In my college, the topper of our class and our new madam are in love. There is a lot of talking is going on in the college about it between students. Many of my classmates says that sha has a crush on him. I don't know it's true or fault. But if it is true , is it okay

I think this is wrong... a teacher should be more professional than at.

no its not right at all. we should have some morals in life. A teacher is like god, as she imparts knowledge to us. If a student can love teacher then can a brother love sister?, can dad love his daughter?...............no we are not animals. we are humans we should live with moral and dignity. please advise the student against doing such an immoral act.

This is not right at all, no matter which angle you look at it. It is just not the proper ethic in a school. I wanna be also real in looking at the matter. If the student is a non-minor then the relationship should be given a chance. One must sacrifice though. A possibility is that one should transfer to another school.

No it's not alright for teacher, to go out with a student, in high school or in college, the teacher can lose her job, they are paying her to teach the students, not to have a romance with one, of here students, if the principle finds out the teacher is dating, one of her students, her job will be lost.

I think if they truly love and respect each other they will both wait until the student has graduated. Then there is nothing that can stop them and there will be no one losing their job.

They are not rushing. The student is about to be graduated next year. I don't know for sure. But when some of his friends always told him about this, he says nothing..Does it mean that he also likes her ?

I think most probably it might be infatuation than the love. I think infatuation can happen in such situations.

May be. That's why they are not even talking anymore.

Student-teacher relationship is never allowed. And I think that teachers should always remain as good role models to their students. However, there are instances wherein both the student and teacher really falls in love. And I guess the best that they should do is either they wait until the student graduates or one of them gets out from the school.

Hi, I don't think there is anything wrong in having love between student and teacher. One of my relatives has married with the professor in college. Thank you for the response.

They are always in love but not materialistically, it is divine just like a gurdian and a follow one.

There are no certain rules on the law of attraction. But considering our moral standards, this is not really good. We cannot choose people we love, love most of the times just happens however, there are some considerations to weigh and think about. attractions can be dangerous. But if its real love they feel for each other, there is a perfect time for that.

yes. They already quit. Or maybe for a while till the student completes his study. But, that's fine. thanks for your response

I think such relationships are always very risky and are generally frowned upon. A teacher is usually quite a bit older than the pupil and is, by definition, quite a bit wiser. This can often lead to the pupil idolising the teacher due to the extra knowledge and authority the teacher has. For this reason alone, you can't be certain as to the true feelings involved. I know you stated that it was at college which makes the pupil an age where they should be more able to take a responsible view of things, but the same things probably apply but to a slighly lesser degree. And there are always the problems of favouritism and classroom whispers to be over come. Although these relationships aren't wrong in themselves, I think that great care and thought should be put into it before entering into one.

Honestly, it is okay. We humans can't help it if we fall in love with someone. In their case, as long as they don't go out dating , it's alright. Because they still have to carry out their own duties properly. If they are meant to be together in future, they are meant to be. They have to know their limits.

Hi friend, this kind of love affairs misleading other persons and it is the bad role model to others. Teachers must realize the importance of their role and make a good friendship with the students, but this kind of love affairs are not good and it will spoil both the teacher and student life. Hope both of them will realize this and avoid their crush

I think it is normal and okay a teacher and a student be in love, as long as they are not violate one with other. In my country, it often happens and some of them get married. I think it is okay, no matter the man or the woman who loves at first.

There's nothing wrong with it. If it was high school that would be a lot different. But they should not get involved until the student-teacher relationship is dissolved and he's no longer in her class. But they should check to see what the school's policy is about these types of relationships. I'm sure this is not the first time it's happened.

They love each other, it is ok. Juliet and Romeo love each other, but just because of their families they can not get married. It is cruel for us to give pressure on loves. Love is their business, they do not hurt others. I think they are not fault.

It can happen yes. But its not appropriate and it's very unprofessional. The student may have higher grades than the others if the teacher likes that student.
