There's a part of me thats telling me to never talk to her again cause of how bad she hurt me and that I'd be better off without her, but then there's another part of me thats telling me to get over it and talk to her once I'm over her cause I dont want to lose a good friend..I honestly dont know what to do :( which btw as much as I wish that I was, I'm still not over this girl..any advice?

Being best friends after a break up is always complicated, since there are always some residual feelings.
Get yourself some distance and space from her. Wish her happiness. Maybe in time you can become friends again, right now, it hurts too much to do so.
Maybe she is dating to get over you. A rebound. It happens. People deal with break up different ways. Some stay away from relationships like they are the plague, others get right back in the saddle.

But idk if she's serious with this girl or not..but everytime i go on facebook, all i see if status updates that she puts ALL about her new girl! And some of the things she has said to this girl are things that she has said to me when we were together...so now idk i feel like i'm not someone that was ever important to her

Even if it was a day after you broke up its not you're business anymore because you both broke up and she's free to do whatever she wants and its not you're concern. Because you both finished the relationship and you and her have every right to get date someone else and move on.
Its best to move on.
