As we got into the car to go home she started crying and mumbled something about this being her last time going out in my town. Nothing else was said for the rest of the ride home between us.
When we got back to the apartment (friends were staying over) she flipped out at me for ignoring her all night and told me to get what i needed out of the bedroom and not come back in.

Right there, what did you do? Did you act stonewall, like, man wtf this bitch is crazy...or did you do any sort of talking or comforting?

You have two options: 1. You can be cut off and let her to her own problems. Which makes the living situation a lot more difficult. 2. Help her out if she has problems, communicate.

I have no idea of your relationship, or how youve handled her depression in the past, nor do I know your level of communication. I would say if you still care for her, well regardless actually, treat the situation with respect, definitly do not invite her out if shes just going to be a third wheel, only invite her if you want her there. I only skimmed OP briefly but Id even say if you wanted you probably could get back together.

I have been what I (and the one friend familiar enough with the situation) would describe as overly sensitive to her needs. Maybe that's not possible in a good relationship, to be overly sensitve, but I would definitely go way out of my way to try to make her happy. It drains on you after a while.

When she started crying in the car she was sitting behind the driver and I in the passenger seat. Her head was turned away from us all and I wasn't 100% sure she was crying until we got back and the friend sitting next to her confirmed. Because of this and my not wanting to start further drama in front of my friends I did ignore her for the 5-10 min car ride home.
I'm off to work but I will be checking throughout the day.

Thanks to anyone that has cared to comment or at least has pretended to.
