She will eventually realize that she has lost "the game" and find a new "victim" to ruin bc she will think she has lost the upper hand with you.

It might sound petty, but as long as you're up front and honest with the person you're with about every aspect of your life and situation there will be no harm. Also, who knows... it could turn into something amazing!
That's one of the more difficult parts I am dealing with throughout all of this. The overwhelming feeling of game playing on her part. I don't subscribe to that, at all. You love someone and want to be with them then you make effort. You don't turn it into a game of who has the most control, who is winning the break up game or "fighting the battle of who could care less". But since these are the parameters I will have to play along at least where work is concerned in order to pretend like I don't care, ignore, avoid, and maintain my dignity. At all costs I don't want work involved but if the antics continue or escalate something will need to be said. What? I don't know. A fling isn't up my alley as I am emotionally still reeling from this and how I am being treated but I have begun reading up on some BDP websites and traits and it seems pretty clear to me what is going on. Unfortunate and as hurtful it still is. Going to talk with my therapist about it and ask for positive coping mechanisms to handle what is happening at work so it doesn't spill over. The best, I feel, I can do is continue to ignore at all costs and not even look in her direction. I am hoping she will get the hint, move on, and wreak havoc in someone else's life. Granted I don't want anyone to go through this but I just need it off my plate now and need to be able to move on and heal.

Thank you, again. These forums have been a huge help to me.
