"let's think about things and see if we can reset when you get back", and every time she was like "(y) ❤️" - she isn't even declining outright...

Can you ask her about this? Maybe some other people confused her too (youknow girltalk and friends with 'useful' advice and stuff)
But i dont think a girl that sends hearts is not into you.

But it's good you are reflecting and learning from things.

She said it on day of break up and a few days ago when I was trying to re-initiate after RakeHell's advice. Didn't sound like it was ultimatum. More like a statement.

Play by play in days before break up was written by me on page 7.

1) Basically she was away all June, came in July, saw her as normal, did many nice couple activities together packed into a tight schedule as she said she was going to go home again soon.
2) No real signs of drama under surface - except her being caught up in various family matters and me needing to ask her repeatedly to extend her stay here for longer - to quote from her "There is not much for me to do in London now.. I know you are here, but...." - this nonchalant attitude if she stays here to see me for longer or flies to her parents surprised me (and I should have acted here)
3) She asked me if I want to attend her masters degree graduate reunion event about 10 days before break up - which I declined, very foolishly as I wanted to concentrate on work...
4) Day of break up: I met her in evening after she spent the afternoon with her friend that she invited me to meet previously...

Ok, i do agree with the people here after reading all this. You are very emotional about it. That's all fine, but not helping you think clearly right now. Take a break, do some fun things, then you can decide what the next course of action is.

Right now pinging her and asking her about this is a bad idea.

Agree that she emotionally detached?

Well right now she is still away, I think, and I'll also be away for next 2-3 weeks, so yeah, no point in acting right now. But of course doesn't help to decide in the long term.

When I say 'pulling back' I do not mean going no-contact, I mean being completely ambivalent about your future together and not making any attempt to fix anything.

See if you can have a conversation without you bringing up the relationship at all, just talk about other stuff. Is she still keen to talk to you? Is she distant or guarded? Does she start talking indirectly about the relationship without you prompting? Is there anything she wants to get off her chest? Can you make her laugh?

If there is anything left of her desire to be with you, she will feel it most strongly when you are just enjoying the moment together, without any pressure. But you will have to be able to release all your expectations and enjoy vibing with her as if it is all you want or need from her.

But any hint of neediness or agenda and it'll all be for nought. If there is any avenue for the relationship to continue, it will have to be her choice and by her invitation, as a result of her wanting to continue those moments. If you can't do that, then I'd suggest moving on completely and focusing on your own future.

I think it is best if you mentally accept that it's over, and treat it as if all you want to do is leave good feelings and memories before she goes, as someone you cherished. That may be what it ends up being, but you'll have given her the opportunity to experience the best of you again, and decide for herself what she wants.

I see. Yes, that could be the way to go. Depends on how I feel in a few weeks' time...
