Well girls, he's gay. He's partnered. I feel like he led me on. I'm so stunned I can barely think. Oh well. Moving on.... LilVixen

I plan to. Tomorrow. LilVixen

Yeah, we'll see. Someone else last night asked when he planned to have the grades submitted by, and after he answered I asked "so then we won't be your students anymore". He said "nope" and gave me a nice grin. But yeah, it could all be flirting too. If it is, then I'll just know not to get so carried away next time, but you know how you me a man that just presses all your buttons by being in the same room, in a really good way? This guy's got it going on, that's for sure. LilVixen

After the final a group of us plus him are going out. Depending on how he acts there, I will ask for his number so we can keep in touch after class. I really have a feeling this is going in a very positive direction. Just need to get the class over with! LilVixen

Interesting, I don't think he's been using me, and I really do think he's made an effort to get to know me that shows he really could be interested.....just waiting for the semester to be over. LV

So, I've let time go by, class is almost over, and I'm still wondering what to do. I am pretty much head-over-heals at this point over my professor. His pattern of talking a lot to me, eye contact, and on a few occasions touching my arm or hand....I'm pretty sure he likes me, but once we were talking about relationships in general, and he said he doesn't date students. So I don't know if that was a hint for me to back off, or if after the class is over I'm not longer a "student" so it's ok or what? How do I know if it's ok? Do I just go for it after class is over? I guess I could ask for his number, but that's kinda forward and scary. All my friends that I've talked to about him think he likes me. It is so hard having to be the one taking the lead, because I am totally not used to that. Any last words of advice? I'm really crazy for this man, and I want to know for sure if the feeling is mutual or not. Thanks, LilVixen

Well, it seems rather forward to just come out and ask if he's seeing someone, you know? I am thinking he'll want to be protecting his job and such a direct question might make him uncomfortable, and I wouldn't want to do that! I really appreciate all the feedback so far. I don't want to mess up any real chances I might have, you know? I really, really, really like this guy!!!! LilVixen

Yeah, I've wondered if he is seeing someone. However, he has never mentioned a girlfriend, just that he goes home to his dog. He seems quite open to talking about himself, but I don't have the nerve to ask him things like "are you dating anyone?" During lecture he comments about his looks, being a little out of shape, and why would anyone find a 40-year-old attractive. And I sit there wanting to blurt out that I can't believe there isn't a long line of women breaking his door down. He really is hot. Not Playgirl hot, but a real man, and he is very handsome. He said before before that he is not married (maybe he's divorced), no kids, and when he has mentioned his own social life, he only mentions friends, no girlfriend. Honestly, why has he told me so much about himself if there's no interest. Could he really be that open with just anyone? Does he want me to know these things? Can you tell I'm smitten? Definitely dizzy. It is actually hard to concentrate in class sometimes. But I'm not changing sections. No way. LilVixen

Thanks for the reply. I know what you mean. I have dropped plenty of hints that I like him, and I really think he is playing it safe. I know I have to wait until class is over. The last thing I want to do is get him into trouble (or myself for that matter). Fortunately, I'm getting straight As so he knows I'm not trying to get his attention to take advantage of him for the grade. So, any advice on what to do once the class is over? Should I email him and spill me guts, or be more nonchalant and just ask him out for a drink, or do nothing and see if he makes a move? Ok, I'm so confused. Gotta get a grip. LilVixen

Ok, so, I'm a student who has a major crush on my professor. I know, happens all the time right? Get this, the class is anatomy. It should be chemistry, because I really think there is some serious chemistry going on between us...but I want to know if it's just me, or if the feeling is truly mutual. How do I know? I've never had a crush on a professor before. Here are some details. Help me be objective!!! First of all, we're both "older", meaning I'm not fresh out of high school, and he is just a little older than me. So, if we had met some other way, it would totally be ok to communicate my interest. We make a lot of eye contact during class. During the "lab" part of class, he spends a lot of time at our table or even next to me, talking to me and the students with me, but a lot with me. Again, a lot of eye contact. We've discovered a few things we have in common, and he's always bringing that kind of thing up. He has even asked me to stay after a test once just to talk to me about something totally not related to the class. Sometimes he's gotten really close, either face to face, or by my side. It's all I can do to keep my hands off. His smile just makes me melt. He is drop-dead gorgeous (and I think he knows it). He is not married, has no kids. He is really funny, not to mention smart (he's a professor...duh). We were talking once and he mentioned that other students in other classes wanted him to go out drinking with them and he was like "no, I have a life". I asked him if that meant he didn't make friends with students or was trying to tell me something specifically, and he said in I don't remember how many ways that he wasn't telling me to back off or anything like that at all. He even hinted that he realized he might have hurt my feelings. That surprised me, that he would even care. So, how do I know if the feeling is mutual, or if he's just playing a game, or just really friendly, or I'm just completely wrong? Of course I will keep my distance until class is over. I guess I am afraid that once class is over, he'll move on and forget about me. What do I do? Help me! Chasing after a Fox, Vixen
