i need help! i think i have a crush on my teacher. He's in his early 30s, blonde hair. It's not a crush crush, just a 'i like to flirt with you crush' because i like his wife and his children are adorable. -It's just that i may spend extra time hanging out with this teacher, and he sorta jokingly pushes me and stuff. and we make fun of each other... this is weird isn't it..? im a senior

A 30-something man flirting with a teenage girl.
What ISN'T weird about that?
Having a crush on him is one thing, that is innocent, but you need to not spend extra time hanging out with him and encouraging his inappropriate behavior.
Yes. Him flirting with you is inappropriate behavior, and also he is risking his family and his entire career.
Don't be a part of that.

But not in a way that I would ever "do stuff" with him. That's illegal, to do that with his job, even if you are an 18 year old senior... Flirting is okay, and funn =] As long as it doesn't go farther than go ahead. You wouldn't want to hurt his family, but theres no rules against flirting haha. Just be sure NOTHING happens. That would be horrible, and could result with him losing his job aaannnddd family. [ orphans's advice column | Ask orphans A Question ]
WittyUsernameHere answered Monday January 7 2008, 6:20 pm: He is married, and has kids. He is also your teacher, and that means his job is dependent on maintaining professional distance with his students. Enticing him could ruin his life. Back off and dont let him know you have any feelings for him. [ WittyUsernameHere's advice column | Ask WittyUsernameHere A Question ]
MAK answered Monday January 7 2008, 5:18 pm: What you're doing is wrong. Put yourself in the place of his wife. How would you feel if your husband is jokingly (aka flirtingly) pushing and making fun of one of his female students. Its just not right. I think you should stop. He won't get in trouble with the school, and you won't have to deal with his wife if she finds out.
imi answered Monday January 7 2008, 4:53 pm: this isnt wierd at all.i dont think you need to stop this behaviour.but if you decide to make a move and take it further it could get really weird and complicated because he is married.he is kinda like playing with you or like you could say playfuly flirting with you.if he wasnt married it would have been fine to take it further and there wouldnt be any problems but he is married and it could get bad for both of you if you did .
AskAllie answered Monday January 7 2008, 4:38 pm: I don't think it's weird. You guys are just joking around- there's nothing romantic or sexual in friendly kidding. However, if you guys take it further, then it would be both weird and wrong.
But it's good to have a teacher that is kind of like a friend and that you trust.
Be able to recognize the difference between friendly flirting and taking it further.
