I dated Jack for 7 months.  It was honestly love at first sight.  We never really had any disagreements, he was smart, pursuing his masters.  I have a pretty good job, and make a lot of money for a 26 year old.  

Eventually, my depression drove me to start pushing Jack away.  He could obviously tell, and started to try harder to reach out.  I found it annoying.  I started finding reasons to dislike him.  He was bartending to pay his way through school, so I got mad at him for working late into the night.  He couldn't afford to eat out with me whenever I wanted to, so I started to see him as a pest.  I was getting ready to go on a vacation with my college buddies, and the guys in this country were so hot and I just wanted to sleep around.  I found out I was moving for work and the distance scared me.

And I cracked.  It was the hardest thing I ever did, but I broke Jack's heart.  I've broken hearts before.  It sucks, I'm sad for a few weeks, and then I move on.  

But I haven't moved on.  It's been 4 months and I miss him every day.  I don't know what Jack is doing except when I occasionally check his social media pages.  He seems like he's having the time of his life.  He just got the job of his dreams.  I know he's not dating anyone from a mutual friend; apparently he's had a lot of offers but keeps turning everyone, including men much better than myself, down.  He's "dating himself."

I think I just got scared about how close we were getting... chalk it up to attachment issues but I miss him so much.  I was pretty close to moving on, but then last week my boss sat me down.  He informed me that he wants me on a new project with an old client, located in the same city as Jack.  

I'm not sure what to do... do I reach out to him?  Do I just let him live his life?  Where do I go from here?

I broke up with someone I shouldn't have broken up with, and I don't know where to go from here.

I broke up with my boyfriend of 7 months, he's had a lot of offers, and now is working with an old client. My boss just told me I'm going to be working with him. What do I do?
