The fact that you were deeply in love with her suggests that you aren't in a position where you can see the facts of the situation clearly.
Do you think it's a good idea to update based on that understanding of the situation?
Well, I've asked myself this for a long time. Sure I was deeply in love, but for what I could see all my behaviours were reciprocated. Also other people (besides her friends, apparently) were surprised (ranging from very surprised to downright furious) for her 'change'. I still don't know how much I could have foreseen this in advance, but this doesn't change the fact that I must be a lot more aware the next time.
