JuicyBaby Posted October 15, 2004 Share Posted October 15, 2004 Hey, I went out with a guy for 2 years, was madly in love. Found out he had spent most of the relationship cheating on me so I dumped him. That was 6 months ago and although I'm over the depression stage, I am still shocked by it. I initiated no contact immediately and haven't returned any of his calls or emails since the break up. Well, I just found out he is coming to work at my firm (he didn't know I was working here too now, major coincidence). Anyway, we will be working together every day. I cannot leave this job, I worked too hard to get here. My question is - how do I play this? I really just want to act totally cool, like I have my life together and everything is fabulous and I don't need him. But inside I am an emotional wreck. I am still very upset and bitter and don't know if I will be able to keep from lashing out at him. I also hate that he got away with being such a bastard as I never yelled at him or really got my feelings out - I just let him go. I'm crying even while writing this, so how am I spose to keep it together when I see him every day?? Help me please! Link to post Share on other sites
overseas2004 Posted October 15, 2004 Share Posted October 15, 2004 Pretend like you have been noticed by a hollywood producer and have been asked to audition for a blockbuster film and that you f*cking life depends on it. All the while, see if you can get him fired. Good luck girl... Link to post Share on other sites

Pocky Posted October 24, 2004 Share Posted October 24, 2004 There is no humility in suffering. There is no power gained by impersonating someone that hasn't suffered. I see no reason to try and hide your true emotions. Work as best as you can side by side. Keep things professional and keep your personal life out of the office. Link to post Share on other sites
Quilly Posted October 24, 2004 Share Posted October 24, 2004 Be thankful you found out what a jerk he was and that you're not still with him. Be proud of how strong you are as a person to have been able to break it off with him completely. Be glad that you've gotten your life back on track and are happier for it. Be excited about what your future holds and when you finally meet that special person that will respect and appreciate you for the great person you are. Don't allow his presence at your work to mess with everything you've accomplished. You've got too much going for you. He's not worth it and luckily you already know it.
