I'm 17/f and recently I've been having feelings towards my basketball coach (He's 26). A couple nights ago the whole team including him went out to go bowling. It was like we weren't even there with the team, there was flirting and you know the whole "bet I can beat your score", and random touches when we passed by each other. And it's not just on his part it's me too. What should I do? Should I talk to him about this?
Thanks

Well, it's never really a good idea to mess with teachers [or anyone older if you're still a minor], cause it can ruin a lot of lives, but ultimately it's YOUR life, and I'll be damned if I tell you how to live it when I myself do as I please. Just doesn't seem right. Anyway, there are many ways you can handle this, but only two that I'll go into: you can either get the heck away from him if you find him creepy [when you distance yourself, he's bound to get the hint], OR, you can let this run it's course. If you like him and feel you want it to go somewhere, do NOT talk to him about it. Men don't want to be talked to; that'll just freak him out. Though you didn't describe him much, it sounds like he's definitely interested. Keep in mind his intentions may or may not be good; there's no way to tell. I do have to warn you, there's always a HUGE risk of getting hurt, caught & embarrassed, or that it won't work out. Dating teachers is a big deal and can get you both [mostly him] in oh so much trouble. Good luck with whatever you decide darling.

Thanks for not preaching to me, but I'm really glad for your advice, I'll wait and see what happens but I'll make sure to keep my distance.
