Am I trippin ?

So, I (25M) have a huge crush on my colleague. But being the insecure guy I am, I thought she’d never feel the same way, so I kept it to myself. We were normal colleagues—roasting each other, making fun, and sending reels back and forth.

One day, out of the blue, she sent me one of those cat posts. It went like this: "Ni alu udayippanenkilum" (swipe) "Enikk ninne ishta."

I was dumbstruck and didn’t know what to say. Then I noticed that one of our common friends had liked the same post. Thinking she might’ve just sent it to me casually, I replied with, "Same to you di mole ❤️."

At that time, we couldn’t see each other because we were both on leave. Later, we never talked about it or mentioned it again. Now, I’m confused AF. Did I mess up? If yes, is there a way to turn this around?

As a guy with little to no experience in dating, I’d really appreciate your advice
