Someone once asked...

“Hii, I am a college student. This is my first year and it's been 3 months only since I joined. And I don't know about other colleges but my college provides us with this mentor-mentee facility where we can talk to an assigned mentor regarding any problems we're facing. So the issue is that.. I've started developing some sort of feelings for my mentor AND he's not fricking old or something like 30 or something...he freshly joined our college for teaching. I don't know his age but he is not too old I'm sure but he's older than me obviously maybe like 6-7 years...but (he's also a teacher btw but not mine.. like he teaches other sections) But he doesn't know I like him obviously I've not told him that too... It feels so weird to me..I don't even understand this feeling.. like if u ask me why I like him so much? I don't even have an answer..I just do.. And I've like tried to forget about him and move on from my feelings but it doesn't work.. (and I've fricking cried for this man.. because I don't know..I was so frustrated with these feelings..and sometimes I miss seeing him...so sometimes I would wander past his office..just to have a glance of him) My friend says that I should confess to him...she said even if he's going to say no. It will be easier to move on than never telling him at all. It's a good idea but I'm scared like what if he hates me or something like that.. like it's a college environment and professional relation so I'm a little scared... What do you guys think I should do?”

Someone answered with kindness...

Babe, I get it. We all have a crush on our professors. Heck! I too have swooned over one.. But the best thing is to move on. Confessing will make things awkward for you. Since he's older, and your professor as well, he's probably gonna say a no, and you'll be in a awkward zone for a long time. Admire, crush from afar. Have fun! Don't fight your feelings. It's pretty normal for you to feel this, nothing wrong about it. You're not supposed to act on each and every intrusive thought and feeling that you have. At times, for some matters, it's best to be cerebral rather than a hopeless romantic! Ciao!
