Hey,

im 16 and i have a situation with my teacher.this year i had a teacher who sends me those same mixed signals and i dont know how to take that. in the beginning he treated me badly. i would come late and sleep alot but so did other students but it felt he only picked on me. when i did sleep he would spend the whole class period to bother me than teach. he would throw stuff at me sit real close to make sure i didnt sleep. he also had me stay after alot and tell me i have a beautiful smile all the time. he would make me sit by him and all sorts of things. hes cute but i thought nothing of it. until i started to see him more..he would act all sweet and talk soft spoken to me alone but around other students he acted rude and mean. thing started to change when i got in big trouble because of him. and i went to him and told him i hated him and i never wanted to talk to him again.. and he kept saying no you dont you know you like me.i like you and i think your great.when i see him in the hall way we would try and advoid eye contact but he always smiled and found a way to get my attention. and im close with another teacher that knows him and he would see us mess around and joke and i could see he wanted the same. but he is a teacher so there was nothing i can to. until he told me more than once that in any other circumstance we would be great friends. i dont know if im over reading that or not. if anyone has advice to me that would really help thanks

Hmmmmmmmm It all sounds a bit creepy to me. 'You know you like me' sounds all too familliar and weird..i don't like any of what i've read. This teacher, as indicated by what you've said, is obviously quite odd anyway as a person and his behaviour towards you is very odd also. I think teachers getting close to students in this way is usually only bad news... the fact he picked on you and bosses you around and tells you what you like etc... the fact that it got to a point where you were confident enough to say 'i hate you' people don't often say that to teachers; although hating teachers is common, actually saying you hate them isnt. To say you hate someone is usually to hurt that person, and to want to hurt someone you have to consider that that person cares what you think of them. This is all very bad... this teacher should not have given you the impression that you two have some kind of 'thing' between you, and he should not be keeping you behind all of the time. You are painted now as a 'bad seed', if he does anything odd or bad to you, he can say you 'hate him' and are 'making it up' and records will fall on his side as he reprimanded you. I would not trust this teacher, i would stay away from him - do not say you 'hate him' or anything like this, he may use this against you at another point. He has built an excellent base here for innappropriate behaviour and has demonstrated he doesn't care about you by reprimanding you and telling you 'you like him'. Watch his behaviour;; he has done this before by the sounds of it, and is not normal. If he ever touches you, or sits too close say 'can you not do that'. You've then covered yourself if he ever does anything inappropriate.

SirenaBlusera agony auntYou may be reading too much into it.

Any teacher that would pursue romantic contact with students is a creep. I'm not sure what's going on with your teacher, but "I got into trouble because of him" is not a good sign.
