hi guys^^ imagine that you are a teacher and you fall for a student. and he/she feels the same way for you. would you have a relation with him/her without people know?^^ about me i would try to finish that classes year without get involved with him bcs didnt want him to have problems. but if our love was true we would try to wait till the year ends and be together then. if we couldnt control ourselves we would do things very carefully to dont hurt no one. what about you guys? what would you do?^^ please share^^

Hi sweet love, you are right love is not in our control. It can happen anywhere at any place. But I would rather not love my professor even though he is smart and attractive because he will keep on instructing me to do things even outside the class. I want to be totally free from the class world when I am with him outside. But he will still end up teaching me things like a teacher since I am his student and he will forget there is another world as well My professor just wants to have his favorite student with him all the time and not his sweetheart

pupu you have a relation with a teacher?^^ ahah you say that you are his favourite student but not his sweetheart?^^ can you tell me more? ahah now im curious^^ is good that he is smart and attractive^^ but be careful sure^^ im not saying that he doesnt like you^^ maybe he does but still you are right being with him only outside classes^^ and before get involved with him be sure that he likes you really^^ and isnt just using you.

yes sure there are some rules and they shouldnt be together but if they fell and really love each other isnt wrong^^ as long as they do that outside school^^ or when classes finish in the end of the year. but feelings i guess isnt something that is easy to control. about many teachers dont do that i dont know^^ i heard already some stories about students and teachers that fell in love^^ love happens in many places so^^

Oh golly gosh no! That right there is really risky... and kind of creepy. You could get fired, or, I think, arrested if you're found to be having relations with a student. If I did happen to like my student, in the way you explain it, I would really try to find someone else to fall for. If they come up to me and ask me if I have more interest in them than just a normal friendship, I would lie and say "Of course not." But if it gets to the point where I can't sleep at night because I can't stop thinking about them... I would try to find professional help. All in all, I don't want to be arrested or fired. :)

ahah i see^^ you would try to find someone else to love ^^ or ask for professional help? well that could be worse^^ and sure would be normal if you couldnt stop thinking about that bcs you loved him ahah^^ anyway you are right its risky and you could get fired or be arrested^^ but if you hid it maybe nothing would happen^^ ahah about being arrested i dont agree if both are in love^^ they should be free to live it^^ but without everyone knows^^

When you are in love you will be ready to sacrifice your life, forget getting fired or arrested Lol But I can say you are worried enough about things so you will not fall into student teacher relationship trap very easily
• Portugal

Well first of all I'd like to disclose that I'm myself a student and I think it'd be freaking awesome to date a teacher, specially if she's hot. Secondly, I have crush on two or three teachers in my college and as they are like three or four years elder to me, so i won't mind hooking on with them. Now in case I become a teacher(which is highly unlikely)and start loving a chick in my class, then I'll first of all take time to think that why I'm so attracted to her. If i discover that there is really something special about her and i just can't live without her(I know is sounds gross),then there is no backing down. If your love is true then I don't think that there is any need of fearing people and all. I mean what would you tell yourself after five or ten years?? I let go someone who really loved me just because I didn't had guts enough to admit it in front of all?? Hooking on with your student surely will be gross and absurd, no doubt in that. But letting go someone who really loves you just for the sake of public will be far much gross. So listen to your heart and do what you think is right for you.

Exactly but being a teacher is the last thing that I'd want in my life. BTW I think you are a teacher yourself ...right ?
• Portugal
25 Oct 10
i like your answer^^ ahah is funny that you say you have crushes on some of your teachers^^ and thats normal that you wouldnt mind to hook up with them bcs you say they are almost your age right?^^ so wouldnt be a crime at all^^ and if you were a teacher and loved a student and he felt the same way would be ok^^ is like you say we have to listen to our hearts^^ and when you say would be gross well at least you would be doing what you wanted to and be happy^^ and is true that later on you could regret to let go of someone that you loved and that loved you too^^

ahah yes is good that you would have a relation with her^^ and is true that god listens to us^^ and you say something right that is we must not lose a chance to be happy^^ and we must try always^^ love happens rarely so when we have the chance to find that special person we shouldnt let him go so easy^^ we should always risk and try everything^^ so we wont regret^^

Well I would like to answer this by telling that when I was in my school days there were two teachers I had crush on one was my HINDI teacher and one was my MATH teacher they both looked extremely hot and really beautiful I used to never attended any class except Hindi and Math I used to concentrate properly but she used to think that I was concentrating in her class but she didn't knew that I was concentrating on her and ya if sometime something happens like that that my teacher fall for me or I fall for my student if the love is really uncontrollable then I would be in a relationship with her.....

well, if we really love each other then we'll just decide that i would finish my studies first before we let the people know about our relationship. because we all know that it is not allowed for a teacher to have relationships with his/her students. just like you would do. and just like what you said, if we really love each other then we can wait for the right time to come.
• Portugal
25 Oct 10
thanks eelennah for agree with me^^ yes would be better that just when the school ended people found out about the relation but could be together hiding from others^^ and is true that in a true love both can wait for the right time^^ if someone found out the teacher could go to jail or get fired so^^ really better to hide^^

