Does my teacher's behavior mean he likes me in the "wrong" way?

Question - (17 March 2010) 1 Answers - (Newest, 21 March 2010)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I need to know if this teacher in my school who doesn't teach me likes me. I'm being very serious, I'm not giving him any hints or egging him on that I like him. In fact, I wish I didn't like him...it would make life so much easier right now. Oh well - what can you do? :/

Any who, he doesn't teach me, as I've said. He is a teacher though and does business studies, and a few other things. I can't understand why he is so "like that" towards me...I hardly know him and the only times we've talked have been in after school activities and rare occasions. He is I must admit VERY good looking - but I have definitely (I hope) not been giving any sign of my affection towards him.

Yet, when I do see him, and we talk a little, he is always laughing at the most ridiculous things I say, and smiling at me (lots) and always looking at me when he says funny things. When he passes me at school, he looks me up and down (once or twice) and then smiles as he gets closer. He does not do this to my friends, or my sister who is in the same "amount of friendliness" with him as I am. I just don't know what to think anymore, at first I thought (well, I didn't really think it just felt like it) that he was just being friendly, but as I've grown up I'm beginning to think that these things that he does are just a little....well, you know - too nice. He is very charming......just seems to draw me in.

He is courteous and kind, but it's really quite obvious that he likes me for some reason - maybe he wants to be friends, maybe he likes me in the wrong way? I don't know, you tell me.

A female reader, Rainydaylady United Kingdom +, writes (21 March 2010):

The smiling, the looking you up and down, I've noticed that about a teacher of mine too. Except I am completely infatuated with him, whereas you are clearly not.

He has not done anything blatantly inappropriate, he could just be friendly and charming and flirty naturally. I have asked questions like this before in regards to how my teacher treats me, and deduced that it is possible that he could be slightly attracted to me, but wont act on it because it is wrong.

This could be what is happening in your case. If you suddenly find him going cold and distant on you some days, but smiley and warm on others, he is conflicted on how he feels about you and occasionally tries to distance himself from you.

But don't worry, just relax and enjoy the attention, I know I do, if you feel uncomfortable thats when you should start to worry and inform someone, but for now it seems perfectly harmless. You seem like an intelligent young lady, you will know where to draw the line.
