It sounds like she is pretty serious about ending the relationship. There could be many reasons why it ended but I would say after 8 years it must be something pretty big.
I know your hurting but you need to honour her wishes and give her space at this time. By constantly bugging her and sending her cards and flowers, you will interrupt her emotional thought processes and she won't thank you for it. It's acceptable when you first break up
(lord knows you need a shot at putting things right) but if she isnt responding or is asking for space then you need to withdraw.
Acting with dignity always reaps rewards in the long run.
For your heartache you will need to gather your friends and family for support. Grieve and cry if you have to but try to keep busy to occupy yourself through the initial few weeks to come. Try not to be a hermit, seek nights out with your friends.
I am so sorry your going through this, it's going to be painful but be dignified in your sorrow and you will come shining through.
with love

I think by what you have wrote that your relationship with this girl has been rocky pretty much from the start.
Only a year in and you broke her trust, she must have had really big feelings for you to move past that and try again with you. 8 years is an awful long time to just throw away. But you have to say to yourself, is she really happy with you? are you truely happy with her?
People do not just break up for no reason, you should try and look at the reasons she has given you to why this relationshiop has broken down. Any relationship is worth fighting for, i am not saying you should just walk away, it sounds like you are really making an effort with the flowers balloons etc. But maybe you could write a letter to her, tell her all the things you love about her, and all the things you miss, when you write this letter, don't talk about yourself and your own needs, put her first. Ask her to write back to you and explain why she has decided to call it a day. Try and get to the bottom of all the reasons she has decided to end your relationship, maybe then you will understand a little bit better and you may be able to work on the information you find out, if you cant at least you will know why and it may help you let go.
Good Luck

Actually you have to start doing the opposite of what you expect. Agree with her. Tell her she is probably right and you should be apart.
She doesn't want a clinging, needy relationship. She actually wants the person she met eight years ago. You need to set her free so she can come back to you.
So stop the flowers and letters. Show that you are independent and soon you will be able to turn things around.
