I am going to the local community college where I live and I am 17 I am not very good at science, but I feel like I have a thing for my professor. He's older but he's funny and charming in an odd way. I have been having dreams about him, and I told one friend and she kinda just made jokes. I haven't told anyone I like him, but should I do something about it? Maybe say something to him

hello friend,,,,i understand ur situation,,,,,i am going through something similar right now....but my conclusion is that you should not tell him about this, since this can only bring shame on to you and to that professor.....i am really sorry for saying this....but that's how world works...u just can't have everything u wish to have in life....i am sure u will find someone more cuter and far better in all ways than this person....one day...u may even think stupid or pity on urself for having feelings for this professor....but don't feel bad about yourself,,,,most everyone goes through something like this.....One thing I learned so far about life is that... the most difficult to control in life is ur mind....good luck...May God be with u....

regardless, you definitely shouldn't tell him until you're out of his class.

well in most cases students normally develop crushes for a professer or teacher because they feel that the boys they know or hang around with are not on the same mental maturity level as they are. if you find this is the case try hanging out with someone else. as far as this professor I suggest not telling or hinting to him as odds are he will turn you down. due to this is his profession and his source of income. any type of affair could possibly jeopardize that. anyways you only know how he acts around you as a teacher. you might not have the same feelings for him when he is not acting professional. for all you know he could be renting out his moms basement and have an alcohol problem;p jk lol. but just take it easy. don't be rash with your decision no matter what it is. but do keep in mind both outcomes to your decision and protect your heart either way. best of luck

What would you hope to gain by telling him? Lets say all your hearts desires came true and he said he likes you too and wants a relationship with you... what then? Having sex with you would be statutory rape! And I get the feeling this is not something the American authorities tend to take lightly. Do you really want to get him into trouble?

What would most likely happen if you admitted your affection for him is he would pat you on your head, tell you he's flattered and that you're sweet, but you should find someone your own age.

fallingrace67 is verified as being by the original poster of the question

Note: I have been in college for three years now, I understand how the teacher student policy works, that's why I'm asking to begin with... Maybe rather than saying something I could give subtle hints...
