How Do I Tell My Parents That I Am Dating My Professor

My professor is staring at me all the time...?

I have noticed that my professor in one of my classes is always staring at me. I pretend to be looking at the slides he is showing and his eyes always dart to meet mine...Am I just his focal point for the class or...?

We met at a bar and talked like friends a few weeks ago (I'd been in his class for a month when we'd met). He always seems to remember my name even though I have never spoken in his class, ever. There are about 40 other students and he only remembers a few of their names (he always has to ask for everyone else's name...

Am I just reading into this or what? Don't get me wrong, he's attractive, but parent-student relationships are illegal!!!

I am in college by the way.

How do I tell if my professor has a crush on me?

Ahhhhh...er....fly, don't walk away from this one, sis. Aside from the potential for ruining his career, another more philosophical note: he's at exactly the right age to be vulnerable to new bright eyes and a young bod. You're old enuf to know better, right? If he's a good professor, leave it at that and leave it alone...harmless can become harmful when it segues into little coffee dates and longggg office visits, and then his vulnerability and your [pardon me for this one, sis] female victor's sense of power will mess up absolutely everything for everyone. Don't count on "nothing would come out of it" being cast in bronze...little huggy-poos can turn into career-destroying clinches in a heartbeat.

And on a more cynical note...with criminal justice as a major, being known as "oh her, wasn't she the one who got Professor Whatsit in deep doo-doo?" won't do your future career any good...that kind of stuff travels with you to your first job. Don't get famous for being famous!

Should I tell my literature professor that I'm falling for her? I'm a girl.

Instructor student relationships are fine as long as there is not a conflict of interest, if you finish the class and say something to her after your grades are posted you save her the awkwardness that would result from a possible bias.There is nothing you would lose when admitting your feelings for her after the conclusion of your current Acedemic semester. This also helps you determine if your feelings are a result of a short term crush or something more.Besides, people regret what they don't do not what they do in life. Just make sure that you don't force her into a decision between her Acedemic career and your feelings for her, which is what you would do if you told her while she was your instuctor. Also people here seem to have a misconception about relationships like this, there is not a bias as long as she is not the one grading your assignments to begin with.

I want to ask my professor out after I graduate. Should I do it?

Speaking from personal experience - absolutely! But keep your expectations in line. Why do you like him? Are you purely attracted to him, or do you actually want to get to know him better?I had an English professor who I greatly admired. I wouldn't call it a crush but it was close to it. I asked him out for coffee before I graduated to talk about my (then daily) existential crises. He kind of stayed aloof until after I graduated; since then, we check in with each other from time to time. I got coffee with him almost a year after I graduated and he offered me some really great advice about grad school.I wouldn't say these were dates but I did ask him out initially because I was weirdly attracted to him and we had an intellectual connection from our first day in class. If I had stayed around my college, I might have pursued him. I think that since you've graduated, you are totally free to pursue whatever relationship you want with him.I also don't think he will look down at you at all for being so much younger than him. From someone who is dating a man 20 years my senior, I know for certain that age is just a number (with the exception of a few situations) and that I am more mature than lots of people in their 50's, and more immature than some teenagers I know.Go for it! Life is all about establishing genuine relationships and allowing things to play out to their fullest. If you feel compelled to explore this relationship, by all means (: forge ahead.

What should I do if I'm gay and I like my professor?

The same as you should do if you are straight and like your professor. Look but don't touch. Relationships with those who have power over your grades and academic progress are a bad idea.It's a bad idea when it's an opposite-sex relationship. It shouldn't be any worse if it's same-sex, but it inevitably will be just because people find forbidden gay relationships much, much more salacious than the equivalent straight relationship.If you are convinced that this person really is the one for you, and you are sure they are gay or bi, wait until you've finished your studies. Then there's no weird power dynamic going on, not so much risk of it being a disciplinary offence for the professor and there can't be any accusations that you've benefited from the relationship.

Falling in love with ur professor?

Ok this sounds straight up nuts but I'm liteally in live with my professor but don't kno if he feels the same way.. how do I tell him I want to become friends first?

HELP, I have a crush on my professor!?

Okay. First of all, I'd like to clarify that I'm old enough and mature.
I'm at my final year in uni. At the beginning, he was like any other professor to me. His class is very boring, although he's funny and he jokes around sometimes. He's definitely not my type. He has long hair, a beard.. like he haven't shave in ages!. His office is a mess! It's full with heavy books. He is very quite and likes to set alone in his office for hours with little light doing absolutely nothing!.
Anyways, I went to his office to ask him to sign some papers I had. It was the first time I see his face closely. He has the most gorgeous blue eyes I've ever seen. Actually, He's freakin' HOT. I wonder how he would look if he shaved and got a little cleaned up.
I found myself thinking about him all the time. I went back home and I typed his name at Google, I found his page on facebook. I wasn't planning to spy or stalk him I was just a bit curious.
However, I found that he is a normal person, not a freak as he looks at school. He has lots of friends, he's very social and has lots of interests.

THE THING IS, I really can't stop thinking about him, and that's starting affecting my study.
I know that it's illegal for a professor to date a student. Moreover, I'm a Muslim and I'm not into dating and relationships. He's probably an Atheist.
He's definitely older than me, but he doesn't look old at all.
I'm an average looking girl so I don't think I'd ever get his attention and he would risk his career for me.
However, I know that I should NEVER let him know about my feelings, but I really really want to. I don't know how.

What should I do? What would you do if you were in my place?

If you think that I should let him know, what's the best way to do so without embarrassing myself?
If you think that I should totally forget about him, how can I do that?

Serious answers please : ) I appreciate it.

My College Professor Hits On Me?

It is immoral unethical and almost certainly against college policy for this man to hit on you, even if YOU had started it; he has to GRADE you; he can neither be objective not appear objective in whatever grade he now gives you, or anyone else in that class.

Write down everything you can remember from the beginning. Because he sounds dumb enough to be vindictive if for any rational or irrational reason he becomes unhappy with you. I'd suggest you talk confidentally to one of HIS peers or better yet a dean, not a classmate, to get a perspective on this and him. How can you focus in class, or any interest in the subject or field, or feel that any grade you get is not due to his desire to use you?

Stupid man could have waited until you were not his student. Are you 18+ at least or is he utterly brain dead? Even if you are, he has a LOT of incentive to hide this or discredit you if he thinks the administration will object to his breaking the rules; but he is apparently too dumb to be discreet or patient, until the relationship is NOT one of such skewed influence and responsibility.

For the record, I am NOT against pre- or extra-marital sex between consenting adults, and do not think sex is a sin. My objection is his betrayal of you and his teaching responsibilities - you can do so much better than this guy!
