I know he's no good for me but I can't seem to shake him

[Pastel]

I can't do NC because we work together. I told him I needed my space and he hasn't texted me or tried to get in touch outside of work. He also knows I don't want to talk to him at work unless it's work related.

 

Anyway, this guy graduated college and when I started talking to him he had moved back into his parents' beach house and told me he was working on getting his life together. He was going to get a new car, find a job with his new degree (we're both 22 and work the same dead end job), and work on saving money for his student loans. What he has done is the complete opposite.

 

He got a text message from one of his frat buddies asking him to move in with them (mind you he's graduated and these people are still in college). He texted me one day and told me he just couldn't refuse this offer.

 

He said he wanted me to come visit him. I was a little skeptical of this and was thinking of breaking it off at that moment. I mean he already had a habit of partying and moving in with his college friends would probably make it worse, but I decided to stick it out a little longer.

 

There's a party going on every night at that place. They like to smoke pot (as well as other recreational drugs) and go to strip clubs on a regular basis. He calmed down quite a bit when we were together but I could see him regressing back to his lazy self. I could see he had become comfortable again and had no intentions of changing.

 

When we broke it off he began to party harder than ever. People at work call him sloppy. He comes to work with hangovers. He's the butt of many jokes and no one takes him seriously. His father has to help him with his loans because he has no intentions of doing anything he promised me he would. He's even looking into getting a new car. How he's going to do this I have no clue. He's broke.

 

So why can't I seem to get over him? My supervisor joked around and said he'd grow up in about 15 years. I don't want to be with anyone like that, but I have these horrible feelings of attachment I can't shake. Maybe it's because he seems like he doesn't care about me or my feelings at all.
