A female , green-eyed-girl writes:

hey ,

i know there are lots of questions on here about people being in 'love' with teachers.

But ive been mad over a teacher for 3 years now and i know so much about him that he has grown to be an obsession n im truely head over heels over him...plz dont say its a crush...i know what a crush is and this dnt compare.

Well this guy lets call him 'john, 39 yrs old' knows bout this ...he is married has kids and is a great teacher... he pays alot of attention to me well he did until a friend was being very sarcastic and told him i fancy his collegue 'ell' (which i dont...cos he is scum!) n well since then he dnt seem to bothered about me.

He also has another collegue 'con'...a much younger pe teacher and he is so sweet and he pays alot of attention to me(in friendly way)...he also knows that im mad about 'john'. well not too long ago i was playing a football match and i had the ball...he pushed me up against the wall(whilst tryin to get the ball) n put his hand around my bum(accidental/purpose?)

also anuva time i was in a football game n yet he played against me again...this time we were a bit agressive for the fun of it...bumping into eachother makin me fall over and stuff well at one point he pushed me over but caught me n pulled me bk(him standing behind me) he pulled the bk of me into the front of him n thrusted forward ( he really isnt the kind of guy to mean tht rudely) ...but that was 2 encounters in a short amount of time.

he always greets me with a big smile and says hello and asks if im ok and stuff and he is so genuine...yesterday after school he drove past...it was pitch black and noone was about n i was waiting for my dad in my pe kit...'con' pulled up beside me as he came out the skool gates and offered me a lift...is this normal??

the more i think bout these things that have been happening the more i want to believe that he likes me

'john' has made me so depressed and makes me feel an inch tall yet 'con' brightens up my day wen ever he says hi.

dya think this 'john' is a jerk?(forget he is a teacher)

dya think 'con' may be giving signals?

should i confront him?

thank you guys...and please be kind lol!

Hi. I understand you cause the same thing happened to me at the University. he was my favourite teacher. And he became my favourite while teezing me. I really liked him but I tried to stay away from him. But it didn't work. After 3 years he came back, he said that he is divorced and wants me marry to him. It was a great shock for me. I still love him. I know that it is impossible to be together. But we are trying to be friends. He is very kind to me, and I am kind to him. We both know it is impossible. I thing that God sees everything and if you badly want something to happen, it happends. I was dreaming about him that one day he will propose me, and it happened. I didnt do anything to earn him. If he is in your destiny it will happen. Just hug him ones and try is that a true feeling or not. then u will no what you should do. I tried and I understod that it is not love. it is just kind of mixture of love and interest. but i really care about him. It is a torture if u live in Moslem country and can't do what you want. May God help all of us! AMIN!

see what i mean. this really is mature feelings. i now have a boyfriend 9 years older than me. he is gorgeous and treats me like a princess.

...but i want to finihs with him because its not fair on him knowing that i will never have feelings for him that come anywhere near to what i feel for my teacher.

i had a falling out with best mates a few weeks back, they know this teacher is my weakpoint, so they target me through him. They filled him with lies and assumptions. this really made me tick because he really is the one thing that i care about in life and it really kills me to think what kind of things these people told him.

im leaving school in a week. its gonna kill me [maybe not literally] lol. but its going to be the most heart breaking thing i have ever had to do, leaving all that behind. i have been crazy over him for 4 years now, over that time ive matured hugely and my feeling have changed towards him, feelings that went from 'omg i want him, i want to kiss him, i want to marry him, i want him to leave his wife for me.lol' to a more mature approach of 'I love him. I need him. I dont ever want to see him hurt. I want him to be happy, even if it means never having him.'

i personally believe, when you fall in love with someone for the first time and you fall so deeply and you refuse to let go, you never will let go even when you have to. i believe thats what ive managed to do anyways. as much as i want to let go, i refuse to, i think this is where my problem lies at times.

