Dear Steve,
About six months ago, I met a woman at work who was absolutely gorgeous. As a professional person, I didn't pursue it, but we got to know each other because we had reason to work together. We had good talks and she seemed to take an interest in engaging with me. I thought we were starting a great friendship. After about three months, I friended her on Facebook and she accepted.
The next week came and went and she didn't show up to work for a few days. I thought she might be on vacation, but the following week she didn't return. I sent her a text on messenger asking her where she'd been, and she replied that she didn't work there anymore. As much as it disappointed me, I thought that this could be a chance to ask her out because it would no longer be unprofessional. Just before I asked, she sent me a note saying that she and her husband were moving away soon. I was devastated – for two reasons. One, she's married! Two, she's leaving. I've been feeling very negative lately and this feels worse than it should. How do I move past it?
– Disappointed
