You've learned an extremely valuable lesson, justadude: never pour your heart out to a girl. You can't imagine how impressed I am that you figured it out so quickly. Kudos to you.
Now the advice: Take it easy for the time being. You're in a lot of pain right now, and that's just fine. Just concentrate on keeping your head together for now. I've found that meditation can help, personally. Considering she also wronged you quite a bit, it might also help to learn to hate her. Mean of me to say, I know, but it's the truth.
As soon as you're ready to find someone else, do it, and never mention your ex to anyone ever again. When you find a woman you like, screw caution and just go for it. Cautious guys are the ones who wind up as 45-year-old bachelors.
Like Mondak, I'm also curious about your age. I'm gonna place my guess at anywhere between 15 and 22 (accept my apologies if I'm guessing way too low). If you're still high school age, then all the advice I have for you is that any dating that takes place between now and graduation is completely moot. High school romance, for lack of a better way to phrase it, simply doesn't count.
If you're out of high school, then I have plenty of dating advice for you, but concentrate on getting over this girl first.
