I've ended an intense fling but we still have to see each other every day!

So I had a brief fling with a man at work, it lasted about a month. It transpired that he was married with a baby and although he liked me, I was just his bit on the side basically!

I had actually started to get feelings for him, so for this reason I made the decision to stop our situation on Friday. He told me that he was really gutted but understood and said it was the right decision.

The problem is we work in the same office together. And our desks are pretty close. I have to walk past him to go out the room and can hear his voice when he is talking etc. I feel pretty upset about the whole situation at the moment and although things ended friendly, I'm not sure how I will cope seeing him everyday!

Does anyone have any advice? Should I blank him? We're both in professional roles so neither of will be leaving our jobs! It's going to be hard :(

Firstly well done for ending it.At the moment you are feeling a little raw, however you wont be the first or last person in this situation.Just smile and say "Good Morning " or whatever ,try to seek out a female friend to have lunch with ,Maybe an idea to look around for a different job at some point .
