Anger and pain are strange phenomenon. As much as we hate to feel these emotions, they protect us and allow us to release a lot of pent up negativity that arises when a relationship ends.
Reading between the lines and despite your stance, it's plain to see that your hurt and angry over this. Outwardly you want her to see that your not bothered but really you are suffering. It is normal and will pass.
It also isn't true that all men 'go crawling back'. In the great span of things, I am sure there are a great deal of people, both men and women who never go back and possibly an equal amount who do. Maybe you hope that she expects you to go back so that you can snub her. Wanting some vindication is also normal when you have been hurt.
You have two ways to go. Either try to reconcile with her or pick up your life and walk...it's as simple as that!!!
Best of luck to you and I hope you recover soon xxx
