I can't imagine you would get in trouble but please stop doing this. It is creepy and unnecessary even if they did reciprocate your feelings which by your admission they do not. If you were doing this in an person meeting just awkwardly staring at someone across the room you would be called out and potentially punished for harassment. Find a new crush that likes you the way you like them and only creep on them when they feel the same way.

Honey I was Summer, my best friend Rachel was you. Your story brought back so many memories for me. Don’t take this personally, he probably really does love you. I’m going to go out on a limb and say Summer could very well be gay, I know that’s how things ended up with Rachel and I (although she recently just came out herself). For what it’s worth, we’re still incredibly close 20 years later, and love one another probably even more than we did 20 years ago. Don’t be so hard on yourself, I have a feeling things will be ok.

IF YOU ARE FEMALE:

I'm sure there won't be consequences.

Some people may now know you have a crush on said colleague but that's it I imagine. We can't help who we have a crush on.

IF YOU ARE MALE

I dunno dude, just hope it goes away I guess. I imagine the worst thing that could happen is your boss or HR has a quiet word and tells you to stop doing it.

OP,

You did good, and I'm sorry it didn't work out for you. It doesn't feel like it now, but there's going to be someone out there for you who will make you feel just as complete as he did, and he'll (or she'll) mean to do it too. Keep your chin up, this was a win for you even if it doesn't feel like it.

Mate, objectively you're the one in the wrong here. Your attitude and selfishness need to be corrected. And we aren't your family or anyone who could be biased. If even random, unconnected internet strangers agree about this, consider that you may actually be the bad person in the situation and you need to improve.
