I know these things are hard when you are shy, but I don't believe you've blown it, she's still on the scene after all and giving every indication she likes you.
Best of luck to you.
PS - As regards your shyness, she may well find that attractive, lots of women do, so just be yourself that's the best you can be.

i appreciate that optimism, thanks
but i'm really not sure that she feels that way now. it's all just different than it was. and i get that the window is likely closed and that she's come to think that i'm not into her, which makes complete sense from her perspective.
i feel like i need to offer some explanation as to why i was tentative, and that i can't just suddenly come out now and say i have feelings for her. i'm very, very guarded and slow to let people get close, and that was all part of this as well. but if i offer that as my explanation, i can't see that making me more appealing to her as something more than a friend. my gut's telling me to be honest and hope she'll be understanding.
we've planned to get together tomorrow after work, though i've had an urge to call before that. but i'm going to try to wait until i see her before getting into this.
