I have a teacher that I think flirts with me A LOT, but then again I'm not sure, I feel like he's interested in me but can someone please tell me some signs to look for? Or how can I really tell he's flirting with me, I like him a lot but would never do anything bad. I just would like to know.

If we basically want to see 'flirting' we will see it in a situation. Whether it is really there or not. Liking him a lot isn't a problem. And I would guess he likes you a lot too. Sometimes people just kind of generate a 'spark' with each other. We connect. They are easy to like, easy to talk to and you just kind of feel relaxed and comfortable around each other. Age, sex and/or suitability as a partner don't always figure in this connection at all. It could spring-up anywhere. It has to be a two-way thing as well. If it is all one-sided there won't be any spark. I do think looking for signs and 'tells' that he might be flirting is a bad idea though. I mean if you did, would you act on it? Would it be fair to expect him to not respond if you did? If he did respond, he'd lose his job, never get another teaching job, and maybe worse. Not quite a happy-ever-after ending, eh? So, cards on the table what positives can we take? That you're growing-up, and you can and will attract guys. That growing-up means growing up mentally too, and thinking about the consequences of your actions. And you've felt a bit of that spark you can get when you're around someone who you kind of just 'click' with but you can't quite say why. That wants to be there with a boyfriend too, not just a physical attraction. You know what to look for, then? But mate, don't flirt with him. He's only flesh-and-blood, teacher or not. And it won't end well. [ rainhorse68's advice column | Ask rainhorse68 A Question ]

He may just be overly friendly. I promise you he has ZERO interest in you beyond you being his student. While it's normal to fantasize about someone you have to see that reality is different. He's an adult you're a child and it's against the law for him to have a relationship with his student. Chalk this up to a crush on your part as that is all there is to this.
