I (23/M) befriended this girl (21) at work about a year ago. We also went to the same college and shared the same major. We worked different shifts and eventually, she moved to another department. She still made it a point to see me every chance she could before she left for the day. You can probably see where this is going. I developed feelings for her. Eventually, we became closer and she revealed that she was going through some intense shit. At the end, she was dumped by a jerk, heartbroken, and depressed. I was there for her, as she mostly needed a shoulder to cry on.

At this point, I tried to put down my feelings for her, since I knew she wouldn't be particularly interested in a new relationship at the moment. Then I fucked up. We met up at her place with the intention of getting shitfaced. Drunk me thought it'd be a great idea to spill the beans and tell her how I felt about her. Even asked for a kiss lol. After that night, she ignored me for about 2 weeks, which was actually understandable. I tried to give her space, but made 3 attempts to communicate with her throughout that time. I was eventually able to talk to her and told her that I understood if she didn't feel the same way about me, but at the end of the day I didn't want to lose her friendship. She agreed and said she needed time for herself.

That was cool, until a couple of days ago. I ran into her 3 times on the same day. On everyone of these encounters, she was rude and did her best to brush me off. This may be more paranoia than anything, but I'm pretty sure she was telling another co-worker about our situation. While I was sitting 6 feet away. I am now pissed. I feel like I was there for her during some dark times, so I deserve some respect, even if she doesn't want to be romantically involved with me.
