writes:I have been enrolled in a French class for the past couple months. My professor can't be more than 6 years older than me, and I feel as if there's a connection between us but I'm unsure of how to approach it. Obviously he's not going to make the first move since he doesn't know where I'm coming from and how I'll respond to it. I've talked to him a couple times during his office hours and he responds quite differently to me than to other students. He tends to laugh with me, curse in front of me, refer to his personal life, my status in the class, etc. For instance, a friend of mine asked him a question today about work that hadn't been submitted to him online. She said he responded icily and was very standoffish. I approached him last week about helping me write a letter in French to a family member and he altered an assignment and assigned it early to cater to what I asked him to help me with. I want to subtly flirt with him for the remainder of the semester then approach him once I'm out of his class, but I also don't want to tarnish my reputation for being a dedicated and hardworking student. Are there any ways to distinguish whether or not he is attracted to me? I'm not the kind of girl who is going to wear revealing clothes and try to appeal to his sex drive, I'm genuinely attracted to both his physique and his mind and I'd really like to get to know him. Do I approach him throughout the semester and try to get to know him then explain to him that I have feelings for him? I'm really just worried for making a fool out of myself and having to face this guy for the next 2 years. He's very handsome but strikes me as a kind of shy/geeky type. I'm just really nervous about how to approach this since I've never been the one to pursue guys. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. How can I get on friendly (and then some) terms with my professor? If there are any professors or people who have gone through this, please let me know! This isn't some lustful crush, I truly want to get to know this guy and establish something with him.
