<human>: I learned that my ex had been cheating on me almost one year ago (it will be exactly one year in two weeks). She started seeing somebody else a month or two later, so I guess we broke up then. There has literally only been a single day since that I don't explicitly remember thinking about her, even though I very likely did on that day, too, but simply forgot about it. Yes, it's usually not the same, pretty much physical, pain that I felt for the first few months, but it still sucks. Because she was such a huge part of my life, no matter where I look, what happens, something reminds me of her.

I've tried to forget about her. I care less about money and just go do the things I want to do. I immersed myself in playing sports, because that was often the only time I could escape thinking about her. At least two female friends said things like, "You need a new girl." and "The best way to get over a relationship is another relationship." I've attempted to date a few girls I've met playing sports, but I haven't been successful (I've also tried speed dating, but I didn't meet anybody who really interested me.). Each time things take a bad turn in these attempted relationships (including now), I feel worse and often regret that I couldn't somehow save my relationship with my ex.

Dating my ex, she also made me feel much more confident about myself. The girl of my dreams (even friends commented that she was exactly my "type", and another said I had just gotten "lucky" after the fact) loved me. I don't know what's wrong me. In almost every way, I'm better than I was back when my ex liked me. I'm fit, dress better, attend one of the top universities in the country--but so what? I feel like there's no longer anything to look forward to, and, while some days are certainly much better than others, every day contains the negative and I'd rather not have to deal with that any longer.

Can you condense the text into three sentences or less?
<bot>: Trying but failing to move on, and maybe failing at life to top it off. I don't really know what I'm asking, maybe whether this is normal or what I can really do to be happy again?
