teencrushoffender agony auntI am in the same boat as you right now.

I know what I'm feeling is normal , you can't help how you feel right? You just have to remember the teacher/pupil boundary.

I feel attached to my chem teacher at the moment who I have had for nearly 2 years now. He has enthused me about the subject and I really enjoy his company. When I see him it lights up my day , even a simple smile or 'hello' makes me feel warm inside as it makes me think that he cares.

But the reality is :

1. He's my teacher.

2. He's about 25 years older than me.

3. He's married with kids , one of which is older than me already.

I know my feelings are just a phase and nothing will ever happen between us so I keep it secret that I fancy him, but I guess he already knows about me liking him and just has to push all these schoolgirl crushes to the back of his mind as he is after all, a professional.

I have decided to go somewhere else for sixth form and continue the subject as I don't want to become too attached and needy and find I don't like the subject , I just like him. This would be disastrous to my future.

But if you think you have something special, there is only one way to find out if it is true. Just don't put all your eggs in one basket.

Good Luck in Love.

Hey :)

I fancy my RE teacher, and again I'm not even sure why,

it would be understandable it everyone thought he was fit but it's just me, he wears skin tight cardys/jumpers and he always looks sexy.;)

He has stubble which I really like because it makes him even better looking. But his eyes, they are perfect. absolute perfection. The nicest blue I have ever seen! He always has sex hair:)

When I'm in class he always asks me questions and I challenge him and he enjoys it because he always smiles when I'm around (he never usually smiles) Out of all my class he always remembers my name, and I'm pretty sure he has been staring down my cleavage. I really want to go out with him but in reality he is in his 20's and probably has a girlfriend.

I wouldn't tell him if I were you, how awkward will that be? and all the teachers will find out as well as your parents :}

good luckxxxxx

and the most beautiful blue eyes in the world, he is in his 20's and seems so kind :) Although I would like to date him I'm 13 and it is illegal, I suggest NOT to tell him, how embarrassing will it be? How would you tell him? And afterwords he would probably feel pity for you.

i thought i was alone on this one. i'm glad to see so many other girls like myself fancy a teacher! well, it started a few months ago, when my english teacher kept looking at me in class. also i love love love michael buble, and he likes his music to, and i was going to a concert of his, and i was in his class and talking to him about that, and about what other singers he likes. i've been through alot of family promplems atm, so i started to cry in one english lesson. he took me outside, and asked me what's wrong. although i was crying my eyes out, i could see him staring down my clevege! also he told me he's there for me and whenever i'm upset, i have to come see him.-which of course i didn't. this carried on when we had this health day, and he was running it, and he asked me to help him greet guests, so i said yes, i got at school at 8;20, and helped him. at the end he said thanks for your help lauren, and kind of huged me! i went back to class half daydreaming. the day after that i was in his class and i'd realised he was wearing fake tan. which is really werid. i asked my mate,and she said he's gay! i didn't want to believe this at first. but i did. okay another time i was walking home late from school on my own, and it was pooring down with rain, and i saw his really nice car, and it stoped on the side of the road. to my amazement he'd offered me a lift home. being the idiot i am, i got in the car. but i've never felt so much excitment in my life. i havn't told anyone that bit before. i told him my feelings for him on the drive home, it was alright. but now were ignoring each other at school, which is for the best i supose, cuz now i've got a boyfriend, who's my age :) i would tell him how you feel, but just for heven's sake don't get in to trouble like i have!

KathySleek agony auntHi! I always feel so much better reading these posts as I too feel EXACTLY the same way. I'm glad not to feel alone.

2 years ago a new Science teacher came to my school. He's so wonderful. After, like, 2 lessons we'd always have a laugh whenever we saw eachother. In lessons when he assigned work for us to do from a textbook, he'd immediatly come over to me and have a conversation and a joke with me. He didn't do it to anyone else. Just me. However, at that time I didn't fancy him. I just thought more of him as a "friend" if you get me.

He taught me for 2 years then I was moved into a higher set (probably because of his teaching..ha) and he wasn't my teacher anymore. And that's when I realised I fancied him. Whcih is crap because what use is it now when I don't have him?!

But when ever he sees me in a corridor he looks up and smiles. Or says hello. Or makes a joke about something. Even in a crowded hall, he'll always find me and smile. No one else. Just me. I like that.

I used to go up to him during lunch as well, for the past few months I've been having some bad family issues and even though he doesn't teach me anymore, he still felt honoured I went to speak to him. He was so lovely and caring. And he's not too bad looking either ;)

He's 27. Only 12 years older than me. Not too bad...but he's married. And recently has a kid. That really, really hurts my heart when I think about it. I am uncontollabley in love with him. I know, deep deep down nothnig will ever happen...but sometimes I canreally picture a life with him.

I've got another 2 years at school,I'm probably not going to tell him how I feel, even though it feels like I have to let it out. I'm not going to stop dreaming or thinking about him. I'm going to make the most of what I've got and make memories with it. Good luck! xx

A female reader, mysterious_blonde_lady United Kingdom +, writes (27 December 2009):

I am sure if you spend so much time with him-- he already knows u like him. The fact that he spends time with you knowing this is not a good sign. i wud detach a little and spend some time away from him- nothing abrupt and be pleasant. if he fancies u he will start trying to find excuses to keep you to talk to you. seeing that he is 32 and a teacher -- i wud be very very wary. Also; be aware that telling a teacher that you fancy them puts u in a vulnerable position i.e. if that teacher (even if he likes u) is interested in self-preservation he will report it to a senior member of staff and you will get to have a nice cosy chat with ur parents and a senior teacher about whether he 'made himself absolutely clear'.. Another thing to be wary of-- he has control over your grades he can mess with them, and when u report him insist that u 'iniated things'. Keep your distance let him run after u, that way u can stop things short if they start to go anyway u dont want. key is -- dont worry about him worry about yourself. These things can go really bad. One last thing look up 'sexual predator' on google and read the signs.

good luck xx

Hey !

This website is so good ! haha

Yeah, I was in love with my form tutor all through school, well he was my form tutor for 3 years and then in yr 10 and 11 we had a different one.

We were really close in the years he was my form tutor like he would talk to me everyday and smile.... I didn't actually know i liked him at that point!

And then when I got back after the holidays and had a new form tutor, he completely ignored me ! right up untill I left school ! I started falling in love with him in yr 10 too ! when he wasn't talking to me ! I really did not understand why he wasn't talking to me and was quiet upset all the time, just completely blanked me ! Any ideas why?

Then my brother got to the school the year after I left, and was a pupil in his class, he noticed the surname, and instantly said, your Grace's brother aren't you? then he said he 'yeah, you look like her' Then I went to a football match to support my brother, having no idea he was the coach, and it really threw me, and he started talking to me after the match like- yeah, hows college and what you up to, what do you plan to do after college? I was like why you talking to me now if you didnt talk to me for the last few years of school?

I was completely besotted with him, and if he asked me out now, I would having a really hard time turning him down, I think I would have to say yes just out of curiosity- 3 years later. I still catch myself thinking about him sometimes- i've never been that obssessed with anyone.

Thoughts please?

