I think a teacher may like me? What should I do?

@ADTR, I admire you for admitting that you misjudge the situation before doing something that might harm an innocent teacher's career. Thank you.

I know it feels good to get attention from an older good looking guy, I don't think I would mind that one bit. But you need to beware, these things get out of hand very quickly.

Sexual predators are extremely manipulative, sadly I know firsthand. If other students are noticing it I don't believe you are imagining things. Now there may be plenty of reasons why this teacher has taken to you. They may be platonic. The only way to know for sure it's too talk to him.

It's perfectly okay for you to have a crush on him. I had a crush on my swimcoach in first grade. But any relationship is absolutely inappropriate.

Well there's really no use in lying to myself so i can believe something that really isn't there and will never be there haha. In all even if this teacher was a perv or whatever it wouldn't even be worth taking on the risks/factors etc. that come into a realtion ship anway. Thanks everyone for your support! Im thinking i should remove him from my Facebook and block him from my Instagram and all social media and what not just to send a clear message his way i want to keep our relationship strictly professional. What do you guys think?

Okay so to start things out I'm 16 years old in high shcool and my teacher for one of my courses is single and got out of a divorce a few months back and I've kinda had a crush on him since the beginning of the year. No big deal. Not like I was going to act upon it or anything. Anyway over the past few weeks he's came and pulled me out of a few classes (not his own) to ask me whats wrong or if im doing okay and its become a daily thing. He follows me on Instagram and likes my photos on Facebook as well. He always tries to help me and if he needs to use someone as an example in class he always chooses me. People have teased me about it and asked me why he likes me so much and people give me weird stares when he calls my name to do something. I'm openly gay and he knows this and casually brings up gays in class allot. He told me yesterday that he would always be there for me if i needed him. I would like to think that he likes me even though it's kind of wrong in a way. It isn't like hes 40 or anything that that hes really young. I don't think anything is going to come of it but these feelings I've had towards him have drastically grown over the past few weeks since he's basically showed that he cares about me in some way or another. How should I handle this? What do you guys suggest I do? What do you think he feels? He's just trying to be nice right?

Bro - let's get real - he just wants to get you into his bed. I know you say you have a crush - but this won't end well if you give into his flirtations. He'll hurt you in the long run b/c you should never get into a relationship with a teacher - I'd recommend - back off.

ADTR - First of all you have to tell me your name because calling you that seems weird haha. I think you should delete him off your social media profiles. At least that will stop the comments that make you question his feelings. I think people are a bit confused with this situation overall so Id like to clarify - has he made any intentional move that makes you believe he is into you? Or do you generally think you read too much into things?

You are young, got loads of time to get serious with some guy just don't do it now - i bet theres plenty of guys your age that would love to get to know you. Put this guy to the back of your mind and move on

Haha it's Alex. And no not physically besides the stares and calling me by my first name in class (he doesn't do that to anyone else) he just treats me different and it makes me want to wonder why and this is the first conclusion that came to my head. I think i just read the whole situation wrong but theres still some people here that think otherwise.

Hi Alex nice to meet you! I think you come across as a smart lad and I would trust your gut instinct. We can only access base on the information given to us - you are the one living it and know how it feels. We can give advice but it will only be one sided.

It could be something simple as he does feel maybe you need more attention because you are vulnerable? But I would defo distance yourself from him on social media just to make things clearer and set boundaries
