How to not feel like crap after rejection?

I (F23) was texting this guy (M25) for one month. (We met on a dating app).

I loved texting him he was so funny and the convo flowed seamlessly.

We never ended up meeting in real life because we lived 1+ hour away and he said it probably wouldn’t go anywhere bc we lived far.

But the other day I happened to be in his city and impulsively decided to go to his apartment. Meeting in real life was everything I’d imagined he was just as funny in person and we connected so well and had so much chemistry.

And then we f*cked.

Anyway. A few days later he texted me and said we shouldn’t continue because of the distance.

And now I just feel like absolute shit. I liked him so much.

How do I get over this awful feeling
