This is the second story I didn't want to answer because I don't think I can say anything positive except that myself (and I'm sure many others on this site) have been in the position you are right now. There is very little worse. I know exactly how you are feeling. In fact, one of the reasons I'm on this site was because I was grieving for a lost relationship.
I know it's a cliche but it *will* get better. There are people I never thought I'd get over and now I no longer care what they do. But I had to put some of the distance there myself. I think you may have to do the same.
Basically why I joined this site too. I wanted answers to see if what I was going through was normal. Most of the questions I post are relationship related, haha.
I know it will get better, but who knows how long. Though I hope it's soon. I want to get over her but I don't want to tarnish my memories of her by treating it like a "learning experience of life" or some crap. I really loved her and in my eyes, I don't think you can say you really love someone unless you can hold onto that feeling even in their abscence. If I look back on my memories of her someday and think "wow, glad that relationship ended" then I want it to ONLY be because I found someone new, and NEVER because I left the relationship with resentment or regret like most people seem to end up with.
Is it normal to feel so outdone by my ex's current boyfriend?