Wow I seriously thought I was going crazy I thought I was the only girl who felt this way. I have a teacher and he drives me wild. We flirt off and on and when we do, it makes everything alright. If I see him walking around the halls at school, I feel so weak and I get really shaky. I also find myself hugging my male friends in front of him to make him jealous. It works because whenever I do, the next day he wont flirt with me lol. When he flirts he'll pass by my desk and purposely touch me like with his leg he'll make sure it brushes against my arm. For valentines day I gave him a gift and a card, that day he told me I was his favorite student. It made me smile, and love him even more. He might not be the cutest man I've ever seen, but he's an amazing person. Sadly, he is married with two kids. But there is obviously something wrong in his marriage if he continues to flirt with me, right? My friends laugh about it or they'll just say "ewwww he's so much older than you, find someone your own age". I want him and only him. I just want to hug him so tight and kiss him and tell him that everything is going to be okay and that I'll NEVER do anything to hurt him. I remember once he grew a little mustache and I complimented him, he smiled and laughed a bit. Another time he decided to shave his head, and again I complimented him. He said "Thank you, my wife doesn't like it, but I'm glad you do!" I couldn't help but start blushing. I want to belive that this isn't real, because deep down I know that I probably wont ever have him. It's just a nice thought thinking about him. I'm constantly day dreaming about him, he gives me butterflies everytime I see him. If "you" [my teacher] ever get to read this, just know that when my heart skips a beat, it's saying I LOVE YOU!

I know how all of you guys feel... it isn't a crush... do you feel his name burning inside of you when someone mentions his name? or when he looks at you, you want to pass out on the floor? or when he smiles at you, u want to kiss him immediately? this is how i feel. i leave school soon and i'm not going to see my art teacher ever again... it's such a heartbreaking thing and i really need to move on but i can't! a tip for all of you... try and ignore this person and shut him out of your life.. i know this sounds really hard but it's working for me! i went to a cycologist about this and this is what they advised. it's weird cos i never thought i would find people who would feel the same! but apparently there is loads! my art teacher is 31, he has brown curly hair, bright blue eyes and a clean shave! its weird who you get attracted to! hang in there girls!! xxx

Yeah I really know how you feel, I'm really obsessed with my teacher and he's like 41 years old and also gay. It's like when I found out he's gay I really didn't care cause I love him too much and still do but I'm trying 2 get over him, CAUSE IT AINT GONNA HAPPEN, so I should stop dreaming and get on with my GCSE's. But the weird thing is that whenever he sees me talking or laughing with another teacher he gets like sooo jealous that he tries to get my attention and stuff. Anyway, I'm leaving school in a couple of months and I'm really gonna miss him and can't imagine my life without him. It's sad but true!

A female reader, anonymous, writes (30 October 2007):

okay, I totally understand where you're coming from- I am in absolute LOVE with my teacher, it's not just a crush- I think I know what a crush is (I'm eighteen anyway!) so I understand you. Except mine is only 24 and not married, so our situations are a bit different. Don't listen to Rhythmandblues, I think what she said about you being lost is very rude, and about your parents? I really don't think that's an issue. I have the most amazing parents and am not lost, but am still in love! Listen, wait until you're eighteen and graduated, and by then, ask this teacher of yours how he feels about you. He's married with kids, so it doesn't sound too good right now, but you never know. And I think you should do whatever you feel with this 'con' guy, trust your gut. Good luck!

Concerning the last post from rhythmandblues2, I am a little too attached to my teacher but it has nothing to do with feeling more sophisticated or "grown up"...that being said I think the last bit of your post was a little condescending. However, THANK GOD you pointed out that 'con' is a creep, and that 'john' is to be respected.

I'm sorry but this is disgusting. Seriously, 'con' grabbed your bum and then thrusted himself towards you from behind? Seriously, I'm amazed that you don't see how blantantly sexual this all is. It's not a good thing, by the way.

A female reader, rhythmandblues2 United States + , writes (24 November 2006):

rhythmandblues2 agony auntI am guessing you are 18 or younger, still living with your parents and attending school.

John, the 39 year old is married with a family and he does not seem like a jerk, but is respecting the boundaries that he should being your teacher and a authority figure in your life and he is not paying you any attention because he knows about your little crush, not because he thinks you like another of his colleagues.

The other teacher con is bad news, and he is giving you signals, and he is going to get you both in trouble with your school, your parents and your reputation will be ruined in your community if you have sex with him or date him or fool around with him.

I am sorry to sound so harsh, but you are just wanting this male attention from your teachers because they are older than you are and have jobs and a life on thier own and you think that if you can get them to like you then that means that you are more grown up and sophisticated than you really are. I kind of feel sorry for you, as you seem to lack direction and focus in your life...where are your parents in your life, what influence do they have for you? You need to set some healthy boundaries for yourself where your teachers and other men are concerned, if you don't know how to do that or don't know what I mean, please talk to your parents about this or a school counselor or a professional to help you understand why it is not OK to have an obsession on a man who is married, your teacher and old enough to be your father, when you are only a girl in school....and to allow some teacher to grope you accidentally or on purpose is considered sexual abuse and is not a funny matter or one to feel feelings of excitement about, this guy has problems and you should avoid him at all cost.
