Well, He threw me for a loop thats for sure...


Question Posted Monday March 5 2012, 11:56 am

So I'm in college, taking care of business, doin my thing when suddenly i start my new semester and takes a class. Unexpectedly I walk in to find that my teacher is freaking hot! He isnt exactly what I would usually call my type ,i hate to sound corny, but when i looked into that mans eyes i was just like "oh my well arent you just one dapper man". So i just thought I had one of those things where you think someone is attractive for like a week and then it would fade type of scenarios. Nope, the more time i spend with him the more my fondness grew. He's a grad student I'm a first year sophomore, but still I'm freaking 18 (in other words young as crap) and he's like 22-24. So I'm not sure whats going on with me but I would really like to date him if I could. But I'm not exactly sure how to go about that.
Whenever I go to his office hours it just me and him in his office and we usually sit right next to each other and I learn but, there were some instances where Im not sure if hes dropping hints or if he's just friendly. Like unnecessary touching of me hands, reminding me that it was valentines day, asking what my plans are for the rest of the day after informing me he's going to a concert, excessive eye contact. I really just want to say he's a friendly guy and that I'm being completely irrational. I wanna say I'm seeing subtle hints because I like him. Im awkward I dont pick up on hints until I'm back in my dorm doing hw. But I can't shake this feeling that there is a small chance that he may like me.
Dont you hate that when you are around your friends you can be the most clever intelligent witty person in the room but when youre with someone that you like youre just like "I like potato". Well thats how I am with him. I still manage to keep my cool but late Im saying to myself "Really, Did you just say that to him. Get it together!” But He’s usually tongue tied when I talk to him too. Just thinking of him makes my heart race. THAT SEXY BASTARD! Just messin up my flow of life.
But now I'm in this dilemma. I dont want to make any moves on him because 1 he's my teacher 2 what if he has a gf… awkward 3 i dont want to make things awkward and 4 i dont want to make things awkward. From what Ive gathered from previous conversations I highly doubt that he has a gf but what If Im wrong? But I don’t want him to think im not interested because I am. Im just confused. What is this feeling I know its not love because Im too young. Should I keep on this pursuit? HELP!

He might be head over heels for you. He might be single. But none of that matters, because as long as you're his student, you can't date him. Well, you could, but there would be several serious repercussions.

Let's say you date him and it goes wrong. You have a bad breakup. Then you risk him taking it out on you when he's marking your work. Then you'd have to raise the issue with his superiors, there would be an investigation, and he would be fired, because it's against the rules of just about every school out there to date your students, even if they're over the age of majority.

Let's say you date him and it goes great. Then you're stuck hiding your relationship, which nobody is good at, and you run the risk of someone finding out and complaining, and him being fired.

There is no pretty way that it could go. You would need to wait until after you're out of his class (and after you know you won't have him as a prof ever again) to then see if there's something there. School is more important than a potential boyfriend, no matter how perfect he is.
