>somehow im still conpletely dead inside with severe depression
Its not a contest about who is more accomplished, im just wondering why i still feel like an abandoned loser despite everything else in my life being the best it has ever been. Even if she came back I wouldnt date her again, this has hurt me way too much to even want to talk to her ever again.
Please help.

I would say you are successful, but when you added that you have severe depression, it looks like you haven't accomplished shit, OP. Every woman for example can become a prostitute and make fat stacks. You can even scam people and make a bank. What is really difficult is to do a job that you really enjoy and make lots of money by doing what you love.
Reassess your priorities and change your life around, OP.

Heyyy are you me?
It sucks man. I realize the thing I need to give up most is the dreams of what life would be with her.
When I take a big fat sip of reality I turn around and look at a girl who didn't want the same stuff I did, wasn't into the same life I was, is a bad fit for what I want and that I still have all my chances at life.
But yeah I should also get a therapist because those moments last five minutes then I'm back thinking about lying next to her.
In the grand scheme of thing a year is not a lot if time, but following a traumatic incident, you should be able to recover mentally and at least get back to normal within 3 months. This is known as the hedonic treadmill.
My best guess is that you've worked yourself into depression or you have a form of clinical depression. Go get some counseling and talk through this with a professional. If they feel it is necessary they will have you take a blood test to see what levels your neurotransmitters are at as well as other proteins that affect dopamine production and production auxiliary molecules in your brain. If things are not where they ought to be then that is a sign of a persistent issue and you will be prescribed something.
Therapy is cheap and you will feel better if you are honest with them. Also cut out porn, you'll feel a lot better.
That aside, quit having a pity party and do something about it. Getting out and being social will help enhance new relationships so you can forget about the shitty ones.
she is gonna comeback to you when shes done being "young wild and free", is up to you to decide if you gonna be fag enough to take her back and forget this shit ever happened, seriously what so special about her that makes you feel "devastated" while living the best years of your life?
fucking idiot
