So my ex gf broke up with me and we are in same work place. I said okay no problem and I just act normal and nonchalant. She acts weird around me like actively avoids me and I make light convo here and there whenever we are around. Just don't get why she is acting weird when she broke up with me and wanted to stay as friends.
Well I guess by now you know why people have a rule not to date co-workers. Many employers forbid it.
Your ex just did not want hard feelings so she told you to be friends. It made it easier for her to tell you bye. She didn't really expect to be talking to you. I suggest you avoid her like she is doing with you. Or find a new job and don't repeat.

Find yourself another girl ASAP and go get laid. You still thinking about her is worrying that you may get sucked into her tricks.

Lean in... Make it impossible to be avoided. You don’t have to be a jerk but you can force the issue.

Because she probably doesn't really want to be friends or maintain contact with you, but she doesn't really have a choice because you two work together.
Asking to "be friends" after a break-up is often code for "let's remain civil and polite to each other".
You let it go, be civil, professional, and courteous... she will either never be more than just a coworker OR she will be the one to initiate that she wants to maintain a platonic relationship.

Dude,
She wanted you to cry, beg and look misterable without her.
I’d give her some space. Staying friends means she doesn’t want to be your enemy, but no chit chat, just nod and acknowledge when you see her, and that’s it.

Why don't you ask her? Just tell her you're confused by her behavior, because she said she wanted to be friends. Ask her what she meant by "friends", since her behavior has kind of been the opposite of how friends treat each other.
How could things possibly get any worse than they are now, just by asking for clarification?
