TIFU by taking my girlfriend on an expensive date for her birthday and she broke up with me on our way back.

My now ex girlfriend and I have been dating for a few months and it was going great. Her birthday was yesterday and a few days before she told me that she wanted to go to this expensive restaurant that she has always wanted to try. I love her and wanted to make her birthday special so I agreed.

We got to the restaurant and had a pretty good time despite the fact that she ordered some of the most expensive items on the menu. I just enjoyed the fact that she seemed to be enjoying herself. She was taking lots of pictures of the food, the flowers I got her and everything. She told me that it was the best birthday she has ever had and that none of her ex boyfriends had ever made this much effort on her birthday.

This made me feel pretty good because I was anxious about doing everything right so that she has a good time. On our way back she thanked me and told me that I am a really good guy and she a great time today but she doesn't think that this relationship will work and wants to break up. At first I thought she was just playing around until I realized that she was serious.

I asked her why and she said that she is just not attracted to me, she tried but it's just not there and she doesn't want to string me along as it would be unfair to the both of us. So anyway we had an awkward ride back while the driver tried making cheerful conversation.

TL;DR I took my girlfriend out on an expensive birthday date and she broke up with me on our way back and the driver heard all of it and tried cheering me up.

EDIT: I decided to text her and asked her if she could please reimburse me for her part of the meal as it's only fair and she blocked me after reading the message.
