Author lovemyprof Posted November 6, 2008 Author Posted November 6, 2008 I have to start speaking to her ...know her better... all this hasn't happened yet.
Lizzie60 Posted November 6, 2008 Posted November 6, 2008 What do you mean when you say "aggressive manner"?? Well.. I'm not talking about physically agressive, I mean.. he came to me and told me I was attractive and he showed me he was interested.. like it was the way he came to me.. the way he looked at me.. etc..
Capricciosa Posted November 23, 2008 Posted November 23, 2008 From the perspective a professor in her 40s, I think there's not much of a chance for you. I've had students with crushes on me before, and although it is flattering, there is no way I would risk my job and reputation by having some sort of romance with a student in my department. I have had my share of crushes on students, too, but did not act even when the feeling was mutual. It is unethical and unprofessional, and has all sorts of career consequences. It does not sound like this woman is paying any special attention to you to begin with, so I would drop it if I were you. You would know if she had an interest in you. You are caught in a fantasy here--one female profs are very acquainted with. And it seems like a one way street. Sorry.
