It's not a good option.
I read you're other post. I can see how much pain you are in. There is a solution.
It's not clear from your post but it sounds like you are still in college. Once you graduate, move to another city or town and reinvent yourself. It will be hard work and you maybe won't see results straight away. Do whatever you need to do to make your confidence grow. That could be working to improve your career, improving your physique, sharpening your social skills, whatever it takes to make you feel good about yourself. Then when you are happy with who you are, move city again and start life as the person you really are without all the pain weighing you down into being less that you know you are.
Life changes a lot for everyone as you move through it's different stages. This is true for people who seem to have their whole life go right as well as those who go through the shittier things that life can throw at you.
Most people fake who they are to some degree. You need to give yourself the chance to become who you really are without that shadow hanging over you. And when you do, life can be good again.

Really? Really?
Life is full of humiliation, c'est la vie, you'd better get used to it. If a single instance of humiliation makes you want to kill yourself, then there are deeper issues that you need to address. Go see a therapist, which is what you should have done in the first place, rather than coming into a completely unrelated subreddit and howling for attention.

Just read your other post. You need to realize that there is a difference between love and lust. What you felt for the girl was a biological lust. She was never more than a cunt to you and never displayed any attributes worthy of love. Do not beat yourself up over not understanding your own biology. The media goes out of their way to brainwash young impressionable males into mistaking the hormones flooding them as something it is not.
Make peace with who you are and be thankful you are in the pangs of grief one often goes through when being set free. You have a lifetime ahead of you, with which to enrich yourself and any you choose to love (whether that be your best bro, your dad, a dog whoever). Life is as full as we feel we deserve.
That cunt didn't deserve you.

There are a few good people out there, but the bulk of humans are contemptible in my opinion, they aren't worth killing yourself over.

No it isn't.
I thought about killing myself a few times before.
After waiting a while (a few weeks) I realized I felt differently and didn't want to kill myself.
Since then I've actually discovered certain passions/joys that I look forward to which made me glad I didn't kill myself.
This too shall pass. You are still young. You will feel differently about the past soon enough..

When I was 25 I had thoughts like this, for a long time. Looking back now, I would have missed out on so much if I'd gone through with it.
Please dont. You have plenty to look forward to. This is gonna be a really shit analogy but I'm gonna run with it:
Life is a tunnel. Some parts are well lit and others are so dark you cant see your own hand in front of your face. If you top yourself during a dark part you'll never see the next section of light.
Keep going. And never kill yourself over a fucking woman mate.
