writes:I think my English teacher is attracted to me. I am a 19 year old college student and he is a man in his late twenties. My boyfriend is in his class with me. I feel like this teacher either doesn't like me being with my boyfriend because a couple in the classroom would be distracting or he somewhat likes me. The quarter is almost at its end and through the weeks, the teacher picked on us all the time. In group work, he would make sure my boyfriend and I were seperated. During discussion, he would look at me then clear his throat or stutter if I catch him looking. My boyfriend is oblivious toward it and assures me it's nothing but I can't help but think something is happening. A while back, I saw the teacher at a bank and he smiled at me. At some point in class he reminded everyone not to call him by his first name until the end of the quarter then looked at me. I know he is a part time employee and it's ridiculous to think about these behaviors but if anything bad happens, what am I to do? Reply to this Question

I agree with the previous two aunts and will add that there is nothing you've said that makes me think he is attracted to you.

 Honeypie nailed it. In class you are separate, you have a BF and he a job to do.
Apart from what she says I have a sneaking feeling you enjoy that fact, true or not, that your tutor might fancy you. You appear to be making it all add up to that.
You also end by saying: "But if anything bad happens, what am I to do?"
I'm not sure what you imagine might happen, but take care not to let yourself be in a position where anything bad can happen.
If you see troubled waters then steer a course around it. The alternative is a whole mess of trouble for everyone.

 He might BE attracted to you, but splitting you up from your BF in group work is not that strange. IF he as a teacher have picked up on you two being an item - it's because you are more focused on each other than the class. It's like trying to herd cats.
It's great that you have a BF, but WHEN you are in classes you are TWO separate students, and there to learn.
As for whether he likes you, I'd say ignore it. You have a BF and he has a job to do, which is teaching.
