More than just a crush on a tutor

I have had feelings for one of my tutors (in his early thirties) at my university all year. As he had recently resigned for another job in a different city I decided to ask him out to dinner before he leaves. When I asked him he seemed pleasantly surprised and said that he is trying to think of a time where we can have dinner before he leaves. He said he would get back to me the following day.

The next day he told me that his answer is no but yes, due to the small town we live in where everyone knows each other and him being a recognized tutor from university. He gave me his phone number and email address and said that we can have dinner next year in the city if I want to contact him (coincidentally I was planning to further my study next year in the same city he was going to). The last days before he left were awkward to say the least. He would no longer maintain eye contact with me in class and is tense whenever we interact.

I have lost all perspectives on this situation and am confused on whether he is interested in me or not. Was this his way of letting me down gently or is he genuinely interested? Any advice or suggestions would be appreciated.

Emzy1591 agony auntI can see where he is coming from, because dating students is frowned upon. He probably just feels a little awkward about the situation,maybe you should speak to him or call him and ask him straight whether he likes you or not.

Stop. Now. Your going to get hurt. He's only thinking of himself now, which means if you do meet him he'll still be thinking of himself and that can lead to anything if you get my drift. so yeah, just dont. :) sorry i couldnt be more help.
