How long did it take.....

Hi All,
I posted this on another site and would like your opinions....
I was involved in a long distance relationship for just over a year, we broke up just before Thanksgiving...it did not work out for many reasons. I tried to save it, but there was nothing I could do. I found out very recently that she is now engaged to be married in November. I though our relationship was very important to both of us even if it didn't work out like I wanted. My questions is, have any of you had experiences or know of people who have gotten engaged so quickly after what was thought to be a very intense & loving relationship? If so, have they worked out? I must admit to being a little dumbfounded, moving on has been much slower for me.
Thanks, Uly

She's doing with her life what she wants/needs. You have to take the same steps to move on. Grief for what might have been, for what could have been, for what you hoped would have been. AND remember YOU are NOT less than because of her choices, actions, decisions, etc. It also doesn't mean that when you were together that she didn't love you, like you or want to be with you. Life has changed.
