Ive been with my girl for 5 weeks now and Ive been enjoying every moment we get time together. Today I was looking forward to a nice evening with her going out and enjoying ourselves but apparantly there was a snag in that plan. She was depressed over something that happened last night. heres a small history about this problem. My GF was only in 2 LTR in her life, Ex#1 for 4 years who treated her like crap and Ex#2 for 2 years whom she told me pretty much placed her on a pedestil that she could not handle. I never got too much into the details about their relationship...but anyway 2 weeks ago she found out that Ex#2 just got married and she said she was depressed about it. However she told me that I actually cheered her up that day during a conversation on the phone, and I didnt even know about it.

 

Fast forward to this past Friday night. She went out with her girlfriends to a bar, and then she called me up saying that she ran into a friend of EX#2 and he was talking about the wedding and so forth...it seemed like he pretty much was trying to rub it in and make her feel bad, and he did a great job...She texted me "I wish you were here" and I wish I was so I could kick that guys teeth in. Well today I called her to talk and she wasnt answering the phone so I texted her a few hrs later and she replied back saying she wasnt feeling good and didnt want to talk to anyone. Well I did call her to talk to see what happened and told her Id come by later to cheer her up. I showed up later and wanted to take her out to get her mind off of it but she was just so "down" and we just stayed at her house watching tv. Normally I wouldnt mind doing that but she was just so depressed that couldnt say anything to make her laugh and normally I could. Ive never been in a situation like hers before so I didnt know what to say. All I could think of was "Everything happens for a reason, It was ment to happen that you and I would be here" It was all I could think of and I kissed her, but no smile. By the end of the night before I left, she said she felt a little better but I could see it in her eyes that it was still in her head.

 

I just really dont know what to do. What can I do or say to help her out? I figure her girlfriends or mother could help her better than I can, but I cant ask them for help because I have not met any of them as of yet? I just hate to see her so sad about this, because from what Ive learned about these 2 exes, compared to them I am the perfect boyfriend for her because Im the opposite of both of them.
