Hi everyone!

 

First time posting in this forum as I am in need of a second opinion on this.

 

I am currently taking a summer course and I sit in the 3rd row of a fairly small university classroom.

 

The prof is a PhD student, and he's about 9-10 years older than me. I have noticed anytime we make eye contact while he's lecturing, he pauses, loses his train of thought, looks down, and then continues. The pause feels like forever, probably because of the awkwardness but may be no more than 1-2 seconds long.

 

My question for you guys is: (1) Does he pause and look down because he is intimidated by a student staring as it is only his second semester teaching, or (2) Is there something else going on?

 

Would love to hear what you guys have to say about this! :)

 

P.S. Should probably add he's married, not sure if that makes a difference in analyzing the meaning behind his behavior

He is married - why do you care?

Steer clear of attached guys.

seconded ...I have a rule of thumb when looking at a married man ....i see his wife beside him.Married men are no go zones other than appropriate conversation like how is your family how are you i hope your wife is well,couples affirming comment....your wife is a lovely lady i really like her,i normally know a little about her and ull say nothing but positives.... i say this all the time because its true with most married couples i have met............ and actually appropriate thoughts about married men, its best not to look at them thinking they are looking at you and meting out possibilities of an intimate nature ...because as far as this goes nothing is possible or should ever be possible or thought about. until they try something and then you set them straight...

 

 

 

make sure to not be in that postiion....the power of suggestion is used for a very strong reason ...to incite something to happen,and or to motivate change that is what i feel this post entails......you are skidding a fine line with the power of suggestion ...and it isnt positive.....deb
