I will have to assume you mean nm.  Gromacs does not deal in Angstrom, and these 
distances would be within any sensible short-range cutoff and thus not 
indicative of actual separation.

Sorry, I don't have a photographic memory, nor can I recall if you've ever 
posted your .mdp file, or at the very least, told us how much sampling you've 
done in each window.  It may well be that your simulations are simply too short 
to observe adequate post-equilibration sampling.
