I would wait out this relationship with the other guy. she sounds like she's not even that invested in it, as she said she didn't care what happens in it. I think she saw him as a sort of, refuge from the troubles she was having with you but when she saw you kind of getting your act together was thrown off and I think is conflicted with you.
Your persistence is not the way to go though, yes, it may aggravate her relationship with her new guy, but it may also backfire and make her need more time post-breakup with this other guy, whereas, on her own she may realize she's made a mistake, this guy isn't all that he made himself out to be everyone has flaws and at least she knows yours and that you're working on them.
Although it sounds horrible, you need to show that you're willing to wait and be that fallback guy...it shows you're reliable, dedicated to her, and that you care about her still. this will mean a lot to her as she sorts through her feelings. really, she's not being fair to the other guy either; she definitely needs to figure all this out by herself, with no guy influence, but HEY she's not the one here for advice :). anyway, I have a good feeling that it definitely could still work your way. just send her something saying hey i'm sorry i've been sending you so much stuff, i just wanted you to know i care and i will back down i don't want to jeopardize your happiness (cause, really, you're causing a lot of stress on her like this and if it were me I'd push you away further cause I wouldnt' want to deal with extra stress in my life--NOT the way to go!!!) i'll always be here for you as a friend, and as someone who loves you. giving her that sense of security and support even in bad times--her time of turmoil--is the most you can do for her, and your relationship with her.
