TITLE: How do I [19F] get over my professor [20/30sM] that I've never even talked to? [X-Post from r/relationships]
POST: This is the second semester I've had this professor, and I'm completely infatuated with everything about him. I've always been really shy, so I honestly can't even bring myself to talk to him. I've never really been one to raise my hand and talk in class, and that hasn't changed in his class either.

He's young, attractive, extremely smart and funny, i know he's not married or anything, and from what he talks about in class, we have a lotttt of things in common. All of that makes it hard to see us being together as unrealistic.

I'm not sure if i should try to bring myself to talk to him [I'd have no idea how, I'm pretty quiet/shy], or just get over it. This is my last semester I'll be able to have him as a professor, so i only have until spring. any advice? :(
TL;DR: 
infatuated with a professor i've had for two semesters, never talked to him, but i know we have a lot in common. should i just get over it?
