that's very symbolic to her, and she still wears the necklace I gave her, I know she misses me, but I don't know what to think of this new relationship, is it a rebound? Is she missing the attention I gave her, and should I wait for her, I love her so much, more than anything, and I know most people would say move on, but I'm so stuck on this girl that I can't see myself dating anyone else, I know I'm still young (20) but I'm in a terrible place right now, I want to know whether I should continue to live my life, and hope that this relationship fails, or should I try and block her out all the way
PLEASEEEE HELP ME!!
