No, she wasn't perfect for you.
If she was, there wouldn't have been any of those issues to address. You just THINK she was perfect for you, because it was all you had.
If you honestly think you found the "perfect" person at 23, especially when you've never even really been dating, well, you're probably wrong. Having never really had multiple partners, (and I don't mean sexually), you barely even know what traits you're even looking for in other people, because you haven't really experienced it.
And don't give me the "I'm not the dating/bar/club type" bullshit either, because neither am I. The only difference is that I made up my mind to get off my ass and go meet people. Doesn't matter if you meet them in a bookstore, at school, off OK Cupid, who cares? Just go meet people, whether they're "the one" or not.
You'll quickly learn the good and the bad in people, and it will open you up to a world of opportunities and give you a fresh outlook that you never even knew was out there. It's amazing how often people who aren't someone's "type" end up being their "type" after all, and the people you think are "perfect" for you are just the opposite.
Suck it up, get over it, and don't be a loser. Everyone does the woe is me shit for a while. Once you get out and meet some people, you'll realize how asinine that attitude really is.
