at a office party, i tried to invite a female coworker for a drink. she rejected me in front of everybody. i felt bad.
she has been mean and making sure that everyone knows. that is the thing.
ah, that is rough. that was a very bold move on your part. but sometimes fortune favors the bold, as they say. i think you will be happy later on not having to wonder quote what if. quote still though, she could have maybe been more discrete about things.
