I am deciding whether I should take a two dollar pay cut to avoid seeing someone that I have shared some history with. Yes. We did the deed. No, he's not interested in me and I'm still interested in him. I am constantly in contact with him at work and I am thinking about going to a different area that pays two dollars less an hour. This is a lot of money lost, but my sanity seems more important than some extra bucks.
I have the opportunity now to switch positions, but I'm at a standstill.

Does that mean you are indifferent between the two choices, or you don't like either choice? If it is the latter, then it falls to you to create other options you do prefer over the ones you have stated.
Around 12 to 10 dollars. It is pretty tough sitation though. I'll try to handle it like "an adult". It's tough. It's stressing me out when I leave my job and before I get to my job.

The alternative will cost you $4160 a year before taxes. Or $320 a month. Or $80 A WEEK.
Is avoiding someone you previously banged worth $4160 a year to you ?
If you are even considering taking $10 vs $12 an hour cause you slept with a guy, then your priorities in life are severely skewed.
I dont mean to be harsh, but this is kind of ridiculous that you even have to think about it.
No. It's not worth it to take the pay cut. What if he leaves a month after you transfer? Or what if he decides to transfer to the same department you do? And on top of that then you are stuck with a lower paying job.
If it's that much stress for you, go out and start job hunting for a job that pays the same (or better yet more). Then you will be free of the stress and you will have more money in your pocket.

He took my virginity, told me he loved me and that he appreciated me. I'm hoping I'm not pregnant, but my body feels weird. Now, a week later he's hooking up with other women and I have to be in the middle of this. There is no way to avoid it. It is stressing me out but maybe you are right. My priorities in life are severely skewed. The less you make a big deal about it, the better I feel. I'm truly being honest.
There's no need to put quotations around "an adult." You are either an adult, or you're not. The fact is that you had sex with a coworker and have to deal with the consequences. You knew what you were doing before,during, and after it happened. Two dollars doesn't sound like a lot, but you have a job to perform, and you shouldn't allow yourself to suffer a financial loss b/c you don't want to face the possibility of seeing this guy. Keep it moving and move on.

It's not a possibility. It's a definite "seeing this guy". He's my partner at work.
