Its not her trying to move on from her ex. The thought of him gives her anxiety. She is just sorting through the wounds he left her.

We actually were in a committed relationship for a year but I just didnt know that she wasnt emotionally connected the way I was.

It sounds like she was trying to keep working on her old relationship and had no extra energy for you. Don't blame yourself and think "well, what if I did this", or " what if I did that"? I think whatever you would have done it wouldn't have been good enough for her. She admitted to you that "no man has ever loved me as much as you did", but she was still too blind to see that and move on with her life from her ex. I know it's hard being with someone who is just right in every aspect of things, but speaking from experience, if someone is not emotionally available then they are not ready to commit and who knows if they ever will be? Time to move on, put the past in the past and find people who are positive influences to you. You deserve it!