I know exactly how you feel. In my first year in High School (Britain), I had a tiny crush on my English teacher, as he's such a warm and sweet man. He's in his mid-30's, but doesn't really look it. Three years later, i'm so sure I love him. He's married though, and it's gutting, as I love him so much. I'm not sure you should tell him, like other's said, in case he doesn't feel the same way. But, if you want to do it, you go girl. (:

I have this english teacher, and i cant stop thinking about him, everywhere i go he's in my head and whenever i talk tohim butterflies seem to come up. A few times he's caught me (well not staring) but gazing at him while he sits at his desk marking stuff. He looks up and smiles while i sit in a day dream, resting my chin on my hand looking straight at him. he'll smile and ill suddenly return to reality and blush uncontrolably. My friend asked me today and i had to admit it to her. It's probably just a "crush" but...i wish something could happen, but i know it never could. for starters he's like 32 or something early 30's. and im...well 14...16 years...

I'm really close to him and he is constantly going out of his way to talk to me. It was parents evening today, and he was looking at me the whole time while explaining what the course work was and how well i was getting on. Complimenting me over and over again. Everytime i looked up to look him in the eyes his started to sort of sparkle and i had to avert my gaze w

I so badly want to tell him that i REALLY like...but...i dont want to ruin what he have, besides. I dont know if he has a girlfriend, but he isnt married. He's so charismatic and enthusiastic. I love it X3 I want to wait til i leave school and tell him...but then im worried incase he doesnt feel the same way. thats three years i have to wait. I've got him for two years, only had him for 3 months. already im obsessed. I take the long way round to my classes just so i can walk past his door and smile. even just for that one second ^^ Its so difficult.

I hope you guys somehow sort it out, maybe it will work out...but then i dunno. who am i to judge w Good luck xxx

Seriously, going through the same thing as you are right now!

I'm absolutley head over heels for my teacher, he's somewhere in his 30's (I think) and I do think he likes me as a student and has said to me I'm one of his best pupils! I flirt with him a lot and he flirts back but I really wouldn't reccommend telling him - just in case he doesn't feel the same. It would make it awkward and he could get into trouble.

You posted this ages ago so maybe its all blown over but if not - good luck hun! xx

Hi,

I'm 16 too and just left school. there is this guy he wasn't a teacher but he was a technician a member of staff. and i fancy him to death. he is amazing. He is cute, sweet , funny and hot. we used to sit in his office and eat pizza together and laugh he was only 23.

I think No you shouldn't tell him it will make things awkward but if you really really do like him then

I'd suggest you wait, till your out of school and let the whole student and teacher thing die down a for a while. If you really like him it will be worth the wait. Then go back and see him and see if your still really close.

A female reader, ukiow United Kingdom +, writes (13 July 2009):

well i am 17 and when i first started year 9 i got a new pe teacher and after a couple of lesons i just completely fell in love with him, hes really cute and we got on really well and i always focused on my lesons with him and my grades went right up, but then i found out he was dating one of the female pe teaches and i was so upset because i also het on really well with his girl friend!

Anyways, he always used to flirt with me, even my mates would comment on it, and gave me mixed signs. Through the summer hollidays i couldnt stop thinking about him but when i returned to school i no longer had him teaching me and i was gutted, but he still always stopped and talked to me when ever i saw him even if ment making me late for lessons but he would always stick up for me and flirt with me.

Then one day after school when everyone had gone home and he was the only teacher left in the department i asked him to help me with my pe coursework, which he did and he then offered to help me a couple times a week after school so he did, an the first couple of times he looked a bit uncomftorble so i made converstion with him like what he was doing at the weekend and stuff and after thaty we were geting on really wel and he was flirting with me and i was flirting with me and he kept complimenting saying stuff like your hair looks beautiful today and you have a georgeous smile then one day we were in deep in conversation when we both gazed into each others eyes and kissed (he kissed me i kissed him) then he pulled way and appologised, i said its okay ten there was an aukward silence but then he kissed me again but this time with real force and meaning he then lifted me up onto the desk and we made out but we never had sex.

After that he ignored me for a couple of weeks but then i heard that him and his girl friend and i felt so guilty, but after i left i left school for good me and my teacher got together and we are still togeter now. and i do love him

I'm leaving my old school soon. At the end of the summer term I'm off to a new school because mum and dad want to move. There's this teacher that I REALLY like. I've liked him since he started teaching me, and even when he stopped teaching me. I can't get him out of my head now, and I feel I should tell him but I know he'd say to get over it because I don't think he feels the same way.

I think we've both caught each other staring during lunch times, but I don't know if it's proper feelings on his behalf.

Here's the thing. As much as I'd love something to happen between us, I know it will never be allowed and I don't think he likes me back, he's been avoiding me recently which is strange. I'm fine with that because I don't want anything serious to happen between us (well not illegally anyway) because I wouldn't want to have to keep something like this away from my best friends. All I want is to know how he feels about me, whether it's a crush or just student/teacher standard relationship (aka. no feelings of any kind, just simple 'You're my student, do the work please')

I know I'd never have the guts to tell him, but it's so difficult because I will probably never see him again. And I get this feeling in my stomach when I see him. Sometimes I WANT him to see me looking at him. :( :S Confused...

To the question below:

You and your friend are in the early stages of developing a teacher crush. I wouldn't stop talking about the teacher I liked and it turned into mee actually REALLY liking him.

But I wouldn't do anything, I know you don't want to hear this (believe me, I'd hate to hear it) but nothing can happen between you two, not now anyway. And if you did, and your friend fancied him and somehow it got out, how do you think she'd feel? It is probably a crush, but make sure nothing happens until it's legal and your friend would be ok with it.

One of the PE teachers who I speak to regularly on daily basis, always has the tendency to make my heart melt. He has such an amazing personality, with such a perfect smile which makes me feel warm inside.

Year 11 have just recently had there prom, and he was there. I couldn't help but just stare @ him, in that suit which looked stunning on him. Me & a close friend had our photo taken with him on that night, without actually realizing he put his arms around both of us, we felt so special. He smelt incredible, I could still smell him the next morning.

Ever since that night me & my friend are always constantly talking about him (maybe far too much) & when we see him but can't help ourselves from giving him a smile.

I wouldn't say I have a crush & I wouldn't certainly say I fancy him, do you reckon I feel more than I should?

PS.

Most teachers don't attempt to put their arms around students in photos, so why me & my friend? Does he feel something for us?

I've fancied my teacher for a couple of years now.

2 years ago, I had my first lesson with him, and his smile just made me melt. It felt strange. I've never felt this way about a teacher before, not even for another guy my age. Sure, I'd fancy them but not like this...

I'm not sure how old he is, but I'm guessing probably 20 years older at least.

I soon tried really, really hard at the subject and I got top of the class. I felt so proud that he had faith in me, and I was one of his favourite students as I always listened, and got the work done first.

It's amazing how he's changed my life without even doing much. I was bad at the subject in my younger years and now I feel I'm doing so much better.

I had been in his group for a year until I was moved up. I was really upset that I may not get to speak to him as much, but I still try really hard at the subject and it's still my favourite subject even if it's with a different teacher. I was hoping I'd have him next year.

But it got worse. He said he was leaving. I was devastated.

That the whole problem. I've been thinking should I tell him before he leaves because I won't see him again. I've actually only now just come to terms that he's probably forgotten me already. It hurts :( I've never told anyone about it. My friends have mentioned stuff like this a few times but they think it's stupid.

Aaah I'm in the same boat as you lot!

I have a big, biiig crush on my Drama teacher, I'm in sixth form (Not giving exact age) and he's 36.

We get along pretty darn well, seeing as we love pretty much the same type of music, films and shows (Doctor Who especially). He's a very respectful guy and kind too,

I find him attractive in a strange sense that none of my friends would understand, but it's mainly his charisma, optimistic approach and open laugh that makes me go all tingly inside. (And maybe that if you put in a pinstripe suit, Converses and give him ruffly hair, he'll look like David Tennant.)

