Hi, I (27M) was in a relationship with my senior colleague (29F) for about six months.

Yesterday, I found out that she had been cheating on me for the last four months and was on-and-off with another guy during most of our relationship.

Since then, she has been repeatedly texting me saying she loves me, wants to start over, and that it was a mistake.

The trust is obviously shattered, and I’m struggling with how to handle this because we work in the same office, so avoiding her completely isn’t realistic.

I’m looking for advice from people who’ve dealt with breakups involving coworkers. How do I set boundaries, manage communication, and keep things professional without making work unbearable?
