Hit the gym. Take a couple hobbies. Get the eff back out there and for gods sakes man, realize that all heartbreak is bad, that's why they call it heartbreak and not heartfizzle. Seriously, the more you move on, the easier it gets. Time heals all wounds my friend.

you know, I've heard this a lot, but it sounds better every time I do. I've already started hitting the gym again...i'm waiting for my car to get fixed so I can take up some hobbies...despite the fact that I'm broke...but I'll figure something out.

There are a ton of free hobbies which are great for meeting women. Additionally, spring is just starting so it is the perfect time to be single.
Try jogging / walking your dog. Biking, skateboarding, parkour, activism [protests/rallies], volunteering at charity events, pick up a second job, do some freelance work, etc..
Keep yourself as active as possible.

upvote for gym AND eating healthy. not only will it make you look better but you'll FEEL much better too which will start the ball rolling in the right direction. i always recommend some kinda martial art because it's a lot more fun than just running and lifting. like see if there are any boxing gyms in your hood.
start out by getting the AA handled by talking to random people more and more. decide that tomorrow you're going to attempt to make brief, casual chit chat with 3 people and post a field report. you can totally do that. managable goals man. you're a new man and we're all here for you. DO IT UP.

ah yes. forgot about eating right. also, dont worry about just approaching girls, if that is too much, find a couple of dudes to talk to. obviously you dont wanna stay at that stage forever, but who cares if those dudes dont like you, just get out there and go for it!

I've decided that I'm going to try to post a FR tomorrow
I think he's going to be just fine, Mates. Welcome to seddit Bro, stick with us.

This is what seddit is for. That's how I got started, I was crushed by a failed relationship and decided I had to reform my life. And pickup is primarily a self-improvement system, we are just using something that highly motivates us (sex) to push us forward. That is our reward.
So start like I did, read the sidebar and some of the introductory posts with basic instructional materials. Seddit is like the footnotes to pickup instructional manuals, you can't get the whole deal by just reading seddit. Interacting in seddit kind of assumes you have some basic knowledge of those materials.

This. I started reading seddit a bit after I too had a LTR end rather abruptly and horribly. I still regress into depression/negative feelings every now and then but it's quite easy to get out of these funks by going out and applying what you learn here.
Thinking about calling her up just for old times sakes or to see how she's doing because you're feeling lonely? Come read a few seddit articles and then go out and hit on the first thing that catches your eye. Doesn't matter what the results are, your confidence will be boosted and your mind will be focused on other things.

she hopes I won't even remember her someday
i hope you don't remember her either. she seems kind of mean.
get on the path - youve read the books, you know what to do. You're here now so you can start moving and see where it goes. It's going to suck at first. but if you keep at it i can at least promise you that you will forget about HER.
ps defriending her from FB was definitely a good move. and arent there like a bunch of hot hippie music chicks in austin?

Damn, can't beat the details in this post, now he has no excuse!

First: detach yourself from her opinion of you. Its time to re-establish your independence. Cut communication from her completely, remember that all things that come out of her mouth are done to make her feel superior over you and "win" the breakup. You need to define yourself by how you see yourself. And define yourself positively, and you will feel positive. Your strategy for success is to evolve into a man 1000x greater than anything you were before. Use that pain to motivate and empower you.
Then get yourself involved in as many things as you can. Go on an all out self-improvement binge. Improve your diet, your exercise, your hygiene, your talents/skills, your reputation, your career. If you want to meet girls, save up some money and sign your ass up for Yoga. Be sociable with everyone there [and make sure you smell good].
You've faced many challenges before in you life, look back on them and remember that at the time they seemed overwhelming... but you survived, you got over it, you met the obstacle and overcame it. This too is another one of those moments that seem daunting, but you'll get over this too and in the future you'll look back and laugh at how far you've come.

Yo chubbs if you ever want to go sarging I hang around Austin. We'll have a fucking blast.

You're a good man. He should totally take you up on this.
If you're not into the whole gym thing, I downloaded P90X and it has done absolute wonders for me. I can't even explain it in words, but every day is a much better day. Try it out.
Also, go on Austin's subreddit. I live in Toronto and they have reddit meetups all the time! Seriously, all the time. You will meet people.
Good luck.
