Question
Hi
so i was seeing that guy who i really like. it was love at first sight. But at first he didn't pay much attention to me. We started seeing each other in a friendly way and we eventually got together. I was the one who initiated our relationship. Everything was fine until the day he told me that he wasn't sure he liked me the way i liked him and that he couldn't help but feel uncomfortable around me when we got intimate. So we broke up.
After a while, we got back together. He said he missed me and he hadn't taken all the time to think it over before dumping me and that he was sorry. Everything was fine until he told me that after all, he wasn't in love with me and that he'd rather we went back to being friends.
I know that i must cut all ties with him, but his my coworker and i don't quite see how i'm supposed to forget him if i see him on a daily basis.
Can you give me advice on how i can forget him ?

Answer
Dear Sarah,
Stop being his friend and having any contact with him.  Focus on yourself and then you will begin to heal.  If you allow him to be in your life then you won't get over him because you will struggle with your feelings.  Try to not see him on a daily basis, try to avoid the places where he is going to be, and start doing things that make you happy.  Slowly... but, surely you will begin to feel better.  He did it to you twice so don't let him do it to you again.  Good Luck
