Had a crush on this guy in my class for a few months. Finally asked him out yesterday after thinking he was reciprocating but was just shy. Had to do it online because classes have ended. He turns me down because he's in a relationship, although I do think he was also checking me out at least a little bit. I still have to take the final exam, how do I not be an awkward fuck and maintain a shred of dignity? I know guys handle rejection all the time, I just feel like such a creepy fuck for checking him out all the time and stopping him after class to introduce myself. Shit.
laugh it off and continue being normal. say hi when you see him and don't try to purposely avoid conversation, that will make things awkward. being normal after a rejection is best.

We've only talked like once for 30 seconds so that won't be an issue lol. Mostly just been exchanging glances (so I thought). I thought when I went up to him he was just nervous but I guess I made him uncomfortable.

ehh it'll be fine mate. you didn't do anything wrong by taking an interest in someone and going after them. their response afterwards, being uncomfortable or whatever, is on them. as long as you keep acting normal, you're in the clear.

I would say that you might as well just turn it up. Now that he is on your radar, smile at him when you catch him glancing. What have you got to lose? Plus it might be fun to turn up the flirtation.

I dunno but I'm impressed you asked him
