Hello again, LoveShack.

 

I'm going home for holiday break next week, and so I'm returning to my part-time job next Saturday.. my ex, who is also my coworker, will also be working next Saturday. As is the nature of the job, we will have to communicate at least a little bit.

 

The problem is.. I can't get over our breakup. Basically, he began to ignore me for weeks until I finally had to ask if it was over. He told me he was too busy for me and just didn't care anymore. I have been NC since then, I don't follow him on any social media or anything and all of our mutual friends stopped talking to me. I have reason to believe he's seeing someone else already, though. When I think about seeing him, I get simultaneously really angry, sad, and nervous. I don't know if I can keep it together, and I will be at home working with him for two months!

 

I know I could quit, but I have been at that job for 2 years off and on now, and I absolutely love my boss and her family - it's also nearly impossible to find a part time job that will allow me to return over school breaks, summers, etc. So that's not an option. Do you all have any advice on staying strong and coping with this? If not, I appreciate you just reading my venting. :o

Just don't talk more than the need, unless the reason is special. That's all I can tell.
