Bad Decision Ruins a Friendship
I am friend with a man with whom I work. We spend a lot of time together and recently became intimate. This was against my better judgement as he is married. I feel very guilty about that. The thing is that it stopped abruptly and I felt rejected. Again, any normal person would have thanked god and walked away. But he has started to talk about another female and I can see him treating her like he treated me before our encounter(s). I am feeling jealous. Again, better judgment tells me I have nothing to be jealous of in the first place. So I feel rejected, jealous and am worried that we will never be able to go back to being friends again. Or were we only friends so he could put another notch on his belt? How can I move on and forget this guy? I still want to be friends with him. But cannot find a feasible or rational approach to bridge the gap over what we have done. I also worry that he hates me. Even though he still goes out of his way to do stuff. But only marginally now. I am so confused. Any guidance on how to affirm myself and gain back myself confidence would be very helpful.
Thanks.
