<human>: Summarize the given text in a few sentences.

My ex and I split up on good terms and still keep in touch occasionally. 

She moved across the country for a job and we decided that it would be too tough to try to make things work (i.e., by me moving out there with her while doing my own work remotely). 

I'm still in the place where we lived together (though a friend moved into the guest room once my ex moved out) and she's been back in town a couple times briefly, with things being friendly/fun both times. 

But 6 months out of the relationship and I still feel like I'm sad/grieving as though this all just happened yesterday. 

Is this normal? Any suggestions? Not only do I feel bad, but I also feel bad for feeling bad. What are some strategies for coping without saying bye forever?
<bot>: Ex and I broke up when she moved away, still on good terms, still heartbroken like crazy. Seeking comfort/guidance
