Dude you basically just wrote out my story word for word. Took me 3 years but eventually evolved to the point where she wouldn't be good enough for me now. I'm now in a incredible relationship with a woman that's way hotter, far more accomplished professionally, and is so into me it's wild. Shes a giver just like you and me.. I stopped thinking about my ex everyday around the 2.5 year mark. It gave me motivation the whole time. I met great girls to date along the way but felt just like you and it was a no go. Just keep improving your well being and she will eventually fade. Don't ever look at her social. Pretend she died. It's hard loving someone that doesn't love you back. Never again put a woman on a pedestal. Always meet them half way. If you can find complete happiness alone you will eventually merge with someone way better than your ex. The balance of power needs to be equal or flow slightly back and forth. I can't believe she stayed with you for that long until you broke up with her. No idea what she was thinking. She sounds very selfish to be honest. My ex was too. If anyone would have told me that a year after the break up I would have defended her. One day you will stop thinking about her. The wound in your heart will scar over. If you don't get jaded you'll find what your heart needs. Use what you learned from that relationship and correct the mistakes.
