writes: I know this just seems like another one of those cliche stories about a student liking a teacher, but that's the way I feel and I can't help that. I'm 18 and I think I have a crush on a teacher who is single and roughly 9 years older. I know that asking him to do anything would be equal to asking him to risk his job, so I decided to not say anything, ever.However, I have recently had the urge to tell him how I feel after graduation or even possibly wait and visit him a year or two after graduation(just to make sure it's real) and ask him out. At the same time I don't want the potential relationship, friendly or further(I really, really want to be further), to end in a burning inferno.What is your advice in this matter?

I think you should tell him after graduatation if your are going to tell him. i told the teacher i liked when i was 14, and i totally regret it now as i was such a kid then and he saw me as a child, as i was still at school sort of thing. once you have graduated you are no longer a child, so i think it would be better.
Hope it works out for you xx

If you are close to graduation, and he's nine years older, that's not too bad. Maybe after you graduate, you could just keep general contact, and see if he returns the favour. If he does you could try taking things further. Don't give up on finding someone else in the meantime though - keep and open mind =]

reader, anonymous, writes (26 April 2009): i think if u really like ur relationship with your teacher now than maybe u should keep it that way. i mean, if u try to make something out of nothing than things can just end up badly and ull lose ur friendship u have with him now. But if u are willing to risk ur friendship and u are sure that there is a possibility that there is something or could be something between u to, wait until u graduate and talk to him about it. dont do it while he is still ur teacher, cuz thats just wierd and he probably has a "no dating students" rule...just make sure u think of all the possiblities of everything before u make a decision