I know I can never tell him or get involved with him, since he has two kids and a wife (Whom he sadly doesn't see as much anymore due to our exam preparations).

And considering the fact that I am almost a year into a relationship with a bloke who loves me and would do anything for me, so it would almost be a massacre if anything happened between us.

Besides, the best I can get with him is being his student and him being my role model =D

Let's face it girl, you're 16 and he's 32. Do you really think things can work out between you two? there's a 16 year gap between you two. He's not looking for a girlfriend amongst his students.

Telling him that you fancy him would make things really awkward. You have a friendly relationship with your teacher. LEAVE IT THERE. Don't bother telling him. Its just a crush. Before you know it would have gone away.

Having a crush on a teacher is extremely normal. In fact its a good thing. Look for qualities of him that attract you so much and perhaps try and look for them in your future boyfriends.

I remember having a crush on one of my teachers. Its really hard cause I really liked him. but you need to draw a line or else both of you could get into trouble

Im 15 and I have a crush on a teacher in my school. It really is silly, and obviously I know that it is just a silly crush but it doesn't stop me fantasising ha! I've never had him for any of my lessons, I've never spoken to him and I don't even know his last name! But he has got this manly charm which the boys my own age just don't possess. The boys in my year look exactly that, like little boys, and it completely turns me off! Plus most of them have the brainspan of a hamster ... My friend told me he looks like a burn victim but I think his wear and tear appearance is rather sexy! mmmmmm .... Obviously nothing is going to happen because he's got a ring on his finger and he's my teacher! But still ... nice to have abit of eye candy!

You are obviously hiding a lot of emotions inside, which are desperate to come out. It's best to let them out, rather than keep them locked inside and regret it for years. Who knows, he may even like you back!? Its worth a shot! Good luck!

I just got butterfyls in my stomach when he sed i had to work with him all day because i love being around him every time i see him walking i cant help but smile.

We look at eachother and smile and we could stand there for miniutes.

He has a wife and its like i hate her and i havnt even met her but i dont want to hate her because she hasnt done anything wrong.

I think he feels the same way but.

I could never ever ever do anything because i could never put his career at risk.

I just probably have a teenage crush but i really do care for him and if anything ever happend to him on my behalf i would kill myself.

He put his face close to myn the other day and i just wanted to freaze the moment forever he whispered something in my ear but i cant remember cuz i was to happy oh well lol i will just have to get over him.

Hello, well maybe my story can help you.

I fancied my male teacher like crazy when I was 12/13. He was 32 at the time. We got on like a house on fire both during lessons, trips out and summer camps. I used to feel butterflies in my tummy just getting dressed in the morning knowing I was going to see him at school. I wasn't the prettiest or cleverest, but I worked hard to please him and behaved impecably. I also acted really cool in front of my mates with regards to him (who would have spoilt it all out of jeaulousy) and parents (who would have spoken to the Head straightaway and got him into trouble).

Looking back, the teacher probably knew I was infatuated but at the same time I gave him enough signs that I understood things couldn't go any further for both our sakes (even though it was killing me inside, like a fire that you can't put out). So I think I earned his trust and we had the closest to "special times together" without causing a riot. I missed the bus home one night after talking to him after school, so he gave me a lift home on his bike. I got to hold on to him tight for 15 minutes and I was in heaven!!!! I never said a word to anyone. Then another time he invited me to his house (with his wife there) to sort out his computer (I was an IT expert for my age and he was clueless about computers). my parents always insited on giving them an address where i was going and i couldn't ask my mates to lie for me to keep the secret. I kinda knew my parents would say absolutely no way and freak out, so I invited another friend along with me like the most natural thing in the world. I said I'd be back home for 2pm but time dragged on and I was loving it, my friend headed home but i wanted that extra time to nose around his house and talk to him! I didn't hate his wife, she was nice, I just thought "lucky girl". I didn't dare ask to use the phone (and no mobiles in them days) so got home eventually at 3pm and my parents were sick with worry despite knowing that I was going to "sort out his computer with a mate". At least I got off with just a telling off, phew! (though i think they were starting to get suspicious so was real careful from here on).

At camp one summer I got to sleep next to him under the stars even thought there were 30 of us he could've chosen. I can still feel the shivers on my skin... it was beautiful. Nothing happened. We just whispered to each other thoughts about the world and the future. He taught me loads about life and I think he liked me a lot, but would have never done anything to keep us safe... I certainly WOULD HAVE (ha, ha!) but chose not to.

Fast forward 18 years. I started dreaming about him again. Thought I could get in touch again. Managed to eventually track him down through old pals, networks, etc. He was dead happy to hear from me. We're meeting each other soon, he's now 50 (but appears 40! jammy sod) and I'm 30. We both have families. I don't expect anything spectacular to happen. But our friendship (platonic now) has clearly lasted. And it's better than spoiling it all when you're a kid. He didn't get into trouble. I didn't get into trouble. He was special to me and I'm still special to him. We're now adults and can handle things better.

what I'm saying is do not give up on your love if you find it too difficult (I know how it feels and you don't really want to, most people will tell you forget about him but YOU SO CANNOT!), focus on other thins too so you don't freak anyone out by becoming a stalker, and let things flow nice and easy. Keep talking, spending time with him and away from him, being in touch via email, etc but resist temptation if possible (i know it's tough). the price at the end is so much valuable, a lasting friendship for the rest of your life where you retain control and noone gets hurt. I'm certainly reaping the benefits because I'm seeing him again and we've so much to tell each other...

I will still get butterflies when I see him again, no doubt we'll kiss on the cheek and hug after all this time and spend time together or go for a meal, ring each other at times, etc. It'll be fun and ten times more meaningful than a quick fling that is likely to go wrong and bring all the embarrassment in the world when school finds out and your parents call the police and brand your crush a paedo. It'll break your heart to see him go through sh*t because of you. He's unlikely to want anything to do with you afterwards for his own safety. So you would've blown it. My way, you keep him forever, and who knows what the future may hold? Keep strong girls, been there, done that!

I'm going through the same thing...

The worst part (as I'm sure you know), is that you know he'll never see you as anything else but a student, no matter what you do.

It's so frustrating!!

Why couldn't I just fall head over heels for someone my own age, rather than getting weak at the knees whenever a teacher, of all people, looks my way.

It's pointless. It's stupid. It's also the best I've felt in forever.

Oh well.

Hi,

I stumbled upon this page just now, and I'm sooo glad I did! Now I don't feel like a complete freak! lol ;p

I've had a few crushes on various teachers whilst I've been at school. None of my friends have ever admittted to fancying a teacher(although this by no means indicates that none of them have ever had a crush on a teacher. I say this because I, myself, have never admitted to ANYONE that I've fancied a teacher - that would just make the situation a whoooole lot worse!)

I've just moved to a new school and I feel a little ashamed to say that I already have a crush on one of my teachers. He's my English teacher, and he's not exactly that physically attractive but I swear I am just in love with his personality! I wouldn't DREAM of making a move, or telling anyone. (let alone him! haha) I think it's nice just to have a secret crush and fantasise a little about something I know will never happen. I feel a little sad though because I really like him, and I feel that it's mainly just age that is separating us. It's incredibly heartbreaking and infuriating to think that if I were a little bit older, we could be together... *sigh*

And omg on the last day of term, he sang "I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas" in front of the whole school! (how brave! :)) I discovered that he has the most gooooorgeous voice!

