We also have laws that forbid adults to mingle with children the same way couple do. It doesn't matter that he is human and has feelings, they have a responsibility to the student, the school, the parents, and society to conduct there behavior in an approriate way: no if nor butts.

A teacher is a mentor and as such is a responsible adult in charge. They are like your Mother, your Father, your Doctor or your Minister. They have a role and a function and when they are teaching young people, they are there solely to Teach. If they are "Human", and they have "a beating heart", then the appropriate thing for them to do with that heartfelt emotion is to teach you in your studies, nurture you and protect you as your family would. When a teacher crosses the line, he or she is taking advantage of a young person's trust and faith, and abusing them and the trust an faith that we have ALL put in them to take care of you.
I can assure you, perverts have been in the teaching system for the time that I have been on the planet, 50+ years, they were in the system when my kids went through it - they are 22 and 26 - and I'm quite sure that your teacher is being inappropriate. A grown adult does not approach a child sexually or involve them "emotionally" unless they have ulterior motives. If he or she has approached you, they have crossed the line.
Please do not put yourself in a position where you are EVER alone with this person. If you have any concerns about how you feel about this teacher, or any concerns about how he has treated you, please discuss them with a responsible adult that you trust. Tell your Mom and Dad, or tell an adult in your family, and they will help you figure out if you should be around this teacher, if they should be teaching at all.
