J2 break-up fics of a specific type  
I am looking for J2 break-up fics of a specific kind, ones where one of the Js "has" to end things even though they love each other. I don't want break ups due to cheating or being a jerk, or even where they are pulled apart by others or by circumstance. I'm looking for "I love you with all my heart, but I just can't do this" fics. With an eventual happy ending of course! Something like America's Son by TruelyEsoteric or Neil Armstrong and the Wicked Witch of the West in the One Small Step verse. Do not ask me why I'm in this mood; I don't have an answer. Appreciate any and all suggestions!

Thanks for the suggestion. I think I read that ages ago - time to go back to it!

Like The Back of my Hand, by Dimpleforyourthoughts, fits this trope, I believe. It's also long and angsty and awesome. (Sorry for not linking, but it's on AO3!)
