    5 years is a big gap when the woman is in her career and you are working part time finishing a degree.. Add to that that you yourself said y'all don't have much in common.

    Just move on, fighting for her back will just make you look more weak and less desirable.

    You've been dating 3 years? 6 randos and you will be over her. Thank me later.

    Very few people find "the one" while they're in their 20's. Ironically, the OP probably won't understand this until he's not in his 20's anymore.

    My buddy's first wife left him for a woman, they even had a son together. He ended up marrying a smoking hot redhead about 10 years younger than him and they had a beautiful daughter together. Flash forward 25 years to today and he has a great family.

    "My bad, meant to text you last night. But on what you said... Yeah, that's cool. Let me know if there's anything that you need to get from my place"

    Be petty... Text her that.

    by my calculations, every rando is equivalent to 6 months. So that means, if I connect 6 randos with friends, I'll get into a 3 year long relationship?

    Dude, she cheated on you. Or is close to doing it. Let her go. Find someone better.

    She's being very nice or truthful.

    It may hurt like hell now but there are millions of women out there, the best cure is to cut all contact with your chick and find some new trim. You're young and you've got a hell of a lot of living to do, now you're free to do just that.

    I dated a lesbian when I was 16. She was very cute and upped the potential for my next girl find.

    The situation resolved itself.

    As you likely know and have experienced, delaying the inevitable does more harm than good.

    There are many general assumptions made about love and romance in the adolescent and young adult stages that are based purely on feelings and have no basis in long-term reality.

    My 13 year old thinks he's in love with his girlfriend and he'll die without her. 2 weeks later he'd rather be playing 2K than hanging out with her.

    Starting in this stage, females start to become increasingly worried about their appearance whereas males become increasingly egocentric and worried about their fragile ego balance.

    This period of insecurity for both sexes leads to looking for "love" in other people, not understanding that these feelings are intoxicating only because they are being experienced for the first time. Love is a relative term. We expect when we hear it is has a certain endless value but it never really does. "I love turtles" is a relative term. Will the I love turtles boy still love turtles when he's 48? Possibly, but hardly with the some vigor.

    When the male gets a good read of himself and understands his strengths and weaknesses, he is able to accept himself and shed egocentric worry. Confidence sets in and then animal instinct. Mate with as many females as possible. The scent of the alpha is in the air.

    Even if the male does remain in a constant state throughout the maturation process, it is even less likely the female also does. The high school sweethearts still married after 30 years. Did both of them figure it out early or did neither of them ever get it? Depends on perspective I suppose.
