Hi, I am in a very similar situation. We both moved far from where we were together. Her temporary, me temporary/permanent as I want it to be, The plan was a few years for me.
She is moving back in a couple of months and it would be easier to have an ldr under those conditions but . . .
We were both providing stress to each other. We both still love(d) each other very much but she said she needed to be alone while sje finishes her assignment overseas. It is hard but I respect her and her need for space. I told her I would very much love to continue when she gets back and she knows that.
So now, I am on hold, does that mean I am on hold???? No, regardless of what happens I have to allow myself move on.
I know it is hard but it is better in either case it is better. If she comes back I have moved on and will be past the petty disagreements we were having. If she doesn't come back I move on as well.
If she is the person that is so great and wonderful that I fell in love with, then if I move on, she will be perfectly capable of making me fall in love with her again.
My point is, you guys are broken up right now. Yes there may be something down the road, but you have to move on now. If you don't move on and grow and take care of yourself then you will sabotage any chances you have of getting back together down the road by holding on to the past.
Basically I am saying is you are not "in limbo", you are not "on hold" you are sure, you and him are over. There is still love and you two might revisit it in the future but for right now you are over.
