But the other day me and my mate were chatting and she started to really offend him, he wasn't there, and i wasn't really taking much notice. But i didn't realise but he heard our whole convosation as he was in the room next door. he hasn't said anything to me but i can tell he is pissed off with me because everytime i see him in the coridoor he never makes eye contact and rushes past me. I don't know whether to go and talk to him or just leave it?reply please :) x

I guess i need to look at him as more of a teacher than a friend.
Thanks for the wake up call Collaroy.

 Hi,
sorry mate,but say nothing to him. He is paid by the education department to be your teacher not your friend.
If he is sore about it then he will get over it, but he is an adult and your parents have put their trust in him to educate you not befriend you.
A 16 year old girl being friends with a male teacher is not acceptable under any circumstances. Buckle down and pass your exams, when you leave school you can talk to him and apologise then. If another teacher found out you have such a keen interest in him you may just find yourself sitting opposite the principal with your parents being told you have to move schools. And my experience as a teacher in a high school I guarantee you other teachers will find out in a flash!
Male teachers are becoming a rare breed in schools, if his intentions are honourable believe me you are going to be the one whose life is turned upside down if you persist.
Don't do this.
good luck

 I agree with the previous post. You should talk to him about it, especially if it's bothering you enough to post a question about it. You could trying stopping by before or after school and saying you'd like to talk with him and to apologize for not saying anything when your friend was criticizing him. Just let him know that you don't share her views...

Well if it was your friend doing all the bitching then you have nothing to be ashamed off.
If you really feel uncomfortable with the situation, then talking would be a good way of breaking the ice.
Ask him if hes ok and tell him they were the opinions of your friend and not you.
