I fell in love with the co-founder.
While taking a leave of absence from university, I proceeded with my business alone for a year and a half, and started a student business this year.
There is a woman in the same circle who asked for a one-off job when starting a company. That person was attracted to his own vision and the company's vision, and they continued to help.
After the meetings we do every day, we got excited with unfriendly stories, and gradually we started talking about the worries and personal things we had at home. Then, they found multiple commonalities that were too mischievous to call them coincidental, such as minor hobbies, childhood home environment, parents' age, class structure when they died, etc., and they gradually fell asleep late at night and made phone calls.
The train station is also nearby, and we meet face to face once a week.
When I fell asleep one day on the phone after the meeting, I was told that they were happy even though they didn't feel happy when they held hands, that they enjoyed the face-to-face meeting for some reason, that they enjoyed playing together, and that for some reason they were curious since we first met. You were the first to truly sympathize with the family environment issues, and I was even told that you might have been looking for someone like that somewhere.
However, she has a partner she has been in a relationship with for over 5 years since high school, and it seems that they decided to get engaged after being proposed the other day. Every time an issue that seems likely to break up occurs, they discuss it, and it seems that they have built a strong bond up until now. Even though I said I wanted to increase the number of times I met in person in the past, I was turned down because I was worried about my partner.
Her partner seemed skeptical about her business commitments and her company's vision, but she went ahead and now they seem to be supported.
I had the experience of disbanding teams many times over a year and a half of business activities, and it was the first time she felt this level of commitment and intention.
I have confessed before because I couldn't hold back my feelings. I have very mixed feelings when they say, “There are other people I like, but I want to stay with them all the time as a business partner.” This is because I had never met members who were passionate about the business enough to show their intention to expand overseas, and there were no women who had such a lot in common as people and had essentially close feelings.
It would be nice if I could honestly wish for her happiness and fulfill my mission as a manager, but my palpitations don't stop and I can't get my hands on the business. There are fluctuations between the manager and one student, and I'm terribly lost. What should I do about it?
