How can I get over my ex... serious help please

Like the title says I need some serious advice on what I can do to move on with my life...

So ill briefly explain my situation I'm 22 years old male, I have pretty good job, finished 2 years of junior college and I finally moved out of my parents house and got a place of my own. While I was in junior college, I pretty much fell in love with my ex. I met her through language exchange program and she was an international student and we had chemistry together and eventually engaged in relationship. Everything was great.. It really felt like I clicked with her very well, I loved everything about her at the time. Then about 2 months after we've been dating, she tells me one day that she will go visit her friend in canada for 10 days, I had no reason to tell her not to go and I didn't mind her too much about visiting her friends. I really did not notice anything suspicious nor strange about our relationship. When she had came back, she expressed her love to me alot and I just thought that she missed me and that was it. Then another month after she had visited her friend in canada, she tells me that she got invited to some IT convention in LA and she will spend some time with her other friends for couple days as well. She was gone for 6 days that time..... After she had came back I told her that next time I'll go as well and that if she would let me know in advance I will be able to take days off to go on vacation with her . I had no suspicion of her cheating on me. she would call me every chance or sends me txt msg telling me how much she love me and I really believed her. Then I moved out of my parents house and got a place of my own and I wanted her to live with me. She didn't agree or disagree but then she would talk more about negative side of living together. anyways she brings up another trip by herself and this time it really pushed it to the edge. we argued and I asked her whole bunch of questions and I kept asking her if she had another man and that I will follow her this time to see where she would go. After talking and whole ot of arguement, she confessed to me that she's been prostituting on and off for about 1 year. She said her family can't help her out financially. I knew she wasn't rich, but I never thought that she needed money that much, she never complained too much about money, never asked me to buy her anything special, I never had thought of our relationship was in financial crisis. Then there I was , almost speechless, I felt like someone had hit
my head with hammer, I dont know if I felt sad, angry or depressed or shocked. I started to lose my mind, I didn't felt like asking her anymore questions and I told her that our relationship was over.

I went home and thought over and over about how this can be true. I didn't know what to do, I didnt want to do anything, I had no appetite. I didnt feel like going to work so i call out sick. I didnt pick up her calls, I was all alone I didnt want to tell anyone about this so I kept it all to myself and I really am losing my mind, I still love her very much, She's gone on her "vacation"
I know alot of people say time will let everything be okay but right now I need to do something because without her I feel empty and I just can't picture her having sex with other guys for money that just eats my heart out from inside. Does anyone have advice on how I can deal with this situation? I'd really appreciate it.

Perhaps it would be helpful for you to understand the stages of grieving (and the possible experiences of shock, denial, anger, bargaining, guilt, depression, acceptance, and resolution) - you might experience any of these in any order. It takes time to get over the loss of a relationship. Her decision to be involved in prostitution is probably complicated. And may be risky is many ways. Have you got yourself checked out for STIs? Yes, a person can expect to feel empty upon ending a relationship. If she is involved with other guys - then it's a reality for you to accept.

Holy crap!!! That sounds like a nightmare!! I understand your shock and heartbreak. Sounds like you could process that for a year and still be dumbfounded. Clearly she has some serious troubling issues. It is interesting that she told you and didn't lie. Maybe you were a surprise to her and she didn't expect to find love, like she was caught up in something that is destructive to her soul and then you came along and she doesn't know how to get out of the lifestyle she is in.......there is more to this sad girl than you know, but she is lovable, though you may need to step back and see what is best for you

I know this may sound like dumb advice, but find something to keep your mind busy. Spend time with friends or get involved in some sort of project, whatever keeps you distracted from your pain until your heart has time to heal. I know it's hard to do, but the more you dwell on your pain, the worse it hurts. I know because I tend to let my mind obsess over things that hurt me & the wounds never heal when I do! I'm sorry for what you are going through!
