“Can you openly tell someone that you are in love with him or her?”

Hello!

Can you openly tell someone that you are in love with him or her? Even if you know that the other person is not interested?

An additional difficulty is someone in my work environment. Because I need to emotionally distance myself from this person, I focus on professional performance. Since this isn’t exactly the best, I sometimes criticize the person. Not in an unfair level, but more in the way I would criticize anyone I’m not interested in or not friends with.

I am someone who is very direct. Of course, I don’t want to go to my crush and reveal my feelings to him. But when the question comes up, I want to be honest. Is that selfish? Will I embarrass the other person or force them to take action?

I have no chance with the other person and I can deal with it well.

I don’t want the person to think they have to respond in any way…
