Hi Alison
well yes do remember the feeling from years ago - & more recently hurts like hell -think rejection stays with you no matter what the circumstances
the only thing I can say is that I believe things do happen for a reason - no matter how vile you are feeling now things will become clearer in time and whether you get back together or not you WILL get through this time
am sure your work mates will mop you up and make you a coffee
we all have a good cry from time to time in private or in public sometimes , do hope you get through today and have some breathing space later today to chill out and try to relax . wishing you well and keep posting we are all here and probably been there too !
