Let me start by saying, I don't even know what a cunt is.  
 I'm a heterosexual, as most are, and I always live with a similar disappointment. I start to meet a girl that I would want to go out with, but just as I open my mouth to ask her out, I find out she already has a boyfriend.   
You said, 
 quote: 
Of course in typical ex-girlfriend fashion she wants to remain friends.
 I actually find it very rare for an ex-girlfriend to do that. However, don't miss that opportunity to have a friendship. Who knows? Maybe she might change her mind, and come back with you.   
Finally, don't let it haunt you forever.
