However, it would be a little odd to date your own teacher!

That could be a consequence for him if he is ever suspected of having an improper relationship with you.
Crushes are powerful things, but they are not love. You are experiencing what nearly every teenager goes through in their school life. Believe me, in 5 or 10 years or so, you'll find it pretty funny (and proberly quite disgusting) that you had these feelings and went to the trouble to write this message. Trust me, and the other answers on here; move on.

Dear Reader,
It would be a diasater if you told him how you felt. If you told him how you felt and he felt the same then you started going out it would mean problem aftr problem after problem. For one thing the age gap is a cause for concern and i don't think that your mum, dad and the rest of the family will be very happy at the fact their daughter is going out with a man aged between 35-40 and what makes it worse is he is your teacher.
Hope everything works out. Good luck.

The age gap is a problem. And the teacher-pupil relationship is a problem.....I also think you are reading to much into hes professional behaviour. And as has been said before I think you are seeing an agenda were this is none.

If he read what you had wrote he would be horrified, he is a good teacher who`s only mistake is to be over friendly with you.
He wants you to get good grades he does not want a relationship with you, and if he ever did have one he would be sacked.
You are old enough to know that teacher pupil relationships are not on and you must realise this is infatuation and not a relationship that will ever be one in the true sense of the word.
Go find a bloke of your own age and one that does not risk being sacked from a proffession he is good at and loves for the unwanted attention of a teenage girl.
Sorry but this is the real world harsh as it is and my words are not meant to hurt you, they are meant to wake you up to reality, that is unless he has done something to make you know he is interested like kissing you.

I agree with the previous responders. I would tell you to let it go.. It most likely won't work and can wind up getting him and yourself in trouble down the line. And as for your update, I am having trouble finding anything in what you added that would change the thinking. To me it looks like, you are just trying to justify going for him because it doesn't add much for me.

Hi,
I agree with Sourpio on this one. You can both still get into trouble even though he's not your teacher any more. And there is the small matter of a 19-24 year age Gap!!!
I think you'd be better off with someone your own age as getting together with Teachers hardly EVER works out. You'll probably just end up getting hurt and I don't think anyone wants that to happen to you.
Good Luck, All The Best and Blessed Be,
Phoebe

reader, anonymous, writes (14 April 2006): No. This is a bad idea because 1) he's probably not interested in dating someone so much younger than him and 2) even though he is no longer technically your teacher, this may still endanger his job if it gets around. Even if the school only keeps a mandate for relationships between current-students and teachers, he may be "grey-listed" unofficially if people think he is solliciting school-aged girls. This will make both his and your lives much more difficult, so curb these feelings as best as you can. Maybe you can find someone else to help you study? Spending a little more time away from him will probably make the feelings die down.