That sounds like a really tough situation to be in and I don't know how I would handle a situation like that. I think there have been lot of stories in relation to this in the news and some teachers have actually lost their jobs over it! It's nice when two people fall in love with each other but I suppose it's the job of the two parties to decide what they want to do. The way you would handle things sounds logical as well as appropriate. You just cannot tell when love is going to grab a foothold! Well, good luck to both parties, that's what I say! Andrew

25 Oct 10
yes andrew that isnt an easy situation^^ and thats true that some teachers lost their jobs and some even got arrested bcs of fall for a student. what i think is unfair bcs both were in love^^ so both should be happy together^^ and about the way i said i would do thanks for agree with me^^ but i guess that wait till the year ends wouldnt be so easy ahah i guess both parties couldnt take that^^ im not in this situation but if i was would be complicated^^ but i dont study anymore also im not a teacher so it wont happen^^ at least in this lifetime ahah^^

Hello sweet, I used to have a crush on this teacher, but I never told her since i need to study first. that's because we were actually all boys in the school. but probably i was right since there aren't much women then. after i graduated from college, that's when they allowed women in that school. am so freaking angry about it. but i did experience co ed in college
• Portugal
25 Oct 10
ahah thats normal that you had a crush on your teacher if there were no other girls there ahah^^ anyway sorry that when you graduated that college also started to accept girls too^^ is normal that you got angry with it ahah i guess was a bit boring that wasnt girls there^^ what you mean by co ed in college? you mean you been with girls in college how? bcs you said that just when you graduated they allowed them..

This would be a difficult situation to be in. if i were a teacher with feelings for a student, i would probably have to keep it to myself. i can't see how anything good could come from a relationship in that way.
• Portugal
25 Oct 10
a good relation could happen if your student fell for you too^^ isnt bad that love happens. doesnt matter where^^ what is important is to find someone that really loves us and can makes us happy^^ thats what matters^^ and you could have a relation hiding from others while the year didnt finish. all would be better than end it dont you think? or dont risk? then you would regret^^

ohh...i kinda had this experience when i was a practical clinical instructor. that time my bf was jealous but i didnt pursue the feeling because the student was still a student for me.
• Portugal
25 Oct 10
ohh i see^^ a student and you started to have feelings for each other^^ and is normal that your bf was jealous but let me ask you something. if you were not his teacher would you maybe have left your actual bf and be with that guy? bcs i know that you stopped those feelings bcs he was your student but if wasnt maybe you wouldnt have stop it right?

This is a very sensible matter. You will find a lot of people supporting it. Number of people against is as many. It depends on man to man. What seems right to me may likely to to be wrong to you. But love knows no rule when it has to happen it happens. If a teacher or a student like each other,it is very tough to resist the feeling. But both should remember their responsibility first. I know many teachers and students who love each others. Some of them even got married and happily married.
• Portugal
25 Oct 10
yes love doesnt have any rules^^ it happens^^ and if a teacher and a student fall for each other they should be together^^ if they are in love^^ thats what matters to be together^^ yes they should remember responsability too but they could meet outside school^^ and no one needed to know about them^^ and im happy that some that fell for each other married and are happy now^^

There's nothing wrong with that,, unless you have patience and wait until you finished your study. There are no rules for that as long it is true love, then no one can hinder that feeling. aja!
• Portugal
25 Oct 10
yes thats true^^ there is no rules^^ and no one can hide^^ ahah and i dont think if you fell for a teacher and he felt the same way you could resist to your feelings^^ we cant fight against feelings^^ it just is the way it is^^ so wait till the year ends wouldnt happen probably ahah or for sure i can say ahah^^ anyway i didnt fall for a teacher ever^^ what about you?^^ ever had a crush? ahah

that would actually depend on a lot of things...is the student really young...are you married at that point in time..no problem really with falling in love with a student but we have to look at a lot of factors...to make sure no would get hurt.
• Portugal
25 Oct 10
yes i understand what you mean^^ should see how their lives were first and just then decide^^ and sure if was too young like 15 years only and the teacher was like 40 would be a bit dangerous i mean is still too young maybe to decide what really wants in his life^^ if is like 17 and the teacher is like 30 we can accept that bcs both are young even have a big difference but with 17 we can decide already what we want but with 15 or less i dont think we are ready^^ so you are right is nothing wrong in fall in love but need see also other factors sure^^

I would also wait till the year eds and be together but thinking about it, it is reallly disgusting. Fall in love with teacher? It is inappropriate!
• Portugal
25 Oct 10
ahah you say thats disgusting? well i dont think so^^ if both are in love why not?^^ what matters is that both are happy and in love^^ isnt innapropriate^^ love can happen in many places and without we plan. we cant say i will love this guy and it happens. isnt like that. love just happens and we cant choose or avoid^^ so im happy that even you dont like the idea you would be with the person^^

i saw many related cases here in our place,teacher-student relationship and the end point they get married just to save the teacher's dignity..
• Portugal
25 Oct 10
really zoe? marry just for the teacher dignity?^^ well i guess that is to protect the love they have for each other^^ and for the teacher dont go to the jail if the teacher is like 30 and the student is like 17 ^^ i guess if they love each other is ok that they be together^^ and they marry just for protect each other i guess^^ i didnt know that were so many cases of students and teachers^^
