should I go?

heres the dealio....im studying for my GCSES and im having revision classes for English. BUT the teacher that is teaching the classes i happen to have a major crush on and im 100% sure he suspects. my friends say the c;asses are mainly for people who are getting C's and below ( i get B/C)- anyone can go though. BUT my english teacher today told me i could go to the classes, she sounded like she was encouraging me to go, so im going.
the problem is the teacher i like will think im only there cos of him. (i have no intention of anything happening...just want to forget about him but im having trouble doing so..)
so should i go to the classes or not?

Go. If you think it can make the difference in your grade, it's worth a little bit of embarassment.

Yes he may realise you have a crush but he is a teacher & has probably had it happen before. Who cares what he thinks your reasons for attending his revision class are? It will benefit you & you'll probably get better grades because of it. You should go.

i had a friend who had a crush on her Science teacher, after about 2 months, she didnt feel that way anymore, so my advice to you would be, go to the classes, GCSEs are more important, im going to uni next year but since most of my mates did badly at high school they are either working full time (with no proper future prospects) or redoing their GCSEs...

go, the teacher wont do anything apart from teach what they planned to teach, regardless if you turn up or not.

what if he has a chat with me at the end? should i deny fancying him (im a bad lier) hell see through my deception and tell him i wanted to learn or should i admit it but say i wanted to go to the revision classes to learn...

well even if you do admit it, its not like eaither of you do anything about it...he has to remain professional and you don't want him to lose his job do you? :wink:

IF he asks, you which i very much doubt he will,

tell the truth, say you do/did have a crush on him, but you really do want to improve your grades,

teachers know how to deal with these situations and can tell you how to 'get over' this crush

Hmmm i wish i had asked my friend (girl) who was exactly in your position, how she got over it, dont think you're being childish...

do you have a teacher who you can talk to about your personal issues., like your tutor, maybe they can tell you what to do without getting 'your crush' involved.

only say something, if he talks to you about it, thats if you think he knows.

my form tutors actually reli reli reli nice shes great but i cant imagine telling her...well i do talk to her but we only have convos every now and then.
shes in her mid 20's and shes a drama teacher, shes very pretty too...
so she sounds ideal but i would find it difficult to tell her

well if you're really stuck about what to do, you should talk to your tutor, she'll be very understanding...
