DarkStar, don't take it the wrong way but the problem is that you were the "perfect gentleman". Always dependable, always there for her, and always predictable. Her ex-boyfriend must have been the jerk who is never dependable, unpredictable, and exciting. Honestly, many girls find guys like you to be marriage material, at best, but nothing more -- but notice I didn't say all.
Listen to the great advice everyone here has given you and pick up a hobbie of your choice. Get out and meet people. Social interaction will help you alleviate your sorrows and remember, it's not the end of the world. There are plenty of women out there and don't be ashamed of being labeled single because that's what you are now. Dwelling on the past will only bring pain and keep in mind that she was not the woman for you.
One question I have is, why did you allow your then-g/f to talk to her ex? Ex's talk to one another because either one side or both sides aren't ready to give up on the feelings they once shared -- or those feelings may still exist. It is NEVER acceptable for a dating couple to allow one another to talk to their ex's because something like this is bound to happen. Take charge and be the man in the relationship, instead of this sissy goody-two-shoes who'll bend over backwards with a lease around your neck. When she says "Jump", the incorrect answer is "How high?".

You sound just like my father and you are truly right. I thank you for taking the time to be honest and respond to this thread. I sometime wish my mother didnt push so hard for me to be a gentlemen because it has made me weak when it comes to women. However I plan on buying a 9mm this weekend and going to the gun range etc. Im sick of being the nice guy and now I plan on taking care of myself first. I will no longer caiter to women the way I once did in the past. I will also not allow a women to get that close to me again for quite a long time. Because I am chirstrian I can just go out and sleep with women whom I dont intend or marrying. Thus my religous stance had created a dependency for a relaionship becuase I could cuddle kiss etc with out breaking the boundaries of my relegion. However at this point I have to step back and close down the shop. Honestly the way men treat women and vice versa today I am starting to think I may never have a family. I refuse to share my life,my passions my fears, my joys with a person who will take this and weild it like how a dumb three year old child holds a knife. In spite a major change of my stance when it comes my manhood needs to happen. So like the lone ranger I step back in the world a cold quite and soon to be gun slanging cowboy(who dont take no sh&t) from no women.

Man you know Life is really hard folks. I mean im very grateful I live in the US and have food, clothes etc. I have fought depression twice in my life and believe me when I tell you that it is one of the hardest things in your life to deal with. With this blow I have lost allot of confidence in myself and how I treat people. I was nothing but a gentlemen with this young lady. She just ups and calls me and says im leaving and thats it. Blehh if i wasnt at work a think I would curl up in a ball and cry my eyes out.(Not that it would help any). After being hurt like this is just furthers my feelings on how you treat people. One day when I do have kids im not going to allow my son or daughter to be a player etc, but to respect other peoples feelings. I did nothing to deserve this treatment and I hope that KARMA's justice is swift and hard.
