I have something disturbing in common with my professor I'll have in class
19/f
I was in a play my freshman year of college. After the play, I hung out with and started having a fling with a guy from the cast...and it was horrible because all he could talk about, even while we were in bed together was how great this woman he'd had an affair with had been and how much he was in love with her still. He and I stopped our fling but being in that play really opened my social doors, I started hanging out the theater people, and I changed my major to theater; so far it's been great and they're like my family now; plus my new boyfriend is a theater major also.
But there's a huge problem because I found out who the woman was that the guy I had the fling with was always raving about...it's a professor from the theater dept, for a class that's required of all theater majors and she's the only professor that teaches it! And even worse...I found out that she knows...because he told her all about me, in lurid detail, and he even told her in very detailed terms how much better of a lover she was for him than I was.
What should I do?

Maybe give some free advice about: Colleges & Universities?
If you love theatre and she is your absolute only option, there isn't much you can do but suck it up and deal with it.
Are you worried because it will simply be awkward? If so, see if she offers an online class. If she doesn't, just pretend you don't know. Pretend you never met the guy, and try your hardest in the class. It's just one semester.
Is this women his teacher? If so she could get in serious trouble because of this, so she will probably be careful not to step out of line. If she is mean to you, grades you harshly, or talks about you to the class or behind your back you can talk to the dean or department head about it. She can't get away with that, and she won't.
Good luck & I sympathize with you!
