I find it classless, but worse is I never expected it from her, I thought she was different, and that's why im really hurt,
Just assume she really doesn't give a shit about you and this guy rocked her world.
Who cares? She moved on and she's going to do whatever the hell it is that she wants. Do you want to continue to sit there and think about it or do you want to get over it? If you WANT to continue to mope and cry, then stop posting about it here because no one wants to hear it. If you want genuine help you have to be committed to changing your attitude and ultimately your life.
You need someone to kick your ass and show you that this girl isn't worth your mental health, or much less, the time of day. You're focusing way too much on this girl. You need to redirect your attention to something that matters to YOU and it can't be her.
What she did is classless? Maybe. You didn't expect it? Ok. You're really hurt? Forget it. She's young and she's changing all the time. She's immature and probably doesn't know how to handle her feelings just as much as you don't. Nothing is going to change that and NOTHING is going to change how she feels for this other guy. Attraction isn't a choice you conscioully make and NOTHING you do will bring her back to a healthy place in your life.
Sitting here thinking about this isn't going to make you a better person and it's not going to help you get over her. You need a much more proactive approach to women, dating, and ultimately discovering your sense of worth. No real man would take the things that you're taking. Why? Because they know they don't have to. They don't have to suffer because they know that they're in demand and that they will have options and future choices in their life. And women? What about them? Who cares, ya they're fun and can be a very rewarding part of life, but they're not everything. You don't feel this way. You feel utterly hopeless. You have ZERO self-esteem.
So like I said, you have to make a committment to change or you're just going to suffer like this for a year or longer until one day a girl with low self-esteem herself will find something in you she'll find somewhat attractive. Then you'll enter into a weak relationship and this whole cycle will continue again.
Instead, you have the perfect opportunity to turn this heartache and depression you're in into something great. You can change your life from here. But you have to decide it for yourself. Because if you don't, nothing's going to change.

Confidence is acheived through knowing you're worth something. You don't feel this way about yourself. If you did, you wouldn't take what she's putting you through.
Learn to move on and grow as a person.

She kept telling me the past few days before the break up, im only 19 and don't want to feel like i'm married, and thats how it feels.
Look, take this opportunity and seize it. Take all those feelings you have inside of you and redirect that energy elsewhere. If you put as much attention as you did on her into something like school or your career you would end up incredibly satisfied in knowing that you accomplished something and that you aren't dependent on her or any other girl for your well-being. You have to learn to be a man.

A real man is someone who doesn't give a shit about her, and just wants some pussy and to party all the time? I gave her all she ever wanted, and stuck up for the things I believed in. I don't know how that led her to feel as if she was married.

A real man isn't someone who hinges his happiness on the happiness of a woman who doesn't care about him. A real man doesn't take things he doesn't want in his life. A real man is a master of his own destiny. Different men have different priorities. Some of those priorities are school or their career. Whatever it is, they focus on those things and accomplish them. Men conquer nations, develop economies, fight for civil liberties, raise families, etc. You're sitting her being defensive about some girl who doesn't want you anymore. Put it in perspective.
If you're going to ignore what I'm saying then say so, that way I can stop wasting my time.

No, Im taking in everything you are saying and I deeply appreciate it. I'm just saying I think this thing with this guy is just a fling, but I shouldn't even worry or care about that, I see where you are going with that, and I appreciate everyone's input on this thread.

Move out of this situation and focus on yourself for a while.

Okay I wrote her a facebook message saying that its taken me these 5 days and all my bitching to sort things out and figure out the deal. I told her maybe she'll change in the future and become the patient, loving, honest, sensitive, intellectual girl she used to be, or she'll continue to be immature and never change. I told her though that I am finally moving on from her and not caring about what she does, and I'm going in my own direction to find someone who loves me for who I am.

If it's music, then write a song and learn to play the guitar. It can be school, work, anything. The point is, you need something to focus on and turn into something you can touch, learn and feel inside of you. Something that you can be passionate about. You need to tap into what makes you feel really, reall good. And, this is important so pay attention, it can't rely on how a girl feels about it or you. In other words, you have to not give a shit about what any random girl might think. You have to pursue this "thing" that you choose for your OWN reasons.
This is so much more important and deeper than trying to impress girls. You first need to impress yourself, then impressing others will be a breeze. Once you find your passion in life it will start to fuel everything else in life... and until you find it, you don't know who you really are.
I'm sure at the age of 19 you haven't figured this out yet... hell at 24 I have no clue what my passion is. Try new things, find out what you enjoy doing, find out what really makes you happy. Once you've figured it out, everything else will start to fall into place.

If she DOES do something that stupid, then hang up the damn phone as soon as you hear her voice. Or cut her off and tell her to shut her bitch mouth because you don't want to talk to her, EVER AGAIN, and THEN hang up the phone!

If she calls again, dont answer. Pretty simple. If she KEEPS calling, when you answer let her blabber on and then say "look, I have moved on. I suggest you do the same" then resume silence again.
She is a young woman man. They want to explore. You CANT be mad at her for living her life. You can not be mad at her for acting exactly like what she is. Now grab your nuts, follow amisconception's advice and MOVE THE FUCK ON.

I think that she just likes all the new attention and it'll be a quick thing. I don't really care though, her loss.
By letting these emotions get the better of you, she still has power over you. If I was there right now I'd backhand you so hard you'd see stars! You're so enmeshed with her that you're not your own person anymore. Take yourself back for YOU!

We have all witnessed this relationship drag on for months with obsession driving one side and indifference driving the other. The end was imminent and was only prolonged by the indifferent side remaining tolerant.
Now she has motivation to face the drama and struggle of removing a co-dependent from her life - and that motivation is another man in persuit of her. Before that, it was easier just to tolerate his nonsense. That makes perfect sense to me and is very common in relationships. We all tolarate at one time or another because the alternative, whether it be drama or lonliness, is often worse. Although in this case, id imagine drama avoidance was her instigation.
Now she is leaving him but she is a heartless bitch? In my opinion, this was a long time coming. It was just never worth the struggle of hurting him/dealing with his retorts until now. I dont see why she should be faulted for that.

She shouldn't be faulted. Look what she has to work with No wonder she's been fickle with you.

Bro, you need to shape up and realize that this one girl should "be dead to you." Literally. Pretend she doesn't exist. Take her off your buddy list, facebook friends list, phonebook, EVERYTHING. You want to get to the point that if she does call you because she's feeling lazy one night and needs someone to cook dinner for her that you just laugh and hit the "ignore" button. But you'll never get there until you get rid of her completely.
Oh, listen to amis, that's some of the best advice i've seen here in a while. People pay $100/hr to hear that shit from a counselor, and you just got it for free.
Stop thinking about being "such a great guy and doing everything for her." Guys that do that are called husbands and most girls don't want husbands until they're like 24-25.

Alright thanks for all the advice, I've been talking to my dad alot and he's discussed a lot of qualities that I shouldnt want to put up with her, because in the long run I wouldn't be happy, and not to mention her family isn't the best either, although that shouldnt subtract the love for the girl, it makes things harder, not to mention shes half jewish and a jewish wedding would be more drama. My dad said he always has seen her as not jewish, and someone who likes a southern type of guy. I guess after all she's not the best fit. I took her off of facebook, my buddy list, and my phone. She still pops up in my head, but I immediately try to think of something else.
