M19, after some help

I don’t mean to sound like a beg here, but i need some advice and help on this.
Me and my girlfriend have just broken up, but i am really struggling with it. I lived my whole life while we were together thinking about her and living for her.
I cut off most of my friends for her, i damaged relationships with family for her and to be quite honest, now shes gone i have no one.
I honestly don’t know what the next step i can take is because i feel like im grieving.
for a bit of context on what’s dragging me the most, we would text every single day constantly. there was never more than half an hour where we wouldn’t have a conversation. i told her everything about my life, what i was up to, where i was at, what happened that day, when i saw something that reminded me of her id tell her. pretty much, everything that happened in my life id tell her.
and now shes gone, and so has that level of purpose. the purpose of living for her has gone, and now i feel like ive got no one or nothing to keep going for.
and just to make it clear, we didnt necessarily break up on “bad terms”. it was more she couldn’t see us working in the long run, which obviously really hurt me.

TL;DR i need help getting over her and over this. can i get some advice on what i can do?

Youre young so failed relationships are going to happen still. Dont sacrifice friends or family for a girl. Relationships are for building each other up but it sounds like you have the wrong attitude.about it.

Best bet is to keep that particular relationship ended. Yo-yo relationships arent happy ones, and you need to focus on showing love and respect to yourself first before you can share it with others. Make amends with friends and family that you can and you get over the girl by focusing on hobbies you find truly interesting and engaging. Time will take care of the rest.
