Kiss with a colleague

    So I kissed a guy I work with on a work night out after quite a few drinks... My memory from the night is pretty hazy in parts but I think I initiated the kiss. From what I recall he made sure nothing happened other than a kiss and that I went home alone, etc.
    I'm sure if he wanted he good have twisted my arm and got a bit more than a kiss - I don't know was he just not interested or was he being gentlemanly?! I kind of fancy this guy but I find being around him really awkward...I know I need to just snap out of it but I feel so self conscious when we are around each other. My go to move after we kissed was to keep my distance and I suppose pretend it never happened...so as a result we haven't spoken much since that night. Just a couple of awkward conversations...
    Not many people in the office know...just a couple of mutual friends so it's not like it's a big deal or a gossip topics as such - I don't think anybody else really cares!!
    I don't really know where to go from here...I'm getting pretty sick of the my awkwardness and also kind of pissed off that am wasting what potentially could be a bit of fun between us or something! Any suggestions on what I should do?!!
    I know everyone thinks coupling up with a colleague is a bad idea but we won't be working together for ever...just a few months so there won't be any long term issues I guess.

    He might really like you and didn't want to scupper things by you drunkenly falling into bed with him. Or perhaps he was pre-empting the awkwardness in the office the next day.

    Who knows. If you want to find out, you're going to have to get passed your discomfort and at least have a conversation with the guy. Be a bit brave! It's not the hardest thing to do in the world and the result might make it worth it ;)

    If you initiated the kiss then he knows you like him, so wait for him to make the next move. If he doesn't then just forget about him and carry on like nothing happened.

    Ridiculous.

    OP if you like him then just ask him out. That's the only way you're going to get a definitive answer for sure. The fact that you've kept your distance since might lead him to believe you regret what happened.
