How can I get over having feelings for a coworker?

[Anonymous]

I am finding it difficult seeing him everyday and feeling embarrassed as I’m an adult and everyday it’s getting worse and I leave work feeling deflated everyday.
He recently got back with his ex and I respect that so want to distance myself.
We have been extremely flirty with each other in the past and he is always so nice to me but I know nothing can happen.
He is also slightly older than me (15 years older) so I don’t think he even thought of me that way..

I don’t want to be mean to him but how can I get over my feelings for him.

So far I’ve tried some things to distance myself, I don’t approach him anymore unless it’s work related and I keep conversations short, I stopped liking his photos on Facebook/Instagram, he has stopped liking mine and he has stopped texting me.
Which hurts and makes me think maybe he did like me if he feels he can’t even text me anymore.
I also can’t move department or change job either.

Just stop stalking him on any social media and yes less conversations at work will help. I mean sometimes getting back with and ex doesn't work out and if he was flirting with you he may not even want his ex anymore and is just trying. Other than that time will help also going out and flirting with other guys could help too
