goodheart36 Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 Sorry this is a bit long..I asked my former professor out for coffee. The reason I did this was because we ended up having a really great conversation after class one day..I love making a connection with someone one on one..There was some heavy laughing, eye contact, personal talk, etc. He even told me places he hangs out at, where he lives (not address, but cross st.) etc..shops, etc..He told me twice that it was nice talking to me and struck up another convo for a bit after another class..It wasn't school stuff but stuff we talked about in our first convo....We do have the same special interests which is cool..I kinda felt a little something there, actually during the whole semester there have been moments like him looking at me and looking away......He is shy (told the class this), super nice and kinda quirky.. He is no longer my prof and never will be again..I won't even have anymore classes in his dept. or on the same campus..We are also around the same age. I mentioned that we should keep in touch and he was all for it. We are now Facebook friends..I don't think he goes on there a lot though..So, I went ahead and asked him if he would like to meet up for a coffee one day..I kept my message light and nothing strong or anything..I kept it casual.. Deep down, I feel good about my move because of the way we got along so well and thinking why would he say no..But then there's the part of me that fears rejection and he is weirded out or something...I just think, why would he feel strange about it? Worse thing that happens is he turns me down politely or just never gets back to me..I can't really see him doing that, but you never know..I won't feel embarrassed because I won't have anymore classes with him and there won't be any awkwardness..I didn't profess my love for him or anything crazy, just mentioned us going for coffee.. He is single and not married... Do you think he will get back to me? I know there is no way anyone could know that but I would feel awful if he just didn't at least return a message..I just need some encouragement or something.. I am on the shy side myself, so it took a lot for me to ask him..I only messaged him today..
ja123 Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 If he's single, I think he'll get back to you. Let us know how it goes. Good luck. 2
lamaga Posted May 11, 2013 Posted May 11, 2013 Oh, how I love and hate to date my former professors.. Haha. Well, funnily enough it happened twice for me. but be careful... once the guy I liked was married and didn't tell me until I had already started to develop feelings... and you can imagine how that one ended... Hope he is single and likes you too! Good Luck! 1
