My recommendations, based on my own recovery-

1) Make sure you're taking care of yourself, nutritionally, exercise-wise, etc.

2) A little girl loves you! Time is just a phenomenon that clouds perception. Who you are is not just what's around you today -- but every experience you've had so far. The love generated between you and her is not lost, but now it must be channeled elsewhere. Hang on to it. It is a powerful flame that can construct beautiful things.

3) Don't give up (in general). Find things that keep you from forgetting who you are. There are a million things in the world that have some facet of the beauty that seems to be reflected and channeled through the eyes and heart of a special girl. If you look and listen carefully, those things can be found all over the place, and can provide a remarkable amount of sustenance. Look at the world how she would and take pleasure in the smallest of things -- but don't lose sight of the big things either.

4) I'm not sure what part of the world you are from, but where I am from (USA), the situation you describe inevitably doesn't have a happy ending. My understanding is that there are countries in which the perception by parents of that type of situation might even be positive. If you have the means to do so, think about moving. If not, there is still hope -- do everything you can to spread love and the values you hold, especially to those you know who are parents or soon-to-be parents of young children. In this way, the believes and values of a future generation will be more accommodating to all forms of love.

5) With the kind of impression you've left, your girl won't forget you. Don't count on anything, but there might be someone you'll want to get in touch with in about 5 years. Your experience together may give her different opinions regarding kid/adult relationships when she is a parent. And if by some odd chance, down the road, that you were the other parent? Think about it...
