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

Hey guys, I've been lurking on here and have given some advice but, figured I could use some myself this time around. Here's the back story. Happy to elaborate if needed:

The ex and I had been together for 3 years and some change and broke it off just this past August. It happened for a variety of reasons but, the catalyst was us graduating and moving on to graduate school in different areas of the country. Neither of us wanted a long distance relationship and we could tell that we were fairly compatible but there were a few glaring issues which would make for a tough marriage. So we called it quits amicably and agreed to go no contact and left it open-ended as to whether we would contact each other again.

The first few weeks were pretty difficult but, I believe I've moved on. I'm not really lacking for friends or anything at this stage as I've managed to find a few great groups of people but... I really do miss the conversations we had and her just being my best friend. I don't want to talk to her every day or anything like that. I'd just like to have her in my life as a friend and know I can send that occasional funny article or interesting post I read on reddit like we used to. It's just hard to go from talking to, confiding in, and getting advice from someone every day for 3 years and then just cutting all ties. I'm prepared to completely stop talking to her if that's what she wants but, I think I at least should try to save the friendship.

So, reddit. Should I break no contact? If I do, how should I go about it so as not to be insensitive? When do I know it's the right time to do so? (I realize this last question is hard to make an objective call on but, while I have y'alls attention I might as well ask!)
<bot>: With ex for 3 years, been 'no contact' for ~ 4 months. Should I break 'no contact'? Why/why not?
