He also said that he's like way older than me. Which means nothing to me. But really made me think oh man I really misread the whole situation. I was so embarrassed. I still am. I keep thinking about how I never looked for wedding ring. How stupid. He also said I made his day. Which was very sweet. And cool.

It wasn't even that huge of a crush. But now it's like every time I look at a guy I'm like oh he is probably married. And then I remember what I did.

I feel like I need support and kind words because I'm trying not to beat myself up but I find that it just creeps up on me sometimes and I still do beat myself up sometimes, like really hard.
This sounds like one of those embarrassing situations that's going to make for a funny story a year or so after the fact when you're tipsy at a bar and sharing dating stories with friends. And there are definitely going to be people who have similar stories to share with you, because people overlook obvious details and make silly mistakes all the time. It's human nature.
