[@fatcat1414]

It's not uncommon for a student, especially a minor, to develop a crush on a teacher, and it's not like you can stop those feelings from developing. It really only becomes an issue when they become overly vocal about it and/or have deluded themselves into thinking that the teacher likes them back and that the hypothetical relationship between them would be healthy.

[@sqeak6317]

And also when the teacher, an ADULT, reciprocates those feelings

[@daniellasosa6806]

LANCE!

[@ellajulia162]

I agree. Everyone has had a crush that they know wouldn’t be appropriate whether it’s age or things about the person. And you can still like someone. My friends (I’m in high school) literally thought that I was crazy by thinking it was normal that my bf liked me and someone else. He was dating her and he dated me before her. He liked us both but he chose me because I was supportive and told him it was normal. He felt so bad like he was betraying her because of feelings he couldn’t control and she flipped on him. We have broken up but that is not important. They thought I was being a push over until I explained. You can’t control if you think someone is hot or if you have a crush. The important thing is your with the person you want to be with and that you know what who you want out of the people you like

[@zoeab9779]

Just before I left school I spoke to one of my teachers and she told me that when she was a teen she dated a teacher for two years after leaving (at 16). She said that reflecting on that now as an adult she realized how wrong it was, especially as she now teaches children of the same age. She said she felt taken advantage of and even though she was consenting to the relationship at the time, if she could go back she would never have done it

[@erin.19]

when kids or teens "consent" to having sex with an adult they aren't really consenting, because they're (often) too young to fully know what they're getting into, and don't know the repercussions or the fact that it's wrong. especially when this person is some kind of authoritarian figure to them, like a teacher. they think this person knows best and that they should go along with what they say, because they don't have the knowledge to realise how wrong it really is. it's sad that there are so many disgusting people that would exploit and take advantage of people for their own sick needs like this, and i'm sorry that your teacher went through that. glad she told you though so that she can educate people on it, and prevent it from happening to others

[@BubbleBunnyy]

That happened to me but online i was like 13 and this dude who was 20 or something was really sexual and shit with me and I didn’t think it was wrong and now looking back on it I regret the fuck out of it but I’m just thankful that it was online and not in real life.

This is exactly what happened to me, when I was 16 and he was 25 and he was my art teacher. We dated for 2 years as well! But I have never looked back on it and thought it was wrong... I think sometimes it just happens, I looked and acted much more mature for my age, could easily pass for 18+ or older. Now I am 26 and he is 35 and we are still good friend and occasionally meet up to hang out, and he has only ever dated older people since me. I was a one-off situation and it was never his intention to take advantage of me. I can however see why it might appear that way to others, but I feel like every situation is different based on the person and their intentions.

[@hafsahshadow2933]

“That mini heart attack you get when he asks to see you after class” yeah I do that with any given teacher because *I DID SOMETHING WRONG DIDNT I PLEASE NO*

[@CarolinaSilva-rd3ys]

I feel like a lot of TCC people are lacking affection so they want it wherever they can get it from. Sometimes having a particularly nice teacher that actually treats them like a person might just confuse them when they are in that vulnerable state. This is why i think a lot of kids grow out of it, they find friend groups, they find someone who is at their maturity level.

Very this! I was an anxious, lonely kid in high school and had more than one "crush" on teachers that were kind to me. I think it's part of that developmental stage - teenagers pine for connection and understanding, and if their peers don't provide it, they latch onto adults that do.

In high school, my psych teacher gave me 'special attention'... making small talk with only me in a class of 40, winking at me in class while teaching, asking me to do him favors like help him grade papers, clean his desk space after hours, etc. As a 16 year old with low self esteem, he was an absolute dream and I had the BIGGEST crush on him. Over time, his favors grew more and more inappropriate and isolated. At the time, I thought it was normal for teachers to treat students this way. It wasn't until now that I realized his method of treatment towards me was grooming. Additionally, his coworker/friend/other teacher witnessed his attention towards me. I guess that signaled to this other teacher that it was okay to touch me inappropriately and pressure me to travel to another country with him. When you are that young and vulnerable, you soak that attention up, especially with low self esteem. It is only now at 22 years old that I realize how incredibly inappropriate it was and how traumatic it was for me. I still have vivid dreams about both teachers. All in all, just want to say that it isn't always the student's fault for having predisposed issues with parents/authority, which I suspect is usually the psychological root for teacher crushes. Unfortunately, there are predators that hold teaching positions that abuse and seek out these kids in these psychological situations.

Genuinely want to be with them? That’s unhealthy and obsessive and creepy. Not to mention illegal and inappropriate.

