If your "good conscience" is saying don't, then listen to it. It will save you and him from getting fired.

thankyou for that.

I warned you about this during your stay at his place with his wife!I hope it's all coming from you and not him. I hope he hasn't given you any small signals of affection as if he was grooming you. I hope you think about that.Sure crushes happen but no you may never act on this one.He is married, you are young, I think you see him as a mentor and we can fall hard for mentors out of respect, admiration and of course that they spend one on one time with us, making us feel particularly special. If his intentions have been honest than all is well. In the meantime use those mentoring skills to help yourself develop those characteristics that you admire and share with those who may need your assistance.

Hey...so it sounds like you got a bit of a crush!
Think of the reality of it. Does he seem to like you? Are you two very close, like best friends? Would it be proper for you to tell him how you feel?
Crushes come and go. Its not wrong for you to like a guy thats 30. Hey, my bf is 30 years older and I'm 17. Things will work out for ya! Good luck and toodles

Just enjoy the feelings of this major crush. You can fantasise to your hearts content over him, and you will. But don't let him know you feel this way. Try and be mature. You have to, your career obviously is to be considered, as well as his. His being good looking, and a nice person who has taken an interest in you, are powerful reasons for a 16 year old to get a crush. Crushes are wonderful, and I am sure this won't be your last. Just enjoy it for what it is, don't try to take things further, and nobody gets hurt. Behave now girl!
