writes: I have a slight dilemma. I've recently developed a rather large crush on a teacher at school. He's never actually taught me but I see him around all the time, he's so young that the first time I saw him I thought he was a student. He'd be in his early 20s, and I'm 17, and due to graduate in four months. I've been non stop thinking about him for a few days, ever since my school sports day when I was helping out in the teacher’s tent and had been watching him from a distance. He then disappeared from sight and when I heard someone call my name I turned around and he was only a couple of meters from me and our eyes met. We just starred for a few seconds and then I looked away embarrassed. I'm not sure but I think he may have continued looking. Then he came up and stood beside my chair and began a conversation with a teacher. I would never try to pursue something with him as I know the law, and I don't want him to lose his job. And it wasn't sleazy; it just felt like any regular guy when your eyes meet. This wouldn't be a first though. I see him around all the time and look at him and he looks at me, but we've never been closer than 2 meters away until this sports day. What should I do? Wait around for graduation and see if I 'run into' him again, or just completely get over him?

Just completely get over him. You know the law and everything, so no preaching here.
But it seems he's not really interested in you, or probably is straining himself because you're just a student.
You really don't know the guy and it's just a physical attraction, so just keep this in mind. Besides taking law into count, you don't really know the guy at all.
You don't want to ruin his reputation or job, so really get over him and move on. A crush is hard to get over, but not impossible. Start seeing other guys and don't compare them to your teacher.
Good luck
