He's a teacher in the language school, where I learn English. He's almost 20 years older than me, he's married (although in separation) and he has a 12-year-old daughter. I feel as a silly teenager because I'm falling for him. I'm having a crush on him. It isn't falling in love yet, but it's painful. He ignores me and then he confesses very intimate things to me. He talks to me about his marriage failure, splitting up with his wife and his depression. It seems he doesn't love her anymore but he's concerned about his daughter. I offered him friendship, going out for a beer to talk but he didn't answer. I know he likes me but he told me I intimidated him. I'm asking myself now if I should seem more stupid in order not to scare men. HERE'S A QUESTION TO GUYS: DO YOU REALLY FEEL INTIMIDATED BY INTELLIGENT WOMEN? I had heard it before from a guy I liked, that's why I'm really concerned about it. That's the first problem.
And the other one is how should I get closer to him. I'm not one of THEM, one of the girls who seduce married men, who break families. I wouldn't do anything to spoil his family happiness. But they aren't happy. He's unhappy and he asks for help reaching for me with one hand. But he's pushing me away with the other one. I just want to help him so desperately. I want to be his friend. He does like me! Why does he behave as if he didn't care? Please, help!