[@YouFatF00k]

alize0623 I agree. I actually have a teacher rn who I think its pretty attractive, but its more of just a "oh, you're an attractive person" sort of thing, not a "omg! I have a crush on you". Its completely natural to find some people that are older than you attractive. I mean, lots of girls would usually have posters of famous guys on their bedroom walls because they find them attractive, or like something about them. But to be completely sexually and romantically attracted to them is just wrong. One person here posted a comment about how someone in their school wrote a fan fiction about doing it with a teacher, and the school found out. Apparently the guy almost lost his job because of that girl writing a messed up fan fiction about him. I just realised how long this comment was 😂 I apologize.

I remember having a crush on my teacher, who at that time was 24 and I was 18, but he was engaged and y'know, it was something so unrealistic, I just stopped paying attention with it. It was there, I knew it, I ignored it. That was it. Funnily enough, towards graduation, cause he was our substitute for the last 4-5 months of our final year, he became sort of my best friend. Y'know these teachers designated to be there for students and students can come and talk to them for help for basically anything? He was one of them, so I used to go to him with my family issues, still living at home and all, it endagered me passing my finals. Dude even took his time to drive me to my "boyfriend" whilst we were having a massive fight cause I was terrified of going alone. Obv, it was outside of school times, but he helped me cause he knew my mental issues and whatnot. Broke up with that boyfriend and felt better than ever. Even now, 2 years after I've graduated, I sometimes go to my old school to meet up with him, talk about how my life at home is improving and all and check on my old school. He's like, a dad to me now. A best friend. Someone outside of all my issues who can give me a clear opinion if I need it. It's great. He's a great person and unsurprisingly, the school's favorite teacher. I'm so happy for his new class that they have him, 'cause I know how great of a teacher and person he is! Also fun fact: He married my music teacher this year - they're adorable together and make literally the cutest pair. Plus both were my favorite teachers in school! Wishing them well. :)

True. In all fairness, about half the shittalking is about parents as well. Really, in many cases the parent is as much to blame as the child.

[@Sam-tk6dq]

So I'm a senior and I've been experiencing the multitude of crushes on this poor teacher for 4 years now. One teacher at my school is pretty young, 26 and I feel so bad for him when all the sophomores and juniors (some freshmen and seniors, but not as much) flirt with him, stare at him and/or try to get close with him. You can see his uneasiness, but he doesn't wanna shame the girls so he tries to get out of the situation or be direct with them on why he can not date them. He has a girlfriend and the girls in my school r actually full on jealous of her and I can't wrap my head around it. Sure he's nice and he's younger then most teachers at the school, but fuck. Control your hormones, he's not interested.

[@2bitmarketanarchist337]

Oh god I watched a teacher like that have such an awkward exchange once. Innocently he told a sophomore girl he liked her tshirt because it had some pop culture thing on it that he was a fan of, she said something like "thanks you're cute too, I like your butt" and he just had the biggest *NOPE* expression on his face and then walked completely backwards across the classroom to his desk and was silent for the rest of the period. For the record she would say stuff like that to everyone on the planet. I later went to that teacher's wedding (long story) and the ordained minister in his speech mentioned that the teacher and his now wife had been together for seven years and that they hadn't even kissed in that time.

[@KidsWithGuns1992]

they're teenagers, this is likely the first time they're experiencing these things. they're also too stupid and naive to handle the situation appropriately. fact is, teens get this all the time cause well yeah their hormones are out of control and they're young and dumb. the onus is on the adult in the situation to handle it approrpiately.

This is why I understand students crushing on teachers (even though I never had one), you're either in the phase where "you want to marry everyone" or you can't control yourself because of hormones. Putting "control" and "hormones" in the same paragraph as "teens" is also an oxymoron, they can't help it more than we could at that age because we had no idea what was going on.

The big issue with any age gap relationship is the power imbalance. financial/ social/ sexual. It can lead to some pretty messed up situations. Hell if the age gap is big enough, most will assume their is some kind of exploitation happening. I want to give adult couples the benefit of the doubt, but some people are good at hiding that kind of abuse :/ * I'm sure some gap relations work out, but I've personally never seen it happen.

[@snakewithapen5489]

I don't have an issue with ages gaps in relationships, IF both parties involved are mature and responsible grown adults that know what they're getting into with that commitment. I agree that some relationships can appear very predatory, and it's kind of worrisome that someone older would be taking advantage of a younger adult. It's really not my place to tell people what they can and can't do in relationships or to get involved at all, what you do is only your business. But personally I would be a little concerned about a 20yo in a relationship with like a 35-40yo- because people who are 20 are barely more than teenagers, they may not know what they're doing or be mature enough to handle a relationship like that and make smart decisions. While a 30-35yo with a 45-50 year old, I maybe wouldn't be quite as worried about- it depends on the specific relationship, but I think that once they become an established and mentally grown adult with experience they would be able to handle themselves and know if the situation was becoming toxic or predatory.

[@daisymay156]

I think healthy age gap relationships can work if everyone involved is at the same place in their lives, but that's a fairly unlikely "if" - ie, a 35 y/o might be looking to settle down and have kids, but their 25 y/o partner might be starting a new career or saving money to explore the world. People tend to want different things as they get older, and that can erode even a perfectly healthy age gap relationship over time.

