(How to open this response... Hm..?) There is something to be said about not letting your imagination hold dominance over you (or in other more cliched terms: run wild with fantasies of your ex dating Dwayne Wade). Sure, you'll be saddened by the potential prospects that the [recent] girl who has broken your heart has gotten over you since then, has moved onto the next relationship already, and could possibly be as contented now - thoughts begrudgingly moreso than - when she only had eyes for you. This is the natural course of social coupling, [as evidenced by the rough figure of 89% of all art and/or media has to do with this ONE constant in life] so there is reasonable reason why you should feel as though this will last forever (re: your feelings of loss).
This should be an inside-parenthenticals thought, but I'll say it plainly anyway: I should have summed this all up in sentence for your benefit, as well as our mutual convenience, so here is said synoptic reply to close: Live in the reality of the situation you are in right now, do not overthink things you have no way of shaping and/or knowing to be as dire as it was in your thought bubbles, and find the acceptable departure you can to bring comfort back into your life. (i.e. You will get over it if you put your mind in the right place, stop beating youself over hypothetical scenarios in which you cannot truly account for; she may be happier without you, maybe not, but the thing is, porbabily on your side, you will find happiness after her - perhaps over time you will still care for her, you might want to re-visit the notion of meeting her again - yet you cannot move forward unless you willingly decide to let go of what has you heartstrung.)
