Normally, that's when you throw in the towel.
Nope, you should have thrown in the towel before you dated her. If she put up with that sort of abuse for a year, she has some serious problems herself. Whether these problems are caused by the ex or are some underlying self esteem issues she has, it still makes it impossible to have a functional relationship until she's sorted herself out. N.B. sorted herself out; you can't "fix her".
How long had they broken up for before you started dating her? to really know that a chick is over that type of relationship you need at least 6 months, probably more. She shouldn't be in contact with him at all. Otherwise it's very possible that she was using you to get back at him.
I'm sorry if this is blunt, but it's true.
