A female United Kingdom age 26-29, anonymous writes:

To put it briefly I have a massive crush on my female teacher.

I obviously realise it's just a crush, and that it's just a thing that can happen with students and teachers. How do i make it 'go away'? She's an attractive, young women and I can't help but look at her and think wow! I get butterflies in my stomach when I see her and i feel really stupid for having these thoughts as she's my teacher and I see her at least once every day. It's got to the point where I can't actually ask for help in class as I instantly go red when she talks to me and I feel it might effect my grades. I just want these feelings to go away but I can't look at her and not think she's beautiful!

This is also a time in my life where I'm kind of coming to terms with my sexuality (not based on this crush) and it's not helping at all!

Can anyone offer me any friendly advice as to how I can get past this situation? Thankyou in advance :)

Gauntlet agony auntAgree with WiseOwlE. Your are on hormones pick, sort of second state (transe) that puts everything out of shape. Hormones during teen age is almost as strong as the psychedelic LSD, you don't understand well what's surrounding, and don't understand yourself anymore. Don't jump to conclusions about what you're really feeling, and about what these feelings really mean. Enjoy being high some days without always knowing the reason why, enjoy being light and flexible, enjoy being young and a little bit naive (that's way better than being blasé and bored), enjoy swimming in the great mystery of the world. Answers will come way too soon...

And for your teacher: it might just be admiration. She is sort of a perfect you, pretty, sympathetic, graceful and clever, everything you aim to become. Then it's not impossible your emotion could be your craving to transcend yourself as to become "that woman" and no other one.

Hormones during puberty drive you crazy! Trust me, it will wear off. Let it run it's course.

No problem checking her out. After-all, she's always at the head of the class. What choice do you have!

Just keep it to yourself.
