OK, then you've lost the ability to relate to her professionally -- the point of no return was crossed about 50 miles back. Time to start looking for a new job. Once you find one, give notice and speak to her either after you've given it or after you've left. And don't be a shy assclown and wait too long to speak to her either. Right now is awkward. Dealing with it in the correct manner will make things less awkward, not more.
BTW - I'm not advocating office romance. I'm advocating relationships with former co-workers ... there's no rule, even unwritten, that says that you have to stop talking to them if you leave the company for "personal reasons."