At the end of the same day, we were having an assembly and I was just sitting with everyone else, daydreaming a little. Suddenly, I saw my English teacher walking across the hall - I stared at him, not attempting to hide it because he was quite far away so I thought he wouldn't see me. And then he looked at me, straight in the face. We stared at eachother for a second, two seconds... I have no idea how long it lasted. But when we locked eyes, I swear it felt like an electric current had shot through my body. I couldn't tear my eyes away from him but at the same time, I was terified to maintain our eye contact.

However, I was probably just making the eye contact stuff up to make myself believe that he fancied me too. I wish I knew!... :(

Well, anyway, the bottom line is that I would NEVER tell ANYONE about my teacher crushes, at least not while I'm still at school. This is because I know full well that my fantasies are - well - fantasies, and will never come true. Furthermore, even if they did come true it would be a scandal, my teacher's life and career would be ruined, I would be expelled and my family would probably disown me!

Even if, right now, you feel like you couldn't live without your crush, you will eventually move on, believe me. There are many more fish in the sea!

I found the following advice on the internet, given by an agony aunt:

"There’s no harm in thinking he’s cute as long as you don’t act on your feelings. Teachers are in a position of trust and must maintain high moral standards. He would get into big trouble with the school as well as his wife if he ever considered a romantic relationship with a student.

Crushes often indicate we’re testing out the idea of dating, so try to figure out what you like about him. Does he make you feel smart or important? These are the qualities you should seek out in boys your own age. When you know what you want in a boyfriend, it will be easier to find it."

I think that what she says rings true! I hope this helps you :)

Good luck, everyone! xx

Hi! I thought I'd gone MAD. I've kinda fallen for my biology teacher. I'm actually English, and I've lived in France for 2 years now.

Before he found out I was English, since I NEVER put my hand up in class, becaue I'm quite shy, he always asked me to answer a question, like 3 or 4 times in the lesson, whilst if he asked my friend Eva, he'd only ask her once, and then that was it. I ignored that at first.

Then one day he said "I noticed some English surnames", and then asked this guy in my class if he was English, he said no, then he asked this girl who is half English (mum's Irish, dad's French - she was born in France), and he asked her if she understood and she said yes, she was born in France, and then everyone else said "it's most likely Emma who's going to have problems." And then he looked at me and said "You're English?" and now everyone's calling me his teacher's pet. I didn't like him at first, but now in each lesson he's getting nicer and nicer with me and a bit stricter with everyone else.

Like last week's lesson, there was a new guy in my class, called Greg, and he was sitting next to this really funny guy called Alex. Mr B said "Oh Greg, don't sit next to Alex, he talks all the time, change places." and Greg took the table next to Alex, then Mr B said, "Maybe you should sit next to Emma, she's a really nice girl." and he saw my face and he said, "Well, that's if you want to." Then a minute after he asked me to see me at the end of the lesson. I was so worried because I'd fainted the day before (you can see how weird my life is) and I thought he might have a go at me because of that, luckily he wanted to borrow my folder but he didn't tell me why.

I could NEVER tell him that I fancy him, even though I fancy him A BIT, because my life would be so over. Me and my friends pretend to fancy the teachers as a joke, and I "pretend" to fancy Mr B, but I could never tell them that I really did. I'd only say something if he made a move, and according to French people on Yahoo Answers, I think it's legal for teachers to be involved with a student.

What I recommend you don't do is send him cards on Valentine's Day (I did that when I was 7 and it ended up in total embarrassement) or walking up stairs with him nearby, because you'll end up daydreaming about him and then you'll fall over, and then he'll work it out.

Maybe you should wait until you've left that school, tell him on the last day or something. Avoid embarrassement.

I used to really fancy my p.e teacher. for like a year and a half. my best friend knew but she didn't really understand and she made fun of me. i only saw him on fridays and i would be so happy on those days. i just used to give him a sexy smile as i walked past and hope he'd talk to me. we flirted for months but at the time i kept telling myself that he was just being friendly. then one day he asked me to meet him after school. it was really good. we were dating in secret.. it was really exciting. he didn't groom me or abuse me in any way, it was what i wanted and i learnt so much from it. but i was only 16 and he was 25 so i ended things after about 6 months.

But then at school i got kinda bored, so i told people.. i knew what would happen but i wanted to take the risk. the school found out, my parents found out. and you can imagine their reaction. he lost his job but wasn't arrested. i regret telling anyone, even my best friend. i thought it was something to boast about but i really upset him, because he told me he loved me. I wanted to believe him but how could i believe a 25 year old man was in love with me.

Now i go to college and none of my new friends know about the teacher. i can kinda feel myself falling for my new teacher though too. I don't know if i geniunely like him or i'm just doing it to prove a point to myself? i know he likes me too, he does the same as what my p.e teacher did at the start of last year.

If you fancy your teacher... my advice is don't tell anyone. make yourself attractive to your teacher ie. be impressive with work, look attractive.

and make sure he knows you like him but don't exactly spell it out. look at him and smile... catch his eye. You will find that he starts to do it back to you. Good luck!

OMG! I never knew that there were so many other people who liked their teachers, I just thought I was weird.

Gosh, where do I start. Well, I've fancied my Geography teacher for two years now. It wasn't a love-at-first-sight kind of thing, I grew to like him as I got to know him.

But now, it's kind of an obsession. I've been on his Bebo site, Myspace site, I know his mobile number [only becuase he was stupid enough to post it on the internet!], and I know roughly where he lives. I even try to get to school the same time as he does, just so that he can see me with my new hairstyle or whatever else new I have to show off.

I suppose when you fancy someone, you ignore all the bad vibes coming from them and and only focus on the good, so you feel 100% confident that they like you back, because you're only paying attention to the good signs.

We went on a school trip together once, and we had a really good laugh and I really felt happy. He laughed at all my jokes, smiled at me when he our eyes met [not that I had been staring at him, waiting for our eyes to meet.] I had really convinced myself that he liked me.

Now when I see him, sometimes he smiles at me with this great, big, beaming smile, and then on other days, he doesn't even notice me.

And trust me, telling your friends certainly won't help! There's nothing worse than the teacher walking in the room and everybody [and I mean everybody] screaming out your name and wolf whistling. Gosh and I call them friends?

And as for telling him. . . I would definitely wait until I left the school. At least then, if he knocks you back, you will probably never see him again so you won't be embarrassed every time you meet, and at the age you leave school, it wouldn't be so bad to maybe meet up with them, seeing as you would be old enough, and he would no longer be your teacher.

omg im going through this too!!

Its got to the stage of being totally crazy, a day doesnt go past without me thinking about him!

He's married with a baby daughter and yet he is still young compared to most of the other teachers, I would guess about 30 years old.

I know he isnt the most attractive guy in the world, but I live for a chance of seeing him in the corridor, I will constantly think

'if I walk slower here then I might catch a glimpse'

I try to stop myself when I think of any excuse to knock on his office door and ask a question but it is really hard to stop. I even spend our social time out in the area his office looks into and I always am checking if he is watching us or not

This time last year I was having problems at home and at school and I ashamed to admit that I turned to compulsive lying. There wasnt anyone I could tell about the issues I was having and so the only way to make myself feel better was to get the attention of other people

I would lay awake for hours at night thinking of ways, mainly clumbsyness and accidents that would get me noticed.

Then we went on a school trip with the teacher that I still have a dangerously large crush on.

