And then tried to gaslight your feelings by saying YOU weren’t committed enough? You may not want to hear this, but please do not continue to date her. This is manipulative and emotional abuse. You want a lifetime of that? Run now and find someone who deserves you.

And - I’m so sorry this happened to you. Been there and sending virtual hugs of comfort and strength.
