<human>: Me and my ex had been together for over two years as a couple, but have been good friends for well over 5 years. During the summer of our senior year, I confessed my feelings toward her and we decided to give our relationship a try. For over a year, things felt great and I was happier than I had ever been before. Her decision to go to school in an adjacent state was difficult to deal with, but we both agreed to try our best. I had full confidence in our ability to work through the circumstances.

During the school year it was tough to deal with, but I still believed in the bond that we had, and knew how I felt, which is what kept me going forward. But where my feelings hadn't changed, hers were. In our discussion during the break up, she told me that about 7 months ago was when doubt started to settle in about our ability to effectively remain a couple. But I wasn't told this until the conversation that was taking place. 

This came out of nowhere for me, and even though I still had strong feelings for her and a belief in what we had, she had lost her faith. 

I'm looking for any advice on how to deal with the feelings of despair that currently dominate my conscience.

Can you provide a brief rundown of the text in within 3 sentences?
<bot>: After two years, half of which was spent long distance, her feelings changed overtime where mine didn't. I lost the person I loved and my best friend on the same day, and I'm looking for advice on how to cope.
