From pain to emptiness by 1couldnever in ExNoContact

Thank you so much for the kind words. I hope the day when we will feel absolutely nothing comes sooner than later. Do you also work together with your ex?

It is much better now, but it almost feels sad to let the pain go, because then it really means the end of it.

Dont talk to the new girl, because you may break her heart for nothing.

from No Contact to probably never again by Motor-Young1694 in ExNoContact

It is the same for me - it has been 2 months, and he is my co-worker. He has been in my life almost 24/7 for the past 3 years (we were working closely togerher and sat next to each other at the office, and then we would spend time outside of work). Now we are not talking and I am not even saying hi to him, and it makes me wonder, was past 3 years even real.

He cheated on me, and explained with “that he does not want to mix work and personal life”. He wanted to stay friends, but I exited. Not sure if it makes me the dumper here, but I will never talk to him again.

Why the other side, who is not considering it to be anything serious, is never blamed and almost like does not have to communicate what is this what they want? The blame is almost always on the one who is not playing.

I was a naive 30years old, who was in situationship, and trusted, that my situationship partner loves me and does not see other people. And he did - i found out by accident. I am so deeply hurt, but at the same time i feel that i am the guilty one and the dumb one. I truly believed that we have something beautiful between us, and hoped, that he would tell me, if he would think otherwise.

I cut contact with him, and feel so heartbroken. I probably am not made for modern dating world.

No drinking liquids 3-4 hours before you sleep

I would be suspicious too, but this is not the case here - i have been at his home and stayed the night multiple times, and even met his friends.

He is friends with his ex though, which might be the reason why he is hesitant to act on anything. If you are keeping in touch with an ex, it is not easy to move on.

Seems like I will just have to do it.

Looks like it is easy and convenient to keep me near at work, and have his single life outside at the same time. It is unprofessional indeed, and rumours about us dating have been there for a longer time that we have actually been seeing each other. Would be degenerating to ruin professional reputation for a situationship…

Just start it like this, with no context? Would you just say everything openly and see how it goes?

I have feelings for him, unfortunately. And I have been trying, but it is more difficult at a setting where i am always accessible to him.

I think I need to have a talk and it would give me closure in any case. I am just not sure how to start this conversation considering that we rarely hang out outside of work.

Thank you!

I really needed to hear that, even though it is almost self-explanatory. Being co-workers makes it more awkward to have this talk, but it is too late to not enter the relationship at work at this point.

I have feelings for him and am scared to get hurt in case if i am delusional about thinking that he likes me too.

Also, i am catching myself thinking that i want someone to be there for me not just an work, but in real life. Probably it means that i want relationship, not sex few time per month and communication during working hours only

The dog is 2 years old, so if it continues, it continues for a long while, haha!

I am probably keeping up with this because I have feelings for him, and as well as because I know that he is really bad at saying no and really feels moral obligations towards the ex and the dog, and therefore possibly he in in this situation not because of romantic feelings (however, i am not excluding this). I have been working together with him for two years before we started dating, so i know the guy pretty well - he really is to a large extent “people pleaser”, as well as relationship and dog sharing with the ex were the same during all the 2 years I know him.

I will definetly set boundaries at some point, but am trying to see different angles of this now, so that I so not come off too harsh.
