Hey there reddit, I just want to say this may turn into a rant but I'll keep it short.

I've been dating this girl for a year now, and I've never felt such a connection with anyone in my life. We spent every day together last summer, just having the best time and loving one another. But Last month she moved about an hour and a half away for college. It was hard. But I've been starting to cope with it better because we have good communication skills.

About a week or so ago,  my girlfriend started to hang out with a guy that she sort of knew from our hometown who was going to the same college as she was, and living in the same dorm building. And me not being the jealous type at all, I didn't think much of it, even though they hang out a lot and text all the time. I trust her and want her to have the freedom to hang out with whoever she wants to. But ever since she started hanging out with him, our communication started to dwindle. She just didn't seem that interested to text, skype, talk on the phone, or play xbox with me anymore. So I try to just ignore it and rationalize that she is just busy with college.

Well this morning she dropped a huge bomb on me. She said that she has started to have feelings for this guy, and that she is really confused about it. She stressed that it was just slight, and that she wanted to fix it, but that she still is attracted to him.

I'm unsure what to do about this reddit. Can you offer me some advice? Some empathy? Some discussion? I'm getting pretty heartbroken here.
