writes:I have a bit of a problem I just want to know if my teacher likes me, one of my best friends, I told her everything about this situation and she definitely thinks he does.She can tell because he's always teasing me, saying my name a lot, treats me better than the other students, gives me hugs, always compliments me, gives me more privileges, let's me borrow his jacket when I'm cold. I'm really confused, he's married to someone else, and he's older, and he's my teacher.I really need advice, should I just go on with this? I mean it's almost the end of the year of school, but he does know where I live, my cell number, and my home number.I almost always see him out of school.HELP

Giving you his coat and hugging you is against the law in some cases, it isn't very popular with adult life: knowing that a teacher was hugging a student for random reasons.
This is probably too harsh but I think that he doesn't fancy you but is just getting a kick out of watching your reactions to his movements.

 Leave well alone. He shouldn't know where you live and your mobile number as he is a profession who is employed for the purpose of educating you. If he really does fancy you and wishes to pursue a relationship then he truely is a sad loser for so many reasons. He may seem attractive to you at the moment but he is married to someone else which means he would be a cheat to do anything with you. If he cheats on his wife, he would cheat on you with another girl. If he fancies a girl of your age then he has personality problems - it is easy to impress a teenage girl when you are in a position of power but perhaps not so easy to impress grown women his own age? In the UK it is illegal for teachers and pupils to have personal relationships because the law makes it clear that it oversteps the professional line of trust that goes with the job of teaching. I am sure there will be similar rules or policies where you live.
If he makes a real move on you then you ought to tell your head teacher/ principal because he presents a potential threat to young women such as yourself. Don't be flattered by his attention, it won't be exclusive to you and some other girl will have his eye next year...

 Im not sure of the actual age difference between the pair of you, but i would leave this one alone, at least untill you have left school. You could of course just be misreading the signs, and misinterpreting his friendly ways as something else. He could also get into alot of trouble for giving pupils the come on, and being a proffesional he would no this all to well.
Good luck x
