My (23F) ex boyfriend (23M) broke up with me 3 months ago. I was pretty blindsided and just absolutely devastated. We were together for a year and a half, close friends for about 5 years before. We also work together at my second job, and share a friend group there, so no contact was never an option. I think he checked out of the relationship before he broke up with me, and I’ve felt like a total nuisance for being upset since it happened. He recently started going out with one of my old coworkers a few weeks after telling me he wanted us to be good friends still and wanted to keep an open line of communication with me. Since they started, he has treated me like an inconvenience for trying to be amicable/ friendly, and I’m just so exhausted with trying to figure out how to make this less painful for myself. I know I’m still in love with him and so angry at him, even though I know that’s not fair. I just don’t know if ignoring him or being friendly hurts more at this point, I don’t even know what to do. Quitting is not an option as I adore my job and my friends there, I make great money and it’s extremely convenient.
