text: the old head of of my old college would up marrying a sixth former he taught.\n\nnumerous people (one or two that I know) wind up in some kind of relationship during the five to seven years that people are in school. It's human and statistics dictate that out of all the kids and teachers and all the time they spend together you will get relationships blooming... it's inevitable.\n\nthe results too can be disastrous or really beautiful.\n\nthe teacher has a unique power over their partner because of how the relationship is likely to have developed. that's why it's frowned upon, because that kind of influence can wreck someone's life. I think the situation might be moot because you don't know what they teacher thinks about the girl as opposed to what he thinks about his job and his reputation.. there are just too many variables to give a sensible suggestion about what to do.\n\ngirls have crushes and crushes come and go. she will embarrass herself or not as the case may be. she might succeed in snaring him....\n\ngood luck to all parties concerned! :-)
