my girlfriend (long distance) that I care for broke up with me last week because she let another guy flirt with her while she was dating me and since that happened she decided I didn't deserve someone that did that to me so she left me. However I'm worried about her because not only did she feel like she messed things up and I forgive her, she also opened up to me when i asked "how did she make the breakup seem so easy" she explained to me its not easy and has actually only been feeling worse even a few months before the breakup and I felt like she was depressed, then she said she didn't want temporary happiness again which left me lost.. everytime i tried to tell her something like "if there is anything i could do to help i'd like to" she would say "leave me alone is what you can do to help"
