When is it time to break up?

Here's a scenario:

You meet in college. And immediately hit it off. The two of you were outcasts from one group and socialites in another. You spend hours a day together. You can see yourself spending the rest of your lives together. Then as time goes by, you grow apart a bit. Not able to spend as much time together as you used to, but still, the time you do have together is impressive.

Then the unthinkable... graduation and "real life." The two of you try the long distant thing, and it seems to work fine, for a while. You see a lot of each other during those few years. Then, when you both are back in the same city... nothing. Almost two years and no contact. Every time plans are made, they get canceled.

Is it time to call this relationship as dead? But why can't I?
