To be completely real, as a man, it'd be incredibly difficult to receive the slightest hint of possibility in a situation like this. All contact does is keep us holding on to pieces of the ideal relationship we thought we had.
I've had an incredibly tough time letting go of a feeling I thought was true love, and it didn't involve proposal or marriage, so I can only imagine what you and your ex are going through.
We're no contact by the way -- she hasn't reached out to me once, but i've reached out multiple times to her (embarrassing, lol. not happening again. i know i deserve better) anyways...
I'd try moving away from the triggers - the people, the places, the things that keep you holding on to the past. Your environment keeps you living in a loop -- there's only one way to break out of it. The sad reality? Fri(ends) play a big part in this too. sometimes, saying goodbye to the people who know the most about you is the only way to let go of what you've framed your life as.
I hope you can find peace in the chaos. The mountains and the ocean are a great place to heal.