On the first day I made sure pretty quickly that all my friends knew that I wasnt feeling good, even though I was. Once the lies started then it was really hard to stop.

My friends told him that I was ill and he was really really kind to me and made sure that I was ok and stayed with me while I was eating. I felt so guilty for lying to him but there was no way I could back out then or I would have lost the only friends I had as well as his trust.

The next morning was typical, I was genuinly ill and no, it wasnt a case of the boy who cried wolf, he was really sympathetic and offered me a ride in the bus when everyone else had to walk. I was really ashamed and refused, but he insisted. I felt so awful that I just sat there and cried and while he was trying to get it out of me what was wrong, there was nothing I could do to explain.

A year on from that and the issues at home and school are worse than they ever were. Because I want to take the subject that my crush teaches next year I had to go and talk to him. My parents wern't very supportive about me taking the particular course, so when he got really passionate about how it should be my decision and I should do what I want to do, I just couldnt stand him being nice to me and burst into tears (which made it worse because he was even nicer. Just for the record I am doing the subject because I have an outside hobby that links with it, not because my crush is teaching it.

Im not asking for any sympathy for my situation from anyone, although I am sure that there are people here who have also lied to do somehing.I am simply saying that before you get yourself into the postion that I have got myself into,

TALK TO SOMEONE ABOUT YOUR PROBLEMS BEFORE YOU MAKE A MISTAKE THAT CANNOT BE CORRECTED

I'm pretty much in the same situation, I'm like in love with my 42 year old teacher. & I'm 14. But, the thing is I just got expelled from my school today & I'm never going to see him ever again & I'm never going to be able to tell him how I feel or anything, it sucks. I'm really depressed about it too & idk what to do anymore. I do have his phone number & his address but I would feel weird calling him because it would seem kind of stalker ish. & he didn't even tell me his number I got it online. Lol.

It did seem like he liked me back though, but the last days I've been in school he's been kind of an asshole.. so yeah.

But I personally think you should wait to tell him, I mean I was going to tell my teacher how I felt because I'm leaving the school & its closing down so yeah. But now I'm screwed because my stupid principal had to expell me. But yeah maybe you should wait till you you leave the school or something, like I was going to do.

Hey...

Ive only just found this site but god does it help!

Reading through everyone elses problems helps to understand that im not alone in this situation!

I've been completely and utterly in love with my history teacher for about a year now. I fancied him for a year and a half and then it turned more serious.

Im constantly looking around for him at school and just thinking about him or mentioning his name gives me butterflies! I work with him after school two days a week and its just me and him.

We chat and laugh about silly little things and there have been so many times that ive just wanted to blurt everything out to him.

He used to teach me in year eight but im 14 now and i dont have him anymore.

I recently went to one of my history teachers wedding coz her groom is family and when i got there my history teacher was there and i just couldnt handle seeing him sitting with his girlfriend...i just wanted to kill her.

Im so upset and depressed all the time about this and there seriously isnt one minute in the day that i dont think about him at least once!

I know already that when i leave school, i'll never get over him and will have to track him down and tell him how i feel but until then, im just gonna have to deal with it. Ive told some friends and they are supportive and understand what im going through but its just gettin to the point now that i just cant live without him and have been seriously thinkin about harming myself or doing something drastic to ease the pain of not being able to tell him.

There is an english teacher in our school that EVERYONE fancies and i like him too but not in the way that i like my history teacher...I need help or something so if anyone can then write back...

Me too! I really fancy my art teacher ... and it really upsets me cos i know it's so pointless and stupid - like if anything did happen it would be illegal and weird anyway.

I think it's cos he epitomises the kind of guy i find attractive (arty, attractive in an unconventional way, travelled, mature) and there are aren't any guys like that who are my own age. I wouldn't tell any of my friends as they gossip and the last thing i would want is rumours getting blown out of proportion and him losing his job when he hasn't done anything.

I know it will change when i go to univesity next year and meet people who are my type, but it really does upset me and what makes it worse is that I could never tell him or anyone else ... I know that he wouldn't be interested as he's about 10 years older than me at least and he's in a relationship ... so i just feel like such a stupid little girl. :-(

british_girl agony aunthey i'm in love with my teacher as well, my heart beats so fast i worry im having panic attacks when im near him and i breathe all shallow. i was walking back from a lesson yesterday and saw myself reflected in the glass door and he was right behind me!! my knees went so weak i felt like i was going to pass out! anyway i have him twice a week and i love that, even though its a bit of a risk, depending how the lesson goes: if he speaks and smiles at me, i feel euphoric and it gets me through the rest of the week until i see im again, but if nothing happens, i just want to break down into tears!! its so awful. i have him tomorrow, i last saw him bout 4 days ago, and that lesson was terrible, so im a little worried. im not actually sure if it is love, i mean, it sure feels like that, but i really do admire him, so maybe it could be more of an infatuation. hes really handsome, like david terrant, with dark eyes and hair, and a brill smile, and hes smart and funny and modest, even though he's done amazing things like climb mountains for charity (but he got altitude sickness an never made it to the top - i felt so sorry for him). im 15, if anyone else is in a similar situation, feel free to mail me, its good to talk bout stuff like this to people u dont know, id die if my parents found out (tho my sisters asked me several times if i fancy him - i always deny it, but its hard because if his names mentioned at home, i can feel myself turning bright red!). i dont think he fancies me - it'd be the best thing ever if he did - but often when i look up from my work, hes looking at me, but he had me in year 9 so he probably views me as the child i was then, even tho i answer all the hard questions to impress him. its really tough though. on some days, i think im doing fine, them i see him and i just want to break down into tears, then today, i wasnt feeling too upset about it all, then i accidently bashed my lip and just broke into uncontrollable sobs even though it didnt hurt and i just couldnt stop, i just curled up into a ball n my room and let it all out, because i wasnt really crying over the pain, it was him. im so nervous about tomoorw when im going to see him! i think hes gay cos my sister (who's in his form) says he gives them lectures about gay rights, and she says he lives with 3 other men (??) but id rather he was gay than with a woman ten years older than me. its so hard though. i doubt I'll ever get over him completely.

I also currently have a crush on one of my teachers, my Maths teacher. I'm not particularly close with him, but I just really, really like him. I think it's because I love Maths, and he's a good teacher, plus he's quite sweet.

Anyway, I know nothing can come of it, so I would recommend that you just enjoy your fantasies, maybe work hard in his subject so this teacher notices you for all the right reasons, and never tell the teacher that you like him. Because even if (1% chance) he likes you back, anything you two do together could result in him losing his job.

i would not tell him if i were you...as i am in the same situation sort of with my teacher(although i have never considered telling him), he's always there for me, and helped me through tough times...and yeah i guess i can dream that something might work out between us...im not gonna give you the advice of "forget it you can never be with him" like all my friends give me....because hell you never know what might happen...but if you two are meant to be together then it will happen....but if you tell him, and he doesn't feel the same way then it would be very awkward, and its good that you get on so well like i do with my music teacher, but im sure you don't want to ruin that close friendship by telling him...

hey penny soz i aint wrote nefin in agessss! i did but it wouldnt cum up, to be honest my feelings are not as bad as they used to be, a few months ago i thought id never get over him, and even though i still really like him and have deep feelings i have learnt to respect the fact he has a gf of 4 yrs nd that i care for him farr to much to spoil all that. on friday i was outside skool with my boyfriend, whos 17, he was starrin the whole time, he looked soO jelous, and when i went to talk to him all he said was hi, looked at my boyfriend n walked off *not like him* i think he has realised that i have moved on, i get much more lads being interested in me now, and i think he has realised that, and so have i. i do still like him, and that wont ever change, well not for a long time! but i want him to be happy and he cannot appect me to not have a boyfriend, and i cannot do nefin coz e as a girlfriend, so what do i do, move on, it herts sayin that! but its true but if he didnt have a girlfriend things would be different, i would of told him by now, the age gap is not that big, but its not bout that and i dnt fink anyone can stop lovin sum1 coz of a few stupid yrs! x x x

hiya, well girl I think you should not tell him, things will change, and only for the worst teachers are there to help but not in a personal way. Because he has helped you though some really hard time you will develop feelings, that is naturally.

