he left me for someone "better"

[rescueme]

he was with me around 9 months. He met her on a week long summer course a month back. he broke up with me, and I discovered the very next day he was stright on skype talking to her saying he had never really thought of me as a gf, and that he didnt tell her about me at the time they were in the course and "acting as a couple" as he didnt find the right time.... but that he wants to have a relationship with her..... she lives in america. He lives in England. He thinks its viable to do this because he felt an amazing spark with her he just didnt with me. that he'll make time to see her every month or for her to come over evry month or so- they are both students on full time courses.
What the heck is going on here? He is very clingy and loves being WITH people I think a LDR would kill him.
What do you guys think? viable or not?

Who knows if it is viable? It's not your problem. YOu need to accept that things are over with this guy, and move on. Do the "no contact" route. It's the best way.

Also, you entitled this thread "he left me for someone better".... I just want to say that she may not be better than you - just better FOR HIM. The guy who is right for YOU is out there somewhere... just be patient.

Maybe you should think of this as one of the greatest gifts in your life so far!Just try to imagine that you got married and you had a couple of lovely(at least from your side) children together and then one sunny day -Honey, I'm leaving you because I've found something better on Skype?!WTF?!?You kick him , forget him ,and you'll find someone who deserves your time and attention more than this crab(yep crab,not crap)!And as Vashti said 'better' probably means dumber, fatter or hairier* I know there is no word like this but it sounds good.... Their LDR will definately crush his spirit and he will start to remember what he had lost,but it will be too late!Thank you!
