Hi Ron,
Unfortunately, you can’t undo the thing that made you feel guilty, so the best thing to do here is to learn from it. Since the game playing was innocent on her part, what do you think was the real reason that you got upset? It’s likely there is some fear or anxiety about something somewhere in you that her playing that game with another guy brought up. That’s what you want to figure out. If you can figure out the real source of that jealous outburst, you will have a much better time of preventing that from happening again, and THAT is what your girlfriend will want… you’ve shown remorse, now she just needs to see changed behavior. If you don’t have an outburst like that again, I don’t think it will be a big issue.
If you do feel yourself getting jealous and upset and she hasn’t really done anything worthy of jealousy or mistrust, just try to excuse yourself for a moment and calm down and remember it’s something in you that’s causing it, some fear or anxiety or event from the past, and work on figuring it out rather then getting upset with her.
