My ex broke up with me on the phone the day after Christmas. He had no time to spend with me and my little boy over the holiday weekend and was annoyed that I missed not being with him. Although, he did spend time with other friends, some of which are old girlfriends. My ex is twenty years older than me, he has a heart condition, is a known womanizer and is very out of shape. I am a marathon runner, fun, energetic, kind person and I would never normally mention him being out of shape because a person on the inside is more important than looks. I have accepted his limitations and still none of my efforts and understanding were enough. I am just so incredible hurt and feel like piece garbage that was used up and thrown away. Unfortunately, the worst part of this situation is that I work for my ex. I am a very good worker and an important part of the company. After he broke up with me (for no other explanation than he does not feel enough love in heart towards me) he wants me to continue working for him. It is awful! He comes to work like nothing ever happened between us after three years and expects me to be the sameway. He talks about the weather and what happened to him in meetings and all that I can think about is how hurt I am. I have been focusing on my work and I do not speak to him about anything personal. I do not call him and have no intentions of doing so, but I just wish someone could explain to me how one day you love someone and the very next day they are like a stranger on the street. My heart is broken and I just want to feel better and move on. Any advice is much appreciated and thank you for caring enough to help someone else who is struggling.
