<human>: About 6 months ago i was offered position in my company that required me to move. She had already moved 2hrs away a month before and my move would have made the move 5hrs. We had a good relationship, we had a few arguments but nothing major i just didn't think it would survive the distance. So i broke up with her to make it clean instead of having to go through the slow death spiral of the relationship. At first we carried on talking all the time, she came down to visit a couple of times, i went up there etc. All the defenses i had built up when i broke up with her faded and i had strong feeling for her again. But all the sudden she falls of the map, when i confront her she says "she is putting some distance up to protect herself". Now i feel like i got broken up with lol. We still text every other week or so but it tears me up because its so banal and shallow with no heart. Not like it used to be. I cant stop thinking about her.  Was trying to maintain a friendship a mistake? I don't want to but do i have to break all contact?

Can you condense the text into three sentences or less?
<bot>: Broke up with GF of 1yr. Tried to maintain freinds but ended up getting hurt. Is no-contact the best way to go? or is there somewhere in between?
