How do you fully get over someone you have to see everyday? It seems so easy for him yet I struggle everyday and put on a brave face. Some times it all feels relentless and will never end

You have to be strong, I know it seems hard for you, but they are putting on a brave face too. One day, you will get over him and realize that you had nothing to worry about. Be strong. There is nothing you cannot do and you are strong enough to get over hima nd then you guys could possibly become friends again or aquaintences and relish the goodtimes you had together instead ofworrying about this. Don' worry, I am positive he feels the same way you are feeling. Everyone feels that way sometimes; but trust me, one day it will end.
I would try to focus on myself and my goals. Easier said than done, I know. But ask yourself what you want in life? What makes you happy? And focus on those, make yourself a plan, it could be to start a new activity, for example. I guess it all depends on how much you have to interact with that person. If it is at work, just keep it professional. If it Is in a school environment, friends are here to help, let them know you do not want to interact with your ex if you can avoid it. I am sure they will help you.
To conclude, I will say it takes time, the pain isn't going to go just like that, but if you try to shift your focus from that pain to achieve something for yourself that will make you happy/proud you will start feeling better.
