So I've had this thing for a girl for the past few years. She was both beautiful and funny and I sort of developed this crush on her. She gave me her number 3 yrs ago when she asked me to help her in one of our projects. We became good friends after that, but I fell more and more in love with her.
I noticed however that although we worked on a lot of projects together (and she would even cook meals for me on a number of occasions), we never hung out outside of work. I lack the confidence to ask her out, so I never did. Then she called me her best friend (friendzone I think). Nevertheless, I was so into her that I hoped that she may develop feelings for me too.
Anyway, recently both of us were assigned to work on a major project by our company, along with two other lady colleagues. It was supposed to be a joint effort, but there was this time that they went out to do some work related stuff without telling me - as planned by the one who was supposed to be my friend. Then when we (the four of us) rented a room in a hotel to work on our project, she kept on dropping hints that she wanted me to leave in the evening, so I did.
Bottom line: I'm really hurting right now. I want to stay away from her. We still have several months for our project to be completed, but this is eating me up and it shows in my performance. Deep down, I'm still in love with her, but I as I said I don't want to work with her anymore, and I also don't wanna create drama or hurt her. So to the DJs out there, how should I proceed with this?
