TL;DR Stalking. found to be a misunderstanding.

last year at my university, i was put into a team. Alright cool. So I meet up with my team ,we hang out for a bit. Things go well. There was a girl I liked talking to. mainly about the game and stuff. (Note, she is the game artist team leader). So I finally get the courage to ask her out... she has a boyfriend. Alright, no harm, no foul. i tried and it wasnt a serious ask out, it was just a casual joke to see if she'd answer.

Anyways, So I'm getting my food from KFC, sometimes I go to sainsbury to get a drink.

One day A teacher pulls me out and claims I've been following another student. Who is it? The team leader artist. Claiming i followed her down a street. Apparently I shouldnt talk to her to meet up... OK, so many problems.

1. She is my team leader. I kinda HAVE to talk to her and meet up in lessons.
2. That street I went down, its literally a block full of takeaway and mini supermarkets. If she was down there, it was coincidence because, i didnt see her.
3. I asked her out ONCE, then backed off and stuck to game work.

Ok, its a little big deal but surely a misunderstanding. So time passes, I avoid talking to her and ONLY message in discord about work in a server. After a few weeks, I get another pull out claiming the same behaivour happened. At that point, BULLSHIT! i did my best to avoid her (except for work), How could she accuse me again? this time, she was crying. uh huh yeah sure /s

So this time, IM freaking out. fucking stressed because workload and now i got a stalker claim on me. So at this point, now im afraid to do anything because il be called on it again.(She didn't seem to hate me. Like, I was thinking. does she have some vendetta against me? ive not wronged or annoyed her. I did my work.)

So I contact my parents, they tell me to set up some mediation. Alright. So I contact our supervisor teacher, tell them to contact the girl and set up some mediation.

Of course, she doesn't attend. So it's just me and another teacher. i go through the facts and claim I never once stalked or followed her and the only time we talked... I asked her out, ONCE as a casual remark, when she refused, i backed away. and stuck to work.

They finally take my side and say that i never did in the 1st place and it was just a misunderstanding. She never said sorry (look, i get it, maybe she did feel nervous but plausible deniability feels a bit stretched. Im not a victim but she piled stress on me. I could of been kicked from the uni or worse. And my brain hurt.).

So afterwards, things went to normal. We did our work, no more claims were made... when we finally handed the work in... i cut off from her asap. did get to say goodbye to the team, and one of my teammates is still my friend and we working on a project together for this year.
