Some horrible news...

Last night I went out to dinner with an ex of mine and a few of our friends, on the car ride there she looks into my eyes and tells me that my eyes are really blue today.

My heart swells and my insides feel like a mixture of happiness and love.

She then tells me all about her trip to Dubai and how awesome it was. 

But THEN. THEN. She tells me something.

"I've met the guy I'm marrying. He's some geeky guy in Dubai who is into computers and is an accountant."

Out of the motherfucking blue, it feels like someone has punched me in the stomach and kicked me while I was down. 

We've been broken up a long time but, I'm here to tell you GB Community, casual sex can fuck up a mans friendship and his heart. I'm not over her. I never was. When she came round we'd spend the day laying in my bed, cuddling, kissing, watching bad television. All the finer things in life.

After dinner we went into an arcade. We were walking around and talking and I said something stupid (as per usual) so she slapped my arse, I slapped hers back laughing and she turns around. She tells me that we can't do this thing anymore. The way she said it she almost sounded sad. I hugged her and wanted to cry. She then tells me I will have to get over her. She said yes to this man in Dubai and I just feel like dying. 

In my whole life I've never had a night more depressing then this.

This is what happens when you fail to whip it out in the middle of the arcade and plow her. 
 
Oh, also...it's just poon, man.  There's a lot more out there.  Don't get hung up on her.  At least you have another notch on the bedpost.

Go have anonymous sex with strangers and go on a big bender. You'll forget about her, and kill your liver so it's all good. But that's a bummer dude.

What's so bad about this? You avoided marriage. Your life will be kept in safe status.

Argh, I thought I had it bad.
 
I feel for you man, I really do. Casual relationships almost never seem to work out from what my friends tell me. You both have to be on the exact same page, all the time. At that point, it might as well be a "serious" relationship.
 
My advice is to go grab some of your buddies and just keep yourself busy for the next while. Have fun, go drink, do some dumb shit that you may or may not regret the next morning. Play Demon's Souls drunk like I did a few weeks back. Just keep your mind off things for the meantime. This girl seems to really, really not be right for you (I mean getting engaged after barely knowing the guy? WTF?), so its best to just keep going your separate ways for now.

" Cool story br....No. For once I'm not going to be a snarky dick.  Sorry man that sucks, loving someone who doesn't love you back is a unique kind of pain. "
yes it is. having just recently gone through a break up for such ridiculous reasons (her dogs are too aggressive, can't handle the 15 min drive to my house) it is a very shitty pain to experience.  it's a lot easier said than done, but you will find someone and will get through this man. it's her loss for missin out on a quality guy like yourself

For some weird reason this made me laugh. Thankyou. "
You're welcome, son. Just know this.... There are people somewhere that are so ugly they will never even make contact with the other sex.   Also fish in the sea. "
Mustache Hero, you're the best hero.

the fact that she's saying this after only a week (or less) makes it seem like she's not worth it. I know it doesn't feel like it now, but eventually you'll be able to look back at it and realize what a mistake continuing a relationship with her would be. 
Also, the blue eyes comment when she knows you'll take it the wrong way is just a bitch move.

" I sometimes have to remind myself this is a video game site. So many kids/teens writing about there world ending girl troubles. :P  Perhaps that makes me sound like a dick but damn. It's not the end of the world mate, get over it. Suck it up.  edit: Andd i just realized this is in off topic so i suppose this being a video game site means zilch. Still! Point remains the world will keep spinning. ;D "
well this IS an off-topic section so i would hope it wouldn't have to do with video games

@LiquidPrince:  And...?
 
EDIT: I don't mean that in a sarcastic/asshole type of way. I'm legitimately curious. We can all commiserate together, I presume.

Complicated situation, but my heart literally hurts when I think about what's happened. Never thought it was possible to feel a heavy heart.

I pictured this in my mind and got a good laugh from it.

I feel ya. Man, women are complicated sometimes (or all the times, I'm not sure yet). Keep yourself distracted if you can, the less you think about it, the better you'll feel about yourself. Though you are entitled to be sad about the situation as well.
 
 At least, that's what I've learned from dealing with heartbreak.

Thats shitty man im sorry.
 
But its apart of life, you will come out better for the experience in time.
 
Just be wary of her coming back into your life as it suites her, that will fuck you up over the course of years if you dont make a definitve stand.
