The girl at work

Hi, first time on reddit. I work in a very busy store, about 6 months ago I openly started asking out my new coworker over text. She is the most beautiful girl in the world, I cannot over exaggerate that it is just facts. I’m shy and I’ve had bad luck before with coworkers. I thought texting would break the ice and be just informal enough to not create much tension at work. I only did it when I was off the clock, I take my work kinda seriously, it is after all my job and I wouldn’t feel right pursuing someone while I’m working. Now, being that she is a beautiful girl and I wasn’t sure if she was going to be seasonal I acted on my inhibitions. Normal right? Normal thing to do. There were some signs she liked me too and I just knew I didn’t want to just be friends or coworkers with her. From the second I saw her I’ve been captivated, intrigued, my heart just glows knowing someone like her exists. I want to kiss her every time that I see her, I’ve always felt like that. Well, back to the texting, she has a boyfriend. I escalated things, I told her to dump him. I every other week or so would ask her out, something casual, but definitely a date. She started telling her bf about me, then I think work started to take notice. She was not having any of my shenanigans. Her bf even texted me, which I humbly ignored. At least there’s some proof he exists. I finally opened up in a really long text, too long might I ad. What?! Expressing how I felt about her, specifically how she made me feel for who she is and that I wanted more. I ended it with take it or leave it and got blocked. We don’t really talk now at all at work unless we have to. I look at her and I feel like my hands and feet are tied and there’s this sinking feeling in my chest like I don’t know what to do, I’m thinking this just isn’t going to happen ever and I’m trying to accept that. I actually gave her more space by distancing myself from her once I started thinking I might be making her uncomfortable because I thought that was the most loving thing to do. Now I don’t know what to do. This guy I work with commented to me today how good she looked and I just nodded, little does he know how I truly feel about her. I want her all to myself.
