I understand how hard the hit must feel, and excuse me if I sound overly-optimistic, but I dont think this means you wont be able to see each other again.

I strongly believe you should talk with her about this. I know that you might not end up on the same page, and it may be a bit sudden, but everything has been and it's better to try than to let go of the chances.

Even if it's not an easy thing, you can stay in contact, maybe even have a long-distance relationship (it's not ideal, but a possibility). Also, given time and if things go well, one (or both) of you could move to be together.

Whatever the outcome, I advice you to share your feelings with her. I think that you'll regret closing that door beforehand more than taking your chances and finding out what happens next.
