We have a rule here at work. Do not f*ck, sleep with,date,fall in love with,or otherwise become romantically involved with coworkers. If you do, one of you is losing your job! I think it is a very good rule and helps keep the drama out of the workplace.

I will tell you the same thing I told my Oh-so-heart-broken-neice, spend some quality time with YOU. Do the things you enjoy, find new hobbies and meet people. Take a few days to do the boo-hoo thing then get up put on your make-up do your hair and forget him, life is too short with far too many adventures to be had wasting puffy eyed. The good lord did not break the mold after he made that one so relax.

The heartbreak takes time. It will heal. Him moving on will be good for you. Take your time healing. When it feels right start to date again.

I have a rule about dating a co-worker. It is a major no no. Just steer clear of it.

And don't be such a sucker next time.

There's no way to do it but to do it. Move on and don't look back.

In time, the "V" thing won't be a big deal. Practically no one these days ends up with the person they first have sex with. It's not going to be a big deal in 50 years when you and your loving husband are retiring and playing with your grandkids.

It's a speedbump, not a tragedy, and it only has as much significance to your life as YOU give it.

So it's up to you. Decide to be happy, and you will be.
This is great advice and so true. When my heart was decimated, I couldn't see my way out of it either, but if you take it one day at a time you will get through it. You need to throw yourself into your work, do things that make you happy, and use this time to make your life what you want it to be. Once you do this you'll realize that this guy wasn't worthy of you and you deserve so much more.

When you are ready to date again you'll know it, but take it slow. Enjoy the whole dating/courtship process, it's supposed to be fun. You are 23 years old, so you have plenty of time to find Mr. Right. Just make sure you know what you are looking for so you won't be fooled again. Absolutely do not jump into bed with anyone until you know you can handle it and you know he is a good man not a player. Best wishes.

Not every man out there is like that. And what your feeling is normal. Don't be in any sort of rush.

Just meet new people. That's the best way. You might meet somebody that you like more than your ex. Then you will forget all about your ex.
