Is it normal i have a crush on my supervisor

Ok the title is kinda misleading bc I guess it's normal to have a crush on whoever you do but I wanted to know other people's opinions. I'm also slightly tipsy while typing this out so it'll probably be shit.

I'm 18 and I've had a crush on my supervisor Ricky (hes 23) since I started at age 16. It's kinda obvious I have a thing for him because I blush hardcore and have a hard time making eye contact with him. He's kind of the same way, he's a shy guy and he doesn't make eye contact with me at all either. Whenever we had convos it'd be awkward but we get along great and he's always super nice and always talks positively with me.

I think it's important for people to know that I work with both of my parents at a ski resort. My dad (a team lead whom everyone adores) and Ricky are completely fine with eachother and my dad is actually incouraging me to date him. Smh.

But recently a guy whom is very over jealous with me told Ricky I liked him a lot (even after I told him not to and made him promise) and it's fucked everything up majorly. Idk if he maybe over dramatized it or something but aparently all Ricky said in response was "she's cute but she's too young for me". Since then Ricky hasn't even spoken to me and a couple of weeks ago when he was giving out our pay stubs he just held it out to me and gave it to me without saying a word or even looking at me. Other people at work think it's cute and want us to date but I feel like he hates me. Do you think the reason he's not talking to me anymore is because he dislikes me or is he just being awkward about it and maybe he likes me back.

I JUST got back from a staff awards ceremony and ofc he was there, while my parents my friend and him were all in an awkward little conversation circle with me a couple others and him across from me I kept noticing him subtly checking me out and the only words we said to eachother that entire night was "hi!" "Hey!" That's it.

Also I'd like to add that Ricky is the sweetest guy ever, before this he'd always ask me how I was while passing by. I feel stupid coming on here to ask for opinions but I don't trust anyone irk after that asshat told him.

    Not only is it normal, but it makes sense as well. If he's really as sweet as you say, it's probably not that he doesn't like you. I think you're right about him just feeling awkward about it. You need to have a good open conversation with him about it. Don't think it will be easy, the talk will be awkward and you'll both be blushing like hell, but it's necessary. I don't think you two have much chance of getting together anytime soon, unfortunately. But there's always a chance as both of you grow older. The ratio between a 25 year old and a 30 is different from the ratio of an 18 year old and a 23 year old.

    Why would you tell some jealous asshole guy about your crush? Don't do that anymore. Be careful who you trust with your personal stuff.

      I trusted him, before I told him he acted slightly clingy him me but I didn't think he was going to be a "jealous asshole" until after he asked me if I was dating/ wanted to date anyone and I said I did then he kept begging me to tell him who it was so I did and he thought I was going to say it was him. So he got all pissy with me, then told Ricky and then apologized profusely. I didn't except it of course.

      And trust me, I'll NEVER trust anyone with this stuff again lol
