A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Im 18 years old and i just graduated from high school in june. Im in love with one of my teachers.

i had her as a teacher the 1st semester. She is 23 years old so there is not that big of an age difference. I have sepent a lot of time with her alone we both had a free peroid at the same time so i would stop by and we would talk and hang out together. I am very shy and dont open up to most people but for some reason i was able to talk to her.

a lot of the kids at my school dont think she is attractive but i think she is beautiful inside and out. she is an amazing person and she has a great personality. i think she is very cute and very pretty. and she deff has a nice body. but that is not why i like her. she is very sweet and she always used to call me babe which i liked. we have a lot in common. we both love dane cook we like the same music we both love musical theatre and were both virgos.

she hasn't come out as being bi or gay but i get vibes that she is at leat bisexual. she supports gay right very strongly as do i because im bisexual. i have never flelt this way about someone before. i think about her more than anything else. i need help i dont know what to do. i have been trying for the longest time to get over her but part of me donsnt want to because i fee like we should be together. please give me advice.

A female reader, PsyCookie United States +, writes (4 September 2008):

PsyCookie agony auntYou could start by asking her out in a friendly manner. Tell her you want to keep being acquainted because you thought of her as your role model and as the best teacher ever and specially, a friend.

Get to know her more. Develop a friendship with her so when the big moment comes she won't be too freaked out. Remember, there are women who are not comfortable with the idea of a homosexual relaionship, even when they might possibly be one, because of the sad stigmatism it carries. Also, remember that you were her student once and she might see that as a bit unproffessional. If she thinks the things I said above, she might react negatively towards your proposal and avoid you/reject you, so make sure of everything.

But even if she doesn't like you back in the end, this lady sounds like such a great person to have as a friendship. So if nothing come out, at least you will have great friendship.

Good luck and I hope you the best!

I have a similar experience but with my friend. She wants to remain best friends and even though Im in love with her but I respect her wishes. Doesnt bother me because she still in my life and I enjoy her company. Just be careful how you approach her so it doesent get awkward If she tells you yes then enjoy every momentwith her. Good Luck!

x..BabyGirl..x agony auntYou're right there's not that much of an age gap. I think you should go for it.

People might raise their eyebrows at you, but what you're doing isn't illegal. There's many stories in the papers of teachers getting their sixteen year old students pregnant and proposing to them. I'm pretty sure they've had to lose their jobs though.

Look into it and see if she would loose her job and if she would, I think it's best you consult her. If she wouldn't then go for it. Carpe diem. You only live once, live it in the fast lane. Go for it and enjoy every moment.

Good luck

I think that its best if you just get her alone and tell her.

Just be honest.

If she doesn't feel the way you feel then learn to let it go.

Good luck!

A male reader, Shinobi's heart Canada +, writes (2 September 2008):

Shinobi's heart agony auntWell...first, get close to her. Get to know her, you can do that by asking her out! I mean, if you're as close as I think, it should work. Tell her you would love to hang out with her one day somewhere. That's all, it's not that hard. Oh, and by the way, if someone supports people with different sexual orientation, it doesn't mean THEY have a different sexual orientation! So be careful, don't get any ideas just yet. While your out eating or simply walking you could simply ask her "why do you support the idea of people with different sexual orientation so much?" And she could tell you directly why! Then, as a joke you could say "wait...don't tell me you are..really?". And that'll clear the whole thing probably! And tell her with a bit of a joking tone "heyy, don't worry, I'm okay with it!". But just be careful how you say it, don't make it sound as an insult or you're just going to have a slap across the face. So..

1. Get close

2. Ask her out.

3. Be sure that she doesn't have a different sexual orientation.

4. Have FUN.
