TIFU by realizing I ghosted a cute bartender

I just started a new serving job at a brand new sports bar in my college town, and we are still actively hiring people just about every day. We hired this new bartender, who I met yesterday, and I thought he was absolutely adorable, and somehow he knew my name without me having time to really introduce myself. At the time I had assumed it was because he probably heard my other co workers say it, and I still think this is probably the case. I hadn’t introduced myself to him because I had stuff to do the minute I walked in, and he had a customer at the bar. During his shift yesterday, he had mentioned that he was in college and was in a frat that I didn’t particularly like when I was in college.

Earlier today, I was talking to one of my friends, and the topic of me talking to a guy in that frat a few months ago came up. I laughed it off, and couldn’t remember his name. We had matched on tinder and talked there for a while, and he had added me on snap. I went back to see if I had the conversations, but I had since deleted tinder so I don’t have the conversations anymore. We had snapped for a bit, but I had ended up getting really busy with a lot of unfortunate life stuff, and a new primary job and I ended up ghosting him. At that time I had pretty much ghosted everyone. I dropped all my streaks with everyone, not just him. I feel terrible about it, but I have no idea if he even remembers or cares. One of my friends said that if he really cared or was any form of interested he would have brought the fact that we had a talking stage up. We seemed to get along just fine yesterday, with me helping him close. He even put a food order from the bar in under my name so that I would get the tip instead of him. A sick twisted part of me is hoping that there’s a chance he’ll forget that I ghosted him and gives me another shot, but I doubt that’ll happen.

TL;DR I started working with this really cute bartender only to realize I had ghosted him a few months ago when life got tough.
