I am the tough cookie who could care less about what people say right? I'm not a teacher's pet. i just carry on conversations with my teachers because i respect some of them and like them (not in a gross way) I don't like to be rude and talk while they are talking etc. For some reason even if its the beginning of the year and they dont know me, they choose me to talk to. They show up at random times and talk to me about their personal lives, and ask questions about my personal life, my likes and dislikes etc. They tease me, i tease back, we have a friendly relationship going on. I feel comfortable around them it makes it easier to ask questions and learn better (or so i think). So there was this one specific teacher that would stare at my chest everytime i walked into their class. (i always had funky tshirts on with weird sayings) or even wheni wore lowcuts. Someone decided to make mean comments in class about me and the teacher and it made me feel really bad. Why do they do that?

  2. If you don't want them staring at your chest, don't draw attention to your chest; wear a regular shirt without sayings.

    People say mean things for all kinds of reasons, usually to make themselves feel "higher" or "better" by putting someone else down.  Maybe they think it's a little weird that you're spending so much time with teachers instead of them, and they're jealous?  As long as you're not doing anything wrong with those teachers, and you're always in the company of other people (like in the classroom or hallway), not just the teacher alone, there should be no problem simply because you can relate to people of all ages.  (I think it might be a little weird that they're coming to you to talk about their personal life, though.)  If you've done nothing wrong, and the teacher's done nothing wrong, then just ignore those who imply that something is wrong.

    Never, never meet with a teacher alone, even in the classroom with the door closed.

    Never, never meet with a teacher after school alone.

    If the teacher seeks you out for the specific purpose of talking about their or your personal life, steer the conversation away to more neutral topics, like the pep rally or the science fair.

    Edge yourself away from the "too close" teacher.  You don't have to say a word about it, just inch away.  He'll get the message.  If he doesn't, just say something like, "excuse me, personal space?" If he still gets too close, see him after class (with the door open) and tell him that you're uncomfortable when he's too close and invading your personal space, and the other kids are noticing and saying things.  Most teachers would rather not hear that "students are saying things".