If you tell him and he feels the same and wants a relationship then he is not good for u (1) he will be breaking the law (2) as a teacher again he will be breaking the principle law of teachers YOU DO NOT HAVE REALTIONSHIP WITH YOUR PUIPLS

All I can say is if you leaving school this year then tell him when you leave you will be out of the school environment and you should be 17 by then, and if he dose not feel the same a least you don’t have to seem him everyday. Also when you start college you will meet some many guys, then the world is you oyster if you like the older guy then you have guys from teens, 20’s and 30’s

To be honest, if he wanted me too, I would do it. I know how you feel sweetie, sometimes its best to keep it a secret, but sometimes you might just want to say it. You decide. Keep your head up, and dont listen to all the people saying "YOURE SICK! IT WILL NEVER WORK!!!!!!!!" becuase you never know.

The last time I posted on DearCupid.Org was during the summer. Back then, I was thinking maybe I'll forget about the teacher I'm in love with some time during this year, as I no longer study his subject. Unfortunately, I think I'll have to take another "All I Want For Christmas Is You" marathon this year, thinking about him...this will be my third Christmas doing so...

He's in his late 30s / early 40s, married with four adorable kids [I think the oldest is about six or seven years old, the youngest being just two]. I've tried many times to move on - especially now that I'm in Year 12, I've discovered so many more mature guys out there.

*sigh* I still can't move on, despite all. I discovered that I still have to see him three times each week due to some extracurricular activities.

It's been quietly known that he hasn't been happy with his marriage in recent years - I'm not even looking for a chance to be with him...I just want him to be happy.

He's not "movie star handsome" [i.e. blonde hair and six-pack], but he's definitely good-looking, at least to me. He's a Scot, with dark hair [kinda greying but that only adds up to his good looks], grey eyes, and a smile to die for. Also, he's very shy [such a cute feature...] and modest - he'd much rather die than admit to his achievements.

Oh yeah. He's also really nice and absolutely hilarious.

What's there to not like about the guy? *sigh* I can only wish that he'll some day find his happiness though...

Hi. When I was 15-16 I had a major crush on my teacher. But I think due to the fact she was married and in her late forties that took away any temptation. We all get tempted by things but I dont think its a good idea. He's your teacher and so that is just a professional relationship. Plus the fact that if when you say it it comes out badly or he gets embarrassed maybe things could become awkward. Your education is what is important here so its best not to risk that. Your crush will pass and you can find someone with whom you can be with without unnecisary complications.

Hes now awarded me a speech day award which i have toc ollect infront of the whole school and parents. Seriously the things he was saying was AMAZINGG!! Hes setting all the work out just for me and last week i had to speak to him twice in the corridor and 2moro (Monday) i have to go see him so we can arrange a time to go through what i need to do. That means me n him in his room alone talking. I am SOO scared!! Im even nervous bout going to see him 2moro just to arrange the meeting. How will I survive!

Well the twist is that I'm 16 and he's 28-29, and I'm going on holiday with the school in Febuary skiing and he asked me if i was going! OK, you may think that that may be just an ordinary question, but it wasn't he was like, "please come!" that's what his face was telling me, and when i said i've put on the waitin glist, he thought i might not be coming, i just didn't tell him i'm at the top of the list and that someone is bound to drop out of it! He flirts with me, and always tries to have an excuse to talk to me, and i like it, and plus, the added bonus, he's not just nice generally, he looks like Shane Ward off the X Factor too!

Yea but I'm really not the type of person to flirt with a teacher lol. N like I said, he doesn't get close to his pupils...he just teaches them but he does talk to us. I find it really embarassing talking to him cos I'm a bit shy around boys. I like the idea of you finding a guy just like your teacher...but I wouldn't cos you would be using him in a way wouldn't you? But I can see where your coming from. I dream about my teacher too but none of them make sense! Does your mum know or anyone in your family? I would be too embrassed to tell my mum! I think exactly the same as you! Your age is just how long you have been living on this earth. So what? Age doesn't matter at all to me! xxx

yeah i no wot you mean, sorry about your boyfriend, to be honest with you i have been out with alot of lads since i met this teacher and i feel so nasty when im with them because the only person on my mind is him and its totally not fair on my ex' so i have had to finesh them! thats how bad it really is! im going to try and find someone who is abit like him in a way and maybe i will find it easier. to be honest i have dreamt about him nearly every night since i have met him, and its really annoying me now because i am trying to forget about us in that was- :@ but hopefully it will start getting easier. just because he has a wife and 2 kids doesnt mean you cant fancy him and flirt, as long as thats all that happens. to be honest i think age is just a number, so if they didnt have a gf/ married, i would of done something about it when i leave and told him but like you said there is no point when there with someone because i wouldnt want to make it hard for him, cos hes amazing. im sorry about your bf btw, i bet this teacher is more on your mind now because your single :S cya l8a :D

Yeh it's cute cos you can tell he likes you too. I think you both know that you 2 are never going to happen but it's still really nice. Have you ever read 'love lessons' by Jaqueline Wilson cos the situation in that story is identical to yours n it's a really good book :P Well as my teacher teaches r.e it's in the law that we have to have 1 lesson a week of r.e so I would imagine I will have him for the next 2 years one lesson a week. Hopefully they won't make another teacher teach me r.e. It must be horrible knowing he won't teach you now. But you will still see him around school and he might cover your lesson sometimes if a teacher is ill. I'm so glad I will have just that one lesson though and I feel really sorry for you. I did choose to do the r.e full course originally because I happen to be really good at it and having his lesson 3 times a week was just a bonus and a dream! But the course isn'r running cos not enough people chose it so I have to do art instead but you can imagine the disappointment knowing I couldn't have him teach me 3 times a week. If my teacher found out I fancied him I would die!! He's soo not the type to flirt n stuff lol. Anyway reply xxx By the way, my names Penny :)

i know how you alll feel. ive just got back from school trip, and the teacher i have fancied for ages went. i found out he had a girlfriend while i was there and hes been with her for nearly 5 years. hes 25 and im 14. i havent got him next year because i hate the subject he teaches, but it really herts thinking i wont have him. its the holidays now and because ive just been on a school trip with him for 5 days i miss him even more than i would. it really hert because he was flirting with this other young teacher. on the coach back i asked him if he misses his girlfriend and it hert so much when he said, just a bit it wud be nice 2 c her. i wish soo much it was me in her shoes. he is the most amazing person and i have cried over him so many times. ive been out with loads of people since ive met him but it doesnt feel right because the only person who is ever in my head is him! i am quite close to him and chat to him alot but he knows i really like him, just by the way i act. when he told me he has a girlfriend my face just droped. i c him staring at me sometimes and it really chears me up.( even tho he has a gf it really doesnt matter because i know no one could like him as much as i do, as nasty as it seems its true) i dont know what to do because i know he will still be with his gf when i leave, but ill keep asking him just in case (he might get the hint...) hes just all i ever have in my head n really i know 10 years isnt that big of a age gap, mine and my mates mums and dads have a bigger gap than that. the only thing that puts me off wanting to tell him when i leave is that he has a gf and it wouldnt be fair on any of them. if he is still with her when i leave ( he probably will be) im just going to have to face facts as much as it hurts. i know i want to keep friends with him though no matter what and i am prepared to do whatever it takes to keep our friendship, even if friends is all we could ever be. dont tell him until you leave just give him hints, then when you leave find out if hes single. good luck.

