Well, be prepared to be let down in much worse fashions than this.

Few things you need to realize:

1) If he's your bro, and she doesn't like him, you're not doing your bro (or the girl) any favors by leaving her with a guy she doesn't like. "I was here first" is not always how things work.

2) You backed away from her too, weren't willing to say "Hey, let's keep in touch" so how the fuck is that supposed to communicate to her that you're interested, either?

3) This will be the hardest one for you to swallow: She did not pursue you. And all that that implies, and you'd better get used to it if you're going to continue playing "The game" we call dating/relationships. Women RARELY pursue, RARELY put in as much effort into casual relationships, and will expect you to do essentially everything that you did not do (which she should also, morally, be expected to do, but she gets the pussy pass on these things.) Things like:

1) Stand up for her to your friends (this must have a healthy balance)

2) Pursue her

You did not get exclusively fucked over, anon. You made mistakes too, and you'd better learn fast. The most important thing in the fucking world is communication, and once you start down the path of blaming other people for shit they didn't do, for shit you should've done, you are a lost cause. Resist displacing responsibility and emotions at any cost.
