post breakup behavior. Am i doing everything right?

[swimmer4life]

Me and my girlfriend of nearly a year broke up at the beginning of the summer. she dumped me after finding out that i was texting another girl while we were dating. I feel terrible about what i did, and completely understand why she dumped me. Although i made this mistake, i know that I'm really not "just another guy" and i was ready to do anything to prove to my ex that I'm truly sorry and i love her with all my heart.

Ive done things like:

-Appologized to my ex in person
-Wrote hand written appology letters to both my ex and her parents
-Messaged her older brother on facebook to appologize
-Stopped smoking weed
-Stopped looking at facebook
-Turned down other girls offers to hangout
-Started working out more and concentrated on my appearance
-Given my ex space and have been doing "no contact"
-Proven to my and her friends that im truly sorry and will never do what i did again
-Been praying more and looking to God for guidance

These improvements obviously didnt all happen overnight. I spent much time after the breakup crying and staying home, trying to avoid all contact with people. I couldnt eat and i would constantly look at facebook to check up on my ex. It got to a point where i realized the only way things would get better is if i started taking care of myself, and work on becoming a better person.

So i ask all you people out there, Am i doing all the right things after making a huge mistake? Am i proving to my ex im truly sorry and Ive become a better person? Any other advice on self improvement? I appreciate all comments

What sort of stuff where you txting to the other girl, can I ask?
And....stay off FB,FFS....You made a mistake, dont dwell on it, and just learn from it and dont let it effect your health too much. You seem to be on track IMO.

we started out talking as friends, but we ended up sexting.

O.k well lesson learned then....And maybe dont smash everyone's in-boxes with the apology stuff. I mean they would know whats going on, alot of people dont want to get involved with other people's relationships because
its awkward.....Know what I mean?

I wasnt really trying to get anyone involved, and i hope nobody took my appologies negatively. I did it as more of a way to clean up the mess i left behind me, and get my true feelings out there. I do get where you're coming from but i really only reached out to the people who were close to me and my ex like friends and immediate family

Are you doing all this stuff to salvage your relationship?

In a way i guess. Were both going away to college soon so I'm hoping we can get back on some good terms before we leave, and have some contact while were both away. I still love her very much and im sure she still has strong feelings for me even though she's hurt. Just looking for forgiveness and hoping one day we can get back together. Its just hard cuz college is coming up ya know?