Im 14 and I fancy my teacher too! He has taught me for 3 years one lesson a weekf or r.e but I never used to fancy him or anything! Suddenly, in the past 6 months I started to feel really weird and shy around him then I realised I fancy him. I used to just think I didn't fancy him and he was just a really good teacher thats why I liked him. Then when I told my friends, I felt like I really do fancy him! It's the summer holidays now and I really miss him and can't take my mind off him. He has a wife and kids too! Doesn't mean I should stop fancying him though. Hes in his 40's but hes really good looking! I would say as long as you don't tell your teacher then your fine. I think it's a part of life and enjoy it while you do fancy him because you won't fancy him forever. So if he teaches you then take advantage - answer all the questions in class, ask for help in class or even go talk toh im at break and say you need help with homework or coursework or whatever. I know it's really hard because I cry over him but then think that I will see him soon and I will be happy again. So dont worry about it anyone! It's fun and cute!

I have a massivecrush on my sciece teacher, i am 14 and he is 24, but he has already a wife and kid. He has been teaching me for 3 years and next year i wont be having him, i have cried and cried and hoped things will change but i know it wouldnt. Sometimes he even gets on my nerves, he isnt exactly very kind, he jokes around to the whole class and can cuss people if he wants to, not exactly me and him has been in a good friendship anyway. But at times, we do joke a lot, and at times when i look at him, i can't help but realising he stares at me and looks away quickly when he sees my eye contact. Anyway we've been to classwith each other and all sorts, but i learn nothing from him whatsoever, i can only get my education if i have a teacher that dont distract me.

not exactly easy forgetting him as i see him everyday in school, i even drag myself to school when im proper dousy just so i attend his lessons. I also really wanted him to be our form tutor, as our one is leaving, but no. I remember the last day of school when i was crying he gave me a hug, which i stopped straight away, strange huh?

Having a crush on a teacher is a perfectly natural thing and it shows that you are emotionally maturing towards being able to have a "real" relationship of your own in the future.

Crush's are directed towards teachers for a number of reasons but one is that they are "safe"; you know on some level that your feelings will not be reciprocated, this is why teachers that respond to emotional or sexual advances from their students are so heavily punished.

Trust me; we've all been there - I doubt there is one person who has left school and didn't have any kind of emotional attachment to at least one of their teachers.

Believe me though, once you have left school you will see the feelings that you had back then in a very different way and that the experience was more of a way of letting out these newly aquired emotional abilities on someone who (ultimately) can not hurt you.

But i dnt want to ruin ne frendship i have with him. And i suggest u dont tell him either because the chances r he will reject u. Also, there was a maths teacher at my school, who i was very close to aswell, and recently he committed suicide. I was so upset, i cudnt stop crying for weeks, and i was a mess, i realised that maybe wat i feel for the teacher i fancy, is just wat i felt for my maths teacher, respect and friendship, maybe nothing more.

It is very common to get a crush on teachers because they can seem more mature and sophisticated than lads your own age, but remember, being kind to you is part of their job. Find out if he is single- if he isn't then you will just have to learn to accept that it can never happen. Also, having a relationship with this teacher could lead to him losing his job or even being jailed and you definitely don't want to be responsible for that. Enjoy your crush while you can- be patient and maybe when you leave school you could try and get to know him a bit more.

I'm 13 and I have a massive crush on my old Maths teacher. I recently moved up a set from his group because he was such an excellent teacher! (and maybe because I was trying to impress him)...! I can't help thinking about him all the time and avoiding him only makes things worse. I think he knows that I fancy him but I'm not sure. It's been pretty funny actually, because of various things that happened... one being when another teacher caught me rolling my kilt up in the corridor(all the girls do it) he (unfortunately) was standing right next to the teacher. He thought it was funny too- but he tried to hide it. He said my name in that shocked but joking tone, and I tried to hide my laughter, but couldn't help grinning back. Another time was when I was coming back from the nurse's office, because I was on my period and had really, really bad cramp- I'd gone to the nurse for some painkillers. He saw me coming from the nurse and had a funny smile on his face while saying, 'are you ok?' and i was forced to say that i 'just felt sick'! there were other times too, but I would be writing for days if I said them all. He is 26 and I'm 13- but he is sooooo cute. The truth is I'm enjoying the fun- but what should I do? Please help!

I know exactly how u feel!I have always liked teachers and older men in general but there has been this one teacher i have now liked for about 4 years. Im 16, about to go into my final year of high school and this teacher is 36 or 37. Like yourself he helped me through the toughest time of my life because he is my guidance teacher so thats his job...it was at this time i realised i had feelings for him but over the years it has developed. Dont tell the teacher you like him...i know it is tempting but imagine if that was u...he isnt allowed to do anything. Instead do what i did and be open with people...everyone in my year knows that i fancy this teacher and it soon gets around and some of my friends even joke 2 him about me and when he walks past me they will say 'ohhh look who it is' and he just smiles! I know that he feels something as he winks at me, watches me at lunch, always talks 2 me and he once put his hand on my lower back...nothing really but if he didnt like me then he wouldnt do it...simply to avoid confusion! If this teacher realises u like him and he is still nice 2 u and u can c signs like i have then it is most likely he has feelings for u. Just keep it friendly and flirty while u are still a student, once u leave however, u can do anything as nothing is illegal!! U just have 2 be patient! Hope u work things out soon!! Love anon. xx

Wait until you finish school, then find out if he is single. I had a crush on one of my teachers in highschool and we flirted for several years until I graduated (he was in his late twenties and we both knew what could happen if we did anything too soon). We met up later in the year and got on great and ended up dating for a couple of years. It was definately worth waiting for! Then in college I hooked up with another teacher at the end of my last year. I definately have a thing for teachers - I'll probably end up working in a school one day!

The one i fancy is 35 but he looks older. I think he knows, all of my year and half of the one above knows. I dunno if he knows but he probably does - i think sum1 shouted it out at him. I told the younger teacher, he seems friendlier. Also, he used to be taught by the other teacher. Anyway - just tell some friends, lets it spread and wenever he/she walks past people start to call ur name and the teacher just smiles. He's great and he still acts normal around me.

I fancy my maths teacher as well. But the thing is whenever he is infront of me i start feeling hot and i can't get a word out of my mouth. My heart starts beating so fast. And i can't sleep or eat. When i'm stuck in the lesson i'm really shy to ask him and when i do he looks straight at me or sits by me and he smells GORGEOUS!!!!!! I want to get over him and i have tried to act like a normal student but it is impossible. You see he is only in our school for one year and i know i'll start crying when he goes and i don't want to cry because everyone thinks i FANCY but i've told them i don't.

