Deal with son teacher

11 replies

Lara11 · 08/12/2022 22:42

Son is in Year 3 and am struggling with having to see a senior member at my son school with whom I had a crush...I think the crush mutual...he made some moves but and i thought that was out of pity/ to check my say...but nothing ever gone far other than greeting...but I struggle with my composure...whenever I see him.then he gets the wrong message ..I feel like he monitors my mood. I thought being professional he should not react to anything but the other day I was trying to avoid him and we accidentally happened to check out each other from a far distance..and now the next afternoon he made sure he came by and ignored me without greeting me and was ignoring me...I know I haven't been really greeting or talking to him because I am shy and feels like this is the way I am dealing with this crush.. it was one week gap ...I would have thought he'd forgotten or should ignore that .help !!

What a love story; our eyes met across the playground :-D
Pls let us know if anything progresses, I’m a sucker for an illicit love story.

I'm not sure I understand - you say;

"he came by and ignored me without greeting me and was ignoring me"

What makes you think he is interested in you? There doesn't seem to be much evidence that he is.

What sort of moves did he make for you to think he likes you?

GreenwichVillage83 · 09/12/2022 10:27

Are you single? If so, why are you ignoring the crush?

Aussiegirl123456 · 09/12/2022 10:38

What are the moves he made?

A teacher making a romantic advance towards a parent will be on extremely dodgy ground around abuse of their position. Try not to encourage anything as the potential consequences wouldn't be great for their carer and you wouldn't want to be a part of that.

It's more likely that he had 100 things on his mind and you just weren't one of them.

I'm a teacher and, quite honestly, having a crush on parents is just something I don't have the time or capacity for at work!

Hoppinggreen · 09/12/2022 13:08

This is probably mostly in your head.
On the off chance it’s not it would not be a good idea for him to get romantically involved with a Parent so do him a favour and keep away

ryantubridysthumb · 09/12/2022 13:20

Oh god, just stop. Your OP doesn't make much sense but a teacher will not be able to date you. You will embarrass yourself.

Lisa1m · 06/11/2024 23:42

Any progress? What happened after that? Would you like to update ys? Was it an another crush or what?

SilverChampagne · 06/11/2024 23:44

They were very subtle moves he made, op, if he’s never done more than greet you? (You and every other parent, presumably!)
