Search Results: getting over a crush

My crush (who used to like me or be at least slightly interested In getting to know me) and I are taking a course this semester. When we were asked to form groups he looked at me a few times but I already joined another. When two girls approached him he started to flirt with one of them very obviously and loudly. He seemed very flattered and surprised by her and said „WTF?“ to his friend when he left the room.

A few days later during the lecture (his group partner wasn’t there) he stared at me for 10 seconds from afar but I didn’t react. Now he seems to focus on her and acts slightly nervous around her but up until last week he didn’t greet her or sit next to her so I thought there was not much going on.

However two days ago this girl chose to sit right in front of me (she was the second person after me to enter the room so there were plenty of empty seats to chose) and my crush sat right next to her and was all cutesy and giggly with her. A few times when he leaned very close into her he glanced over at me but I forced myself not to look at both of them once.

My questions are:

1. Why did she choose to sit in front of me? I highly doubt that that was a coincidence

2. Why does he put her on a pedestal but not me (acting all nervous and competitive with other male students). Could he think more highly of her because she is smarter?

3. Is there still a chance for me or am I too late? They both seem to be dating or at least very close

The guy is Muay Thai class A pro-fighter at the local town's sports centre (Muay Thai oriented). I'm a beginner class B.

I don't know him properly, but I've heard some things about him (mostly good) and I have also looked him up at the fighter's page (he seems to be around my age or slightly older). He's really good at Muay Thai (thai box) and has already won a title and other fight matches as well.

I think I might already have a crush on him. :|

We don't always meet (me being a beginner, him a pro) but when we do he always seems to be looking at me, he comments on the way I do stuff (not always the right way, I have much to learn), he's not rude but he's honest, he's also quite playful, he's noticed it makes me very nervous when he (as an occasional trainer) watches me so we kind of joke about that. 😅 It's hard to explain 😅 My first visit there, he actually let me borrow his expensive skipping rope. He's also always ready to say hi (one time I forgot my stuff there so I went back to this sports centre, I didn't know he's gonna be there and seemed so surprised by seeing me dolled up a little bit in my more normal clothes).

I guess I can't really expect more because we don't meet that often. :/ But when we were getting warmed up, I was supposed to pull him over, he of course did let me win (I guess he sees himself as a gentleman, he has that reputation there, girls said he doesn't punch as hard when sparred against a girl). In that moment, when we touched and held each other's arms, I thought I might have felt something but I brushed it off.

I haven't been with anyone for a long time now so I might sound like a little girl again to you.

I will really appreciate anyone who reads this wall of text of mine and shares what they think.

Hopeless romantic 💕
