Guy who promised me the world dumped me. We work together it's awful.
He ends it then text saying I love you.

So I went no contact last week and he text me all day constantly I give in and he went on to tell me that we can still be friends.

At work today he kept coming in my office trying to be friendly like nothing happened. I can't even look at him and I just crumble. Tonight he came wouldn't leave me alone said come on can't we get alone. I said leave me get over you. Anther co worker walked in and he wouldn't leave so I said fine I will leave.

I forgot my mobile so I went bk and he was stood in my office and said why would you embarrass me like that. I just stayed quite with tears running down my face.

Then 15 mins later he text me saying I've had advice I won't go any were near you I will just contact you over email.

He ended it. Then wants to be friends and because it's too painful he's awful to me. I feel so down

I don't understand what he's doing

What’s that karma saying ...

@Sparechange

He’s always been an arsehole, you were just ok with him being an arsehole to someone else.

This a million times

You know he strings women along because you’ve been encouraging and enjoying watching it happen to someone else hoping you would benefit from it

Now the shoe is on the other foot and it’s you on the receiving end of what he was dishing out to his poor poor partner, you’re acting shocked and hurt?

I am just about certain that OP is married herself too (there have been very similar threads every few days for the last fortnight, same story same style of writing). I have to confess it makes me short on sympathy.

@Tenbob couldn’t agree more. Op, you aren’t the victim here and I’m sorry but you’ve brought about your own misery

Block him.if he's texting your personal number.

Was there a pregnancy wrapped in all this?

Oh OP, you silly silly mare.

You were wrong to carry on with him once you knew he had a wife/partner.

Suprise suprise....he then goes on to hurt you.

Move on, ignore him and maybe take some time to recalibrate your moral compass.

Also some sage advice, free of charge from me.... Never mix work and pleasure. It only ends in tears....

All humans make mistakes and when they do I think they are still deserving of compassion from others.

As for the op, it's about learning from the mistake to move forward differently and better. Beating yourself down will make it harder to do that.

Count yourself lucky. It’s the partner you should truly feel sorry for as she’s still lumbered with him
