I think that he left that girl, and she handled it badly. And she used all the pain, and anger to make it. So in a way, he thinks that those bad feelings, helped her achieve her life goals.
He probably thought she would take him back if he wanted it, but realized at some point that she has moved on.
Yeah, I took it in a similar way, as well. He may have shared an experience or words of wisdom with her that no other man ever did before, and only because he felt worthy for her at the time... only to get caught off-guard when she makes a big and randomly falls off the map after developing such a rapid relationship. This is a common theme for many artists, I imagine. The amount of crazy can drive so many faces away.

Also gotta remember that the song was written in the late 80's (I think), so communication was horrendous compared to how information is accessed these days. This is constant food for thought and should be respected; maybe under modern-day circumstances this song would've never been created, but be grateful how easily you can track down and revisit memory lane with an old friend... even if you treat it as a breaching of "privacy."
So badabing, a dent was left in the man's soul as classes divided the couple. Man appreciates the memories but feels sorrow upon revisiting them, aching to the thought of her never coming back like the poor mutt in Futurama.
