ArchangelX Posted April 14, 2003 Share Posted April 14, 2003 Ok, I'm in college and I have this really nice professor. Allot of people hate him because they think that he is mean. Well I like him even though there is a big age difference, he is so nice, and he acts so much younger than he is. I've had him for two years and this year I saw a change in his behavior tword me. He doesn't do allot of things, like try to touch me or look at me when he is teaching, I mean is this because he can't, cause he'd get in trouble? When I talk to him outside of class, I go to his office for help, he is so nice and when he talks to me he always REALLY listens, he looks me right in the eyes with this endless smile on his face. He just kind of leans back with his hands behind his head, he never tries to carry on the conversation but if I do he is always there happy to continue talking. There is never any strong looks or anything, when on professional grounds. It's when I'm sitting in the hall that really gets me. Before this semester if he saw me he didn't really acknowledge me and just kept walking. Now however when I look up when he walks by he is always looking down at me with this "I know somthing you don't know look" He either says "HI" in a silent voice or waves. It sounds stupid, but it's strange. It's just somtimes when he looks at me, the look seems to have purpose. Is this his suttle way of saying something. I mean he is a teacher and maybe he is scared of a lawsuit if he is to obvious? I guess I'm asking "Is he being suttle in hopes I'll bite so it can go farther, or am I stupid and there is nothing there? Link to post Share on other sites
Tony T Posted April 14, 2003 Share Posted April 14, 2003 You have written nothing to indicate he is anything other than a nice guy. If he was personally interested in you, he would have made more definitive overtures by now. Alternatively, he may approach you about something more once you are no longer a student of his. You are correct that it could cause him untold complications if he were to try to get something going with a current student. He's probably used to female students having crushes on him. I wouldn't take anything about him seriously until he makes a move...and that's most likely not going to happen. If you are really interested in him, wait until the semester's over, you receive your grade from him...and then go to his office for a "special" consultation. Link to post Share on other sites
Author ArchangelX Posted April 14, 2003 Author Share Posted April 14, 2003 Thanks for you reply, your most likely right. The only reason I ever thought it is because he is so much different then he used to be tword me. He never did any of these things, like I was just a number. Don't worry though I asked him to write me a letter of recommondation for college and he jumped at the chance. Then when he found out that I was going to a similar city as him he told me all about it. I'll see what happens and keep ya'll posted. P.S. I don't think that he is used to girls hitting on him, most girls in the school hate him. He's not very attractive, I like him because he is so nice and smart ect.....
