Does My Teacher Like Me Back?

Question - (29 August 2008) 8 Answers - (Newest, 26 September 2008)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

I'm not his student anymore but he comes and helps out at my high school in the summer sometimes and I see him there.

Anyways I've liked him since I met him which was 6 years ago. I found myself staring at him when he was around and a lot of the time I'd look at him until he turned in my direction. I'm not shy with guys that I like my age but when he talks to me I'm shy all over again!

He teased me like 3 times but when I was his student he teased me a lot more and he calls me by a different name other than mind a lot of the time. He's touched me on my shoulder to greet me a lot of the time or just because(:

Does he like me? I know this isn't a lot to go off but I don't remember a lot anymore.

You have a really good point. But it's not like I'd do anything with him even if he did like me too. I think I just like him as a teacher/person and not in a crush way anymore which is good.

PsyCookie agony auntSo why you want to know if he likes you or not?

Please don't try to level up your ego. It's not good.

abbeymom agony auntSo are you saying you basically liked him since you were uhhh 10 years old? Wow. Umm heed the previous posters advice. Acting on impulse because you have a crush or feel he might like you could ruin his life.

I know that sounds harsh but there are laws. If you were eighteen it might be different but even then just because he isn't your teacher anymore, he's a teacher. Many parents of the children he teaches would frown upon him dating a student and it could cause him and his life a lot of problems.

Think about that.

You also might want to think about his family. Is he married? What about his own kids? How old are they? How old is he? He must be like at least 15 or 20 years older than you. There is no way he was 20 when you were 10 teaching you. Sorry that doesn't seem feasible. So think about those things.

Perhaps you should stick to boys your own age. I'm sure some great guy out there closer to your age would love a chance to get to know you better.

Hi - It is so easy to have a crush on a teacher. But, realistically, you probably do not know him as well as you think - his age, is he married or dating, his habits and out of school personality. Also, although you probably do not see it this way now - Any adult (teacher) who would be interested in dating a teenager (student) is messed up and is looking to have an unhealthy relationship with someone they can control. I am sorry to be so blunt - but this is not a relationship you want. If you did date him, I can pretty much guarantee that you would look back at it with regret.

The real issue is probably that you are bored with the boys at your school - maybe you can join extracurricular activities/find a part time job that can help you meet new boys.

PsyCookie agony auntI think before anything, you shoul read these articles:

http://www.dearcupid.org/question/why-falling-for-your-teacher-is-never-good.html

http://www.dearcupid.org/question/a-student-is-in-love-with-me-how.html

http://www.dearcupid.org/question/teachers-eh-discerning-between-teenage-crushe-and-actual.html

But in my opinion, I think you should wait until you're 18 until you do anything. From what you've told here, it only seems that he is being friendly, and nothing more. So if you want to go ahead and ask him if he likes you, do it until you're legal of age. Then no one will get in trouble.
