<human>: Provide a brief overview of the text.

I live in Las Vegas, Nevada and my on again off again girlfriend who is my age moved to Washington state for graduate school to eventually become a teacher. She will be graduating next summer, and where she goes from there to actually teach, assuming she can get a job,  I have no idea. We used to live together and I did have plans at one point months ago to move up there with her, but, you guessed it, the intermittent status of our relationship prevented that.

She's a pretty emotional girl, so arguments tend to rise up from that, in a lot of ways we are really opposite. She lives her life based on how she feels and I'm the logical type, a mechanical engineering student, I kind of have to have this mindset for my future. But enough with the back story. It seems like every time we call it quits, I go a month or two not hearing from her, only to have her resurface which eventually leads to her attempts of reconciliation. I literally never talk to her again when we do actually seperate, and I always get into the frame of mind that I will never hear from her again, i guess to spare my mind of the pain always wondering if she is even thinking about me (i always figured that's how exes were supposed to behave). I feel I have allowed this for too long, because regardless of what she says it just leads to more hurt later on. Is she using me because she can't find anyone else there, or does she genuinely want to work things out? Is there a solution to this long distance to leave us not arguing over petty texts or should I just move on.

My question to you is, where do I go from here, where has my reddit community been and how have they come out for the better?

I'll do my best to respond to comments, this is my first post ever, please be gentle!! :D
<bot>: Girlfriend moves away, breaks happen, she always comes back (I never do) we try again only to fail some more, solution, or move on?