Please Help

Dont tell him. I had a crush on my teacher for ages but Ive learnt to live with the fact I'll never be with him. He is friendly to me aswell and that makes it even harder. When I first got the crush on my teacher I was obsessed and followed him all around the school. But I told my best friend how exactly I felt and she helped me try to get over him which of course I havent because I still fancy him. But it really helped to tell someone how I felt. Try telling someone (apart from your teacher) how you feel. I guarantee you that if you told your teacher how you felt he would be really embarrased. Try putting yourself in his shoes. how would you feel if a student had a crush on you? Would you be scared that you might lose your job? Trust me dont tell him. Dont ruin what you've already got with him.

um, i don't know if you should tell him if you don't know if he doesn't feel anything for you. try this out. next time you 2 are talking alone together, step up close to him (but not too close) if he moves back then he is uncomfetable, if he stays there then he's either fine with it, or just doesn't care. well i am 17 turning 18 next month. i started to like this maths teacher last year, although he's not my teacher now, but we still talk a lot. last year he would tease me saying little things to me. i got a bit offended by them as i'm sensitive. i started to hate him and think he was a horrible teacher, so i stopped going to see him for help and started asking my twin's teacher for help. he would say to me, don't you like me? do you hate me? i said no, but i actually did hate him. although he kept up with the little jokes and would tell everyone else in the class to stop working and look up at him, except me. soon i got these strange feelings for him which made me scared, so i stayed away from him 4 a while. after, i managed to control my feelings (even though i had started to like him). i ended up talking to him a lot more. then i confronted him about him teasing me. he told me that it was his fault not mine and that he was sorry. now this year we talk a lot and he waves to me, i wave back to him, he says hello to me and on our out of school trips he sits next to me. now i don't know what to do as i'm confused. i want to get over him but i can't. he's leaving soon, and i want to get over him b4 he leaves so i'm not upset. if i don't get over him i don't know what i'll do coz i'll never see him again!!

A female reader, anonymous, writes (17 January 2006):

I fancy my ICT teacher too! But he is a bit of a perve. He has a girlfriend and he is having gay relations with a PE teacher and an ICT assistant. He's just so nice to me and that. I say flirt with him see how he responds.

Start like this:

What is his starsign? from this you can understand his responses and feelings. Don't tell him how you feel. He is a teacher even if he feels the same way he will turn you down. What you need to do is if you really feel you fancy this guy you should HINT that you fancy him, subtle but obvious enough for a man to understand. You know almost like dangling bait when fishing. See first if he takes the bait. Now ask yourself what is he putting on the line for this relationship: His courier his reputation he may never get another job in that proffesion. How much do you fancy him? Would you marry him? However in saying that he could be much the other way. Remember school is work to him and you know how people put on fronts for work personally he could be a very different person, and may take advantage of you. But in saying that if you really truly believe that you really fancy him and you don't think this is something you might get over in a year then go for it! Life is too short to hang around. Just don't confront him because you could put him in a very difficult position, it come to a choice between you and his courier. REMEMBER. If he doesn't take the bait and he knows you fancy him he is obviously not worth the hassle. remember if you fancy him let him come to you. If you go to him and he loses his job over it it will only lead to resentment. Although taking all of this into account even if you truly believe he is the ONE is he really worth risking your grades in that subject? Because if you two break up over something and he is not happy he may undergrade you.

A female reader, anonymous, writes (17 December 2005):

Mate I dont think "fancy" is the right term you should use to describe this feeling. I think its more like an "admiration". I feel that beccuase of his kindnees and helpfulness its making you think that you should fancy the guy in return for his kindness. First you'll go think why is he doing this to me? why is he helping me a lot? am i special to him? As far as I know, its their job to be like that and they're getting paid for it as well. There could also be a good chance that you think its possible for you two to be in an intimate relationship. If so, just picture him that he is not able to have an erection due to his beer tummy and sweaty skin. Yuck!

Anyway, i posted this message coz I currently admire my Human Biology Teacher. And by referring to my feeling as an "admiration" I feel that I should look up to him as a role model instead of imagining us in a bed getting on. X_X So my advice is use the word "admire" instead of fancy so that youd feel you're giving him respect which limits you from fantasising stuffs as well.

Just to be honest, that's what Im trying to do and just focus my self on my studies So that when the test comes and I got an A. I could stick my test paper on his face and say I dont fucking need you in my life!!!

So IN YOUR FACE!!!

I'm sure he will understand and your strong bond won't be broken even if you don't go any further then friends but you never know he ight even feel the same way as you i hope this has helped luv liss xx

Don't do it. It will wreck any relationship you have. What do you think you're going to get out of it anyway? It would be ILLEGAL for him to have any sort of intimate relationship with you, and he would be obliged to tell his line manager about what you had done/said.

Bev Conolly agony auntWhat would you gain by telling him you fancy him? More to the point, what would you lose? You say that you don't want things to change between you, but if you admit to the way that you're feeling, they will change -- and in a big way, as he will pull back instantly to avoid charges of unprofessional conduct (or worse).

My brother is a high-school teacher, and sometime headmaster, and over the years has had to deal with girls (and boys) who've admitted crushes to him. Each and every time it's been awkward in the extreme, as he has to try to strike a balance between being a good teacher and mentor and keeping a proper legal and professional distance from the student.

Please DON'T ruin everything that you enjoy about this professional person sharing his time and skills with you. Your admission would make things difficult for both of you.

Be aware that fancying a teacher is so common in high school that there's probably not a single adult you can name who hasn't had a similar experience. Fortunately, crushes fade with time and distance and when you find someone your own age who interests you.

The best thing to do is to keep this to yourself, safe in my ironclad guarantee that in 2 years' time, you won't even remember why you were attracted to him.

I used to fancy a teacher at my school but to be honest these feelings of love are just a part of growing up. He could be married and have kids.

You can still always be his friend and maybe one day when you leave school and find out if he's single you could ask him out.

A reader, anonymous, writes (20 September 2005):

No-do nottell him, dear. Male teachers do not look for girlfriends among their students. I will give you the same advice I gave another reader some time, ago...who asked a very similar question.

Teachers are forbidden by the school and by the law to engage in anything beyond a friendly teacher/student relationship. It's probably hard for you to think he likes you only in this limited non-romantic way but you will have to learn to accept the boundaries that must exist between students and teachers. Just accept that he's a wonderful role model and a great educator.

Having a crush on a teacher is very common in high school. I would guess he is a handsome, nice person and he has treated you with utmost respect and kindness. You will have to accept the fact that the relationship you may wish with him can exist only in your mind. You might learn some important things about yourself from your crush on this teacher, though. By identifying the things that you admire in this male teacher, you'll see what qualities are important to you when you get older and have opportunities to date guys your own age. Please don't expect the guys your age to match up with this teacher in terms of maturity, but take note of how nice & respectful this teacher is..just base future dating choices on those fine qualities in a person.

Hun, go and get out with your own friends and have fun being a carefree, fun loving teen. Enjoy life because all too soon..the huge responsibilities of adulthood will be "nipping at your heels" and the harsh reality of growing up way too fast sets in. Enjoy your youth and date boys your own age! Take care dear and best wishes.

Hugs,

Irish

Hi There,

I don't think you should tell him. If he is as nice as you say he is you will really be putting him on the spot. He is not allowed to date his students, even if you were an adult student he would still be fired immediately if he was found out. Why ruin something beautiful, sure it's fine for you to have romantic thoughts about him and for you to be friendly with him, but if you bare all and tell him how you feel about him he will have to stop being friendly back and you may well lose someone who in years to come could still be a part of your life. I hope you find this helpful.
