Coping with a never ending drama queen ex

I'm not sure if this is the right area.

 

Anyways long story short my ex and I have been broken up for a 15 months, she left me and it was a really bad breakup (she spread lies to my family and friends and hers in return threatened me). We haven't spoken for 8 months besides me saying hi if we run into eachother as we work in a Supermarket together so it's common for us to see eachother daily. Last week I went into work and was confronted by my managers saying that my ex complained I was "stalking" her because we see eachother "too much" at work. According to them she said she was uncomfortable and that I was following her to lunch breaks and what not. Yes we have had lunches together but I can't help that as they are set times for me and yes I see her a lot during the shift because we work together.

 

I've been informed I need to stay clear of her, ask a a manger everytime for permission to go on lunch and to go anywhere in the store besides my area. Now I understand she may have a hard time seeing me (I find it awkward also) but geez it's time to move on. Its been a year and a half nearly and I can't stand this drama anymore. I don't know what to do, I feel so trapped and isolated at work and I feel like everyone is taking her side with this. What do I do ? I can't quit because I need this job to survive but I'm also struggling emotionally becAuse now everyone thinks im stalking her because of her complaints. Any advice or tips ? Is talking to the ex about this a bad idea ?

 

 

Ps: I have a gf and am happy but this drags me down and makes work so uncomfortable for me.

 

Thank you so much for your advice, comments and time.

I would try hard to find a new job. I know you can't quit but you should at least be looking. You don't need the stress and the faster you can get out of there the better.

Congratulations, you have been stung by female Victim culture. The reality is you have a new GF and are not still pining away for her.

 

Go above your manager or get a new job.
