He's gone.

Okay, I'm a 15 year old girl who has been depressed for the past few months.

So there's this teacher who I have got on really well with over the past year. I've known for some time now that he was going to be leaving but I don't think it ever really sunk it. Until today that is, because it's been his last day.

He's been there so much for me at school and has been really helpful and supportive. It got to the point where I would go and see him every day for advice because he was literally the only person I could talk to.

Now he's gone I don't know what to do. I have no way of contacting him (his school email was deleted today) and he's moving to the other end of the country so there's no chance of seeing him at all.

I just don't know what to do because he was everything and now I have nothing.

Add them on facebook.

He's not allowed to add me.

Facetime?

But he doesn't teach at your school anymore

Could you not add him on Facebook and send him a message asking for his email address?? In my experience there is nothing wrong with emailing to stay in touch even if you are still at school!

Sorry, but this all sounds a bit weird. Unless he was going to adopt you I see no reason a teacher should get so close to a pupil behind their parents back. He's not a psychiatrist or your school friend. He's an adult male and you are a school girl.

To be fair before I left school a few months ago I was really close to one of my teachers. When ever I had a problem with anything she would always do her best to help me. We got on really well and there is nothing wrong with it. I have her email address and I will be keeping in touch with her!

Out of interest would you feel the same way if you found out she was a lesbian and her girlfriend was your age?

To be honest it would be weird but her husband works at the school as well and she has children so it hasn't really been something to consider!
