writes:I am a college student (sophomore in my undergrad). I'm 18 going on 19 this year, and I am extremely mature, proffessional, and intelligent for my age. i'm level headed and care about my future a lot. I'm not trying to sound cocky here at all, just trying to paint the right pictures to get the right answers. I want to be a doctor and i'm very pretty. I don't get caught up in silly things very often. But, this semester i fell in love. I have never felt like this before, it's like I'm a different person. The problem is, it is my calculus TA (teaching assistant). I love everything about it him, and its not just a crush or something because he is an authority figure, I genuinely appreciate him, his brain, and so many other things about him. He is a graduate student and he is, from what i gather, 25. i have always been solely attracted to older guys, probably because i am so mature. My ex is 24, and we actually broke up because he wasn't mature enough for ME. What should i do?! I dont know if this guy would be uninterested because i am student, or because he thinks i'm just a kid or something when really, i'm not and i really want to be in a mature relationship with him. Should i tell him? should i forget about it? I dont know what to do!!!! Thank you =]

Sadly you can't touch him because he's a teacher and in a place of trust. Wait until you've graduated before you say anything. Also, so discount guys your own age because they don't seem mature. Some of us are. So spend time getting to know other guys as well.

 I know how you feel. I was also very concerned about my studies and quite frankly didn't allow for relationships or "hanging out" (I graduated from undergrad 3, going on 4, years ago...holy crap, has it been that long?)
Have you ever talked to this teacher outside of class before? I say go with your heart but I also hastily caution to wait until after your class with him ends...you're still only a sophomore - if you were a senior, I'd say wait until after you've graduated, but you can't wait that long because he may move on to another school to finish his schooling. Your gut rarely lies to you, so go with it and good luck!
