<human>: We met online by coincidence through skype with other friends, and have spent a lot of time together almost every day since (almost 8 hours on skype or so doing stuff was pretty much every day).

We've met a few times over the years, about 4-5 times per year, and those I can safely say have been some of the best days of our lives.

We did indeed discuss plans for the future and whatnot, I don't think either of us expected it to end like this.

We've been through a fair amount before, and both she and I have been pretty depressed in the past due to the distance (I'm in England she's in Belgium). I'm not going to say it's the toughest and the worst and all that crap - because it isn't - but it's my relationship, and I don't have a clue what I'm doing.

Now, the reason I'm here is because we split up yesterday partially because of me. I wanted to help her make a real, unbiased decision about what was best for her life. She really needs the physical contact of someone there to hold her and care for her - and for the next 4 years (or 1 if she or I moved for university, but that's unlikely) I can't give her that.
So, I pretty much steered her towards breaking up by not trying to convince her otherwise with pseudo-facts like "love is the most important thing" and such, because those don't keep you warm so to speak.

I've severed pretty much all contact with her to make it sink in as fast as possible, it still feels very surreal, but I know if I picked up the phone or typed into skype or anything else that I could win her back. I know her so well and I know what to say.

But I didn't.

Should I? Is this the right thing to do? How should I be dealing with this?

Can you condense the text into three sentences or less?
<bot>: Long distance relationship, splitting up even though both explicitly agree we're the best for each other. Could get her back - but is it right to?
