Did I completely embarrass myself in front of my dorm crush or am I overthinking this?

So I’m staying at a different uni temporarily for about 2 months to focus on research work, and I only have around a month left. There’s this guy in my dorm that I started finding really cute a few weeks ago, and I genuinely cannot tell if I’ve been subtly flirting or fully humiliating myself.

We’ve had constant eye contact for weeks now. Like every time we pass each other, we notice each other. He also tends to walk really close to me or kind of position himself near me, and I honestly got the feeling he found me attractive too. ( we have never spoken)

The issue is that I think I’ve made it VERY obvious that I like him.

Recently at dinner, I sat kind of behind him (not directly, but like two tables away facing his back), and I think his friends noticed. At one point he literally turned around to look at me and were smiling/laughing, and I immediately felt like I looked insane. ( i might have done this 2-3 times)

Then later that night I went walking on the track after dinner (which I usually do), and he and his friends were there too. I’m pretty sure one of his friends saw me first and nudged him to look at me and they were both smiling/laughing i think it looked like i went there for him (which i did). Then later while I was on a call, his friend and him were walking by and his friend noticed me and nudged him, both of them walked right in front of me

A couple days later I went to eat before him so i sat first, when him and his friends came in they sit a few tables ahead of me and he was facing me.

At this point I feel like:

  1. He knows I like him.

  2. His friends know I like him.

  3. I may have accidentally become a running joke in this friend group 😭

The confusing part is that he still hasn’t actually started a conversation with me. I feel like I’ve already given enough signals and the ball is in his court now.

But I also only have a few weeks left here, so part of me is wondering if I should just suck it up and talk to him first. Another part of me thinks it would be mortifying because I already feel too obvious. I don't want to make the first move while being the girl his friends and him think why won't she stop stalking him.

Am I overthinking this? Would it be embarrassing if I just started a casual conversation with him at this point?

I think my crush and his friends fully realized I like him and I’m dying of embarrassment 😭

So I have a crush on this guy and I genuinely think it has become painfully obvious at this point.

We exchange looks a LOT and somehow I’m usually the first person to catch his eye when he walks into the canteen or when I walk in. I didn’t think much of it at first, but now I feel like all the repeated eye contact + me always somehow ending up in his line of sight has exposed me completely 😭

A lot of times in the canteen, I end up sitting a few tables ahead of him. Right infront of him. Today his back was facing me, but then his friends turned around, looked at me, and started laughing/smiling. Then HE turned around too after noticing them reacting, and he was smiling/laughing as well.

My brain immediately went into panic mode like “oh my god they KNOW.”

Later I was walking around kind of hoping I’d run into him again, and while I was talking to some random guy, that js approached me kinda hitting on me, my crush and his friend were walking around and his friends noticed me first and nudged him like “oh she’s here,” and then both of them looked over smiling again (in a way that i was stalking him).

The worst part is that before all this, I was actually considering going up to him and casually asking something like “oh do you go here?” just to start a conversation. But now I physically cannot because it would be SO obvious that I already know who he is. Like at this point I feel like I’d come across as a stalker 😭

AND THEN IT GOT WORSE.

Later the guy I was talking to left, and I was just walking around talking to my friend on the phone. My crush and his friends were somewhere nearby and I’m pretty sure one of his friends pointed at me because suddenly they started walking in my direction. Then my crush literally walked right in front of me.

I feel SO embarrassed because now I’m convinced him and all his friends know I like

What do i do now?

Has anyone here successfully cold emailed professors for remote research internships/work?

I’m a BSc Biomedical Sciences student and I’ve recently been working on a systematic review project, so I already have experience with:

\- literature screening

\- inclusion/exclusion criteria

\- search strategies/PICO

\- data extraction and organizing papers in Excel

\- reading and summarizing papers

I was wondering if professors/labs ever take undergraduate students remotely to help with things like systematic reviews, literature analysis, data organization or other such things that can be done online.

If anyone has done something similar:

how did you approach professors

what kind of labs were more open to this?

What are things can be done online

How do I write laboratory experience in my resume/cv

These were the experiments I carried out in my training. Could anyone give me pointers to add to my cv/resume for internships/gradschools. I would like some help with the bullet points since I am confused if I should list all the technique's I have carried out.