[@sophiaboulet501]

[@chaos9364]

@Annabelle MacDonald Oh! I have a great example... My step-mom and father have a gap of 11 years and it's alarming to some, but rest assured that they met when she was a mature adult and they did date for a while before marriage. Their relationship is actually really well balanced and my father has become a much happier and better person through it. I greatly appreciate my step-mom being in my life because both of my biological parents were abusive in the past, and she also had a rough childhood and is a really good listener. She's also rather learned in mental health(having dealt with it personally) and has helped me, as well as my father and younger brother, learn about our ADHD, coping mechanisms, and we're now diagnosed and better off. I know that there are lots of examples of bad turn-outs with age-gap relationships, but this is a time where it made both people happier. C:

Take it from an Old Person - it's fine to have a crush but don't try to act on it. At best, your teacher will reject you (as they should) and it will be awkward. If your teacher is into you? Either you will have a horrible breakup of some kind, such as being transferred to another class, or you'll end up in a really unequal, unsafe relationship. It seems like it'll be fine at the time. It will never be fine. Fantasies and reality need to stay separate!

What really makes me uncomfortable about this is that I used to have the biggest crush on my drama teacher. My EX drama teacher, I should say. He was entirely kind to me and was closer to me than what is appropriate between a student and a teacher, and this was probably extremely noticeable to literally anyone. He always said that when I graduated, we'd travel together. I didn't even notice how inappropriate this was because he was the only friend I had at that school, so I fell head over heels for him. Recently, he got arrested for sexually grooming a number of underage female students. TLDR; if a teacher is super close to you for no apparent reason, don't be a big stupidhead about it

this is a weird one because i think it's pretty normal for teenage kids (essentially little bags of hormones) to start feeling attraction and it tends to just get placed on the nearest reasonably attractive person. it makes sense that this could easily be someone you see everyday like a teacher, who is more mature than the relativley immature kids your age. on top of that, attraction to authority figures speaks volumes about your previous relationships/interactions with authority (i.e. your parents) which is why most of these kids will feel they have 'mommy' or 'daddy issues'. used in quotes because this ranges from absent parents to genuine abuse. as long as these kids aren't actively looking to date older people, leaving them vulnerable to predators, many will grow out of these attractions in their own time. kids are kids. as long as its not the teachers initiating these crushes, its not really harmful. i think the harmful things is the communities like the tcc tag where alot of people bounce their emotions around and things can get warped. ive seen abused kids start beliveing that abuser 'loves' them because they think posts about age gap relationships being ok applies to them. kids still need to be taught about healthy relationships. sure it makes a whole lot of us feel genuinely uncomfortable because we see it from an adult perspective, but these kids are just trying to figure out alot *sorry for this absolute unit of a wall but its just an opinion

[@Kitsuiko]

One of my six graders is trying to date another one of my sixth graders by showing off how good he is at math and she's helping him with his English and during break time they draw llamas together and make superhero comics - if they weren't shipping themselves I'd so ship it. But, of course, that all comes from the category of this being sincerely one of the more pure things I've ever seen. Outside from the "WORLD IS ENDING!" part I think the pre-dating that my kids do is okay; mostly negotiating who buys who chips leaning on each other whenever they're allowed. Navigating the social dynamics of breakups, who you like, how you show it, how you get over it... it's hugely important (because it's my life goal to never see a student of mine on a toxic incel community post)

[@MayonnaiseJane]

I may have been using the word "date" euphemistically. The pure stuff is cute, agreed.

Lol. NO!!! God No. Married to *A* High School Teacher. Definitely not mine. I'm 9 months older than my husband and we didn't meet till we were both at University together and were BOTH STUDENTS. God no. NO. That would be so wrong. When hubby taught at a boarding school, we lived there in like, a little mother-in-law house attached to a boys dorm. "House Parents." I'm sure some of them were objectively attractive, particularly to girls their own age, but I couldn't tell you which ones, because they were "my boys" as in "my children," as in "oh my boys are all getting good grades, I'm so proud." Hell, one of them was 19. Still a child to me. Our "responsible older brother" child who could be left to look after the others sometimes (according to the rules too, because he was our house Prefect) but a CHILD to me. They were in our care. "No girls upstairs" was a big rule. You want to have a lady friend over, you had better be hanging out with her in the COMMON ROOM. There was ONE kid I didn't really think of as a child, and that was because he had these drag-out screaming verbally abusive calls to his long distance girlfriend about what he was entitled to "as a man" and refused to mind me because I was a woman and honestly all I could think was "we need to do something about this abusive misogynist asshat before he goes off to college and becomes a campus rapist." Fear that you're going to commit a very adult crime is not the reason you want your teacher to stop thinking of you as a child.
