Is it OK to ask my ex's friend for advice?

OK so I am currently a sophomore in college. I was with a girl exclusively (but not officially) for just about my whole freshmen year. We split at the end of the semester in May, and it's been really messy ever since.I'm unsure about whether or not I'll be able to win her back. I'm thinking about going to Australia next semester, but at the same time I love this girl so much and don't want to completely abandon my attempts to get back with her. We didn't communicate that well during our time together so it's hard to get a read of where she's at. So, I'm thinking about contacting her roommate and good friend at school (who is friends with me through her and has no issues with me) to ask for some advice about what to do next. I think this might help point me in the right direction. What are your thoughts? And tips, advice, ideas, etc. would be greatly appreciated.

Ladies please don't be shy! I don't have any close friends who are girls, so I could really use some female insight regarding all of this!
