By the way mine did it in email too. I know everyone thinks its so wrong but I know him too well - that was the only way he could be completely honest about his feelings.. And I too felt as if I was about to die when I read it. I was at work and I couldn't get up and my hands were shaking. Everyone her has been through the horror. It took me about 2-3 weeks until I snapped out of the misery and started working on myself.
I know you are still in the phase so cry, scream and have a close friend come over for support. While you are in this phase though, do NOT backslide and beg, cry and ask her to change her mind. You've done enough and she won't tolerate anymore. She probably means it when she means she doesn't want to talk to you right now so do not!
