Dont get me wrong - there were good times too, but largely she pleased herself in the relationship and little concern for my feelings. How do I see through the beauty and revisit the high emotion and anguish this relationship continues to cause me to this day?I'm trying to re-assure myself 'beatuy is only skin deep' but the fact she is now with someone else pains me daily...

There must have been some subtle indicators of how she was but you chose to ignore them and were caught up in her physical beauty.
Beauty is only skin deep as her self invovled attitude hurt you and left you wanting.
I would toss out the photos, all they serve is a reminder and outlet for you to stare at them and think of her physical attractiveness. She is not some good woman that got away so don't lie to yourself about it.
You know what being with her is like. You know how she thinks and feels about you...she doesn't. She has moved on and so should you.
You need to let her go, forgive, heal and move on.
Hang with some friends, keep busy; it's a start.
Best of luck.
