<human>: Can you provide a brief rundown of the text in within 3 sentences?

Me and my ex dated for about a year. We both fell for each other and loved absolutely everything about each other. We had an amazing 8 months until she her family moved away 10hrs away. After the move, we agreed I would follow after a year. We started experiencing problems when the long distance relationship began. 

The main problem we faced was time. Work schedules made it really difficult and we we barley got to speak to each other. She expressed to me that she was not feeling loved. She was upset that i couldnt visit, and i was upset because she didnt understand why i couldnt. (work and school)  We made up and I finnaly thought we were on the same page. Then a week later she broke up with me citing the same reason. 

After the break up, we both went no contact for 3-4 months. Then we started texting and slowly started talking every day again. We both agreed to be friends. Now we were best friends before during and after dating but it seems like the dynamic of the relationship has changed. 

I have to admit im not over her and have not dated anyone or even talked to girls since. She has dated but often tells me she hasnt moved on but is still in love with me. And alot of her dates go bad because of this. 

The problem is I dont know how to make this friendship work. She gets distant and ignores me when she had a date. I dont say anything to her but it also eats me up inside when that happens. Is no contact the only option here or is there anyway to make this situation better.
<bot>: Broke up with my girlfriend. We are still best friends. Trying to figure out how to continue the friendship without either of us getting hurt.
