How to get closer with your teacher crush

A lot of y’all asked me to make this post so here is it

Be interested and focused in their lesson

Have good grades in their class

Don’t be afraid to ask for help if it’s really not a subject you are good into

Be intelligent, don’t act dumb to get their attention, they will see as a bad student

Stay after class to talk with them about class or ask them about something concerning homework, eventually you could start talking about other topics not concerning school

Be yourself, don’t fake your personality, show them the real you

Be bold and confident, keep eye contact, talk to them in the hallways, start conversations…

Get how to contact them ( their email, number, social media), ask them if they can give it to you do you can send them a project or an additional work you would like to have their opinion on and boom now you have it

Find the place where they usually stay in the school and try to be there as much as you can, of course being there and not doing anything is unnecessary, so try to talk with them, if it’s the library you can start talking about books and a longer conversation will come

Join a club they lead, it’s a great new experience for you and a good way to be closer to them

Give them a gift and the end of the year, be original

Seek a friendship with them not a romantic relationship, by seeking a romantic relationship you will most likely end up being disappointed

Once you know them better, see if you share any similar interests, it’s a great conversation starter

Make inside jokes that no one around you understand, I swear it’s so funny

Make them think of you when they see something you like by talking about it a lot or posting about it if they have your socials, that way they will think of you every time they see it and even send you stuff related to it

Ask them for suggestions, it can be about books, movies, songs, places, games,etc

Be polite and respectful

Be interested in learning things about them

Good luck everyone! If you want more details you can ask me with the questions option or text me :)

i can’t stop thinking about the fact that she asked me if i was “down” when i went to see her ??? i’m not depressed i’m just in love with you lmao

WHAT DID SHE SAY??? GIVE US UPDATES

i’m so embarrassed 😭😭😭

i brought her cookies and didn’t plan to stay but i ended up staying the whole of lunch and we were just having our usual conversations. and somehow it came up in conversation that she had a student a few years ago who wrote her a love letter before he left ??? and she was like . that was kind of funny

and then i for some reason decided to come out with “i used to have such a crush on u in like first year “ ??? like ???? why would i do this ??? i made it clear to her that it was a “former “ crush tho

and she laughed and said she never noticed but she was flattered . and then just started talking about gillian anderson lol

and i was leaving i was like i’m so sorry for telling u that and she replied with its ok happens to all of us , see u next week ???

then got a uni acceptance so i sent her an email which she hasn’t replied to , but knowing her she’s probably sleeping and will reply on monday

not sure what to make of this tbh but not a bad thing ?? and she said the cookies were good so

Physically I’m here, but mentally I’m in a small classroom at a liberal arts college in Vermont maybe in the ‘80s studying Classics and toasting to living forever
