Hate to break it to you, but I think you may have already lost her if she really thinks she can be happier with him. She ought to know, of course, that no relationship is ever ideal. But the seed has been planted in her mind that this new guy can bring her a kind of happiness that is lacking from her current relationship with you. You can try to tell her that she will likely miss out some of the things that you do provide for her, but she may have to find that out on her own.

The wise and loving - but also hard - thing to do is not to fight, but to set her free. If you start to "fight" for her love, I can almost guarantee that you will loose. If, on the other hand, you can be understanding of her predicament and trust her to make the right decision in her life, there is a good chance she'll make the best choice for the both of you - whether that is staying with you or breaking up and pursuing this other guy.
