Ever Had a Crush on a Teacher?

I was thinking about my English Lit. Professor, from when I went back to school in 2012 - 2015, this morning on the dog walk. No idea why he popped into my head.

Dude was so freaking smart, like a Sith Lord of the English language. And he was an Anarchist, which I found attractive. Mad crush.

(I posted this on the: All for Fun! Who is your silliest, strangest dream romance crush? thread, but it didn't pop up. - Maybe it's in the dead letter office.)
 

I've had teachers and professors that I greatly respected and one who became a close friend, but never a crush. Not that I'm above that sort of thing. It just never happened. I did have a female advisor who fawned over me more than I thought I deserved, but I could never tell if she was just that way, or if she was hoping for something more.

Well, it likely doesn't matter to you at this point, but since you never found out, it's pretty much whatever you want to remember it to be.
 
No.... I went to an all girls school which meant all teachers were women.

Even tho' I loathed French lessons, I do remember how we all 'loved' the French teacher - she was young and had the most beautiful long auburn hair.

She always wore polo necks and one time she was in the middle of us and we were all around her. She scooped her hair up and put it in a ponytail, which was when we all spotted a great big safety pin in the back of her polo neck - like it was too loose and she wanted it fitting better around her neck.

No-one said anything to her, but we all felt sort of embarrassed, more for her I think.
 
I went to a military academy in grades 9, 10 and 11. They were all very high strung, by the book teachers and instructors. I have always said that I made a huge mistake by not going there for my senior year. I most likely would have received an appointment to West Point. I wanted to come home and graduate with all my friends. One of my huge regrets.
 
Yes. A young woman, my music teacher in the 6th grade. Her husband was my Englisch teacher. Unfortunately she became pregnant and left school.

Two, Miss McKenzie in Primary 3, Kowloon Junior School...I was 7 at the time, she'd be in her mid 90's now.
And a Sociology professor in college.....she was so far above my frame of reference or experience that I couldn't actually consider
myself worthy of thinking "crush".....but she was such a hot, brainy, poised and sophisticated lady that my Y chromosome hormonal
function just wouldn't subside.
 
YES! On 2 of them, in fact. My high-school English Literature teacher and my college Biology professor.

Interestingly, they were very different types, physically. The lit teacher was petite, green-eyed, freckled, and wore her rust-red hair very short, and the bio prof. was tall, brown-eyed, bronzed, and had long honey-blond hair.

Do we chalk that up to maturity? I'm not sure, because I still look back at the literature teacher with more fondness.

Maybe it was more about personality for you.
 
I've realized since posting this that, given the topic, I should have mentioned my crush on my 7th grade US History teacher and that my erstwhile boyfriend was also a US History teacher, though not mine, of course so, not sure that one counts.
 
I guess so. I married one of my college professors. He gave me a B in his course (economics). I made an A and had the paperwork to prove it. So I called and gave him a piece of my mind. When I finished threatening to sue him, he said, "I did that on purpose. I wanted to ask you out. Of course I'll change your grade back."

After he did that and proved it, I went out with him. But not before I gave him the standard speech of if you ever hit me or otherwise abuse me, I will call the cops and you will go to jail. Or I can call my dad or my brother and you will soon be on the wrong side of the grass. Then he had to tell his religious beliefs because I would not go out with someone and risk becoming "unequally yoked" (don't ask).

I was 22 and he was 35. We are still good friends after all these years. We divorced after 3 years of dating and 3 years of marriage. My stepdaughters are his children from his first marriage. Both families, mine and his, saw no real good reason to dislike each other, so we didn't and don't.
