I recently posted another thread about my latest situation. For those of you just joining in on the conversation, it can be explained very quickly.
For several years I knew this girl just on a "How are you?" basis. Never really talked, and I didn't know anything about her, but I did have a crush on her. That was about 4 years ago.
She recently got a job where I work, and I was in charge of training her. Very shortly after that, we started talking. Last Saturday was one of my friends last days of work there, and he started harassing all the female workers. "Strip for me." "Come to my house." "I'll show you a good time." stuff like that, and I was getting pretty angry even though he was my friend. At one point during that night he came over to me and M (The girl I'm falling for) while we were talking and interrupted me by saying "Lewis thinks you are hot." then just walks away. I was very embarrassed tremendously. M was picked on all night by a lot of the other employees and even some of the customers that smoke with some of the employees.
Later that night when we were both off, we started talking on the internet about what happened at work, then she asked for my number so we could text. We ended up texting until about 3 in the morning the next day. The next morning I realized that I fell for her. We have been texting quite a bit lately(afraid to look at my phone bill) and I still don't know whether or not she has a boyfriend.
I never like going to facebook for a means of information, but I ended up finding out that she is "In a relationship". I don't know what to do, or how to bring up the topic of her boyfriend without ruining our newly found friendship. I do not want to be stuck in the friend zone before I even have the chance to do anything about it.
Thanks for your input, and if I am not inputting enough information, or if I am just making no sense at all, let me know.
Sincerely, Lewis.
