HELP! Male teacher crushing on student, reactions?

Question

f a young male teacher is "crushing" on a 17 y/old female student, how would you expect his male colleagues (two close friends) to react?

Would they discourage the relationship or tease him? Why would they tease him/dangle her in front of him?

Answer 1

like wtf why condone such activity...she is a minor...and why would you "dangle" her in front of him...ummmm wreckless endangerment...it doesnt make sense...where do you guys teach...what kind of school do teachers do things like this...i would be the first 1 to bust hist nuts about this!!!!

Edit: you must know better if you're writing this..so what is the discussion? you know its wrong and so does he

Edit: you did put this on here for our opinion and judgements....

Answer 2

You should report the male teacher, he shouldn't be teaching in the first place. He should be behind bars.

Answer 3

is he a perv?

Answer 4

Whoa! Whoa! Whoa, yo! This is a HUGE mistake. This kind of thing happens way too often these days. This can only lead to heartbreak and embarrassment. Hopefully this guy's colleagues are talkin' him out of it, but if they are supporting it... not good. It can only end badly. Let's hope all ends well. It won't be easy, but dropping this 'crush' is the only positive reaction. Best of luck to all of y'all.

Answer 5

report it

its not going anywhere

Answer 6

Teacher-student relationships are always wrong.  The teacher will get fired if he pursues this or if any of the higher-ups find out.  I would hope his colleagues would discourage any kind of relationship.  If his colleagues are encouraging him, they should all be called before the school board.  

Answer 7

They're friends- there's your answer.  Guys seem to enjoy torturing their buddies a bit, and it's harmless if Professor Crush isn't getting inappropriate.  

And just a random bit of info- my high school English teacher married a former student, after she had graduated, of course.

Answer 8

I think I understand what you're asking, but I have no idea why they would tease him about about you...  It seems that they would be discouraging it.  Maybe it's because you're seventeen and won't be a minor for much longer, so you're approaching the "safe" zone.  If you were fourteen or something like that, they wouldn't be condoning his crush, I bet.

Answer 9

I'd advise him to forget about the girl ASAP- that is no good at all!
