I graduated this past May..but At the beginning of the year, everything was normal between me and one of my teachers, but as the year went on, I realized that he started doing strange things, like telling other kids(as a joke), that they should not talk to me, even make eye contact with me..or one time he said in class one day, that he loved me and that I will always have a special place in his heart. He would make these little remarks like, once I saw him in the hallway and it was crowded and he came out of one of the classes and told these kids, hey you guys need get to class and clear the hallways, because there is a beautiful girl in the hallway. He saw me before graduation, he told me I looked beautiful, and said that this year has been a year he won't forget, because he feels that he has become a better person, teacher, everything because I opened his eyes to giving people an opportunity to succeed.The year was full of moments like that. Now, I am starting to question how I feel about him, It's like he slowly seduced me all year? I just don't know if these 'feelings' between us are real?

I am gonna be 19 and he is gonna be 25. I have talked to some friends and some family.. and most just tell me I just took what he said wrong, and I should forget it..but everytime I get convinced, yeah..it probobly didn't mean anything..or he didnt mean what he said like that, something else happens..and it makes me think otherwise.

As for me, in all honesty, I do like him, as we did spend a lot of time together last year, but I just can imagine what other people would say, and Its sort of like, my heart tells me one thing, but the reality of the way people think makes me feel like I have to think otherwise. I don't want either of us to get a bad reputation, and I know that people could think things happened before Graduation. I mean, he told me at the end of the year, that he did like me, and hoped that any guy that dates me, realizes how lucky he really is. I really dont know if these feelings are 'real' or if my mind is just playing tricks on me.

I caught up with my teacher recently.. and it was at school and when he saw me, he told me, 'hey..before you leave, you have to check out my office..you haven't been up there yet.' So, He went to class and I went up to see what he was talking about, and he had this pic. of us that I gave him at the end of the year, framed. The picture kinda shocked me...I was like...huh? I mean, I gave any teacher that I had taken a photo with at the end of the year, a copy of the pic. and some of them tacked it on the wall, or just have it like leaning on something in their office, or some just took it home, but I was surprised that he framed it...I was like..wow..really was not expecting that. Should I just take that as a compliment, that he doesn't want the pic getting messed up, or take that as something...weird??? Its like the only two things he has up too..like he doesnt have any other things up in his office yet. Part of me says, wow, thats nice of him, and then the other part is like...alittle strange???

What do you guys think?!?

Alright guys..well its been awhile and sadly..things are pretty much still the same as they were before. Although...I really need an opinion on something that happen just this week.

I recently saw him after classes and we were just talking and then I had him help me with Math..I told, Ohh man, I have a test this week, can you help me out. So he did..we went to the library on campus and then after we were done ..we were leaving and I was assuming we were just gonna go our seperate ways..but he kept talking to me and then he was like ohh man I forgot my keys..and we were like.. just heading around the corner from where the table was that we were sitting ( meaning, we were not that far from the keys...lol) and I turned towards him and said..ohh well you should go back for them and he was like...well are you coming?? Like he was just going around the corner..I didnt think he needed me to go with him. So... I was said...Umm..do you want me to--- and then he was like...hold on, and he ran to the table got his keys and ran back.

Anyway, long story short, we were walking out and a girl in one of my classes stopped me and as we were talking...he was like alight well, I guess I will see you ladies later...and he left. Now part of me feels like...Should I have just blew off my friend and ran and caught up with him, rather then talk to her? We were only talking for like 2 min. and he was so quick to leave me there with her, it was not like he was acting like he wanted me to stick around. Although I really think he did.. And my friend was heading to class..so it was not like we could go hang out or anything.

So, really...I am feeling like...was it my fault this time...should I have just kept walking with him and not have stopped to say hello. Maybe something between us finally would have been put out there. Its like I said...everytime we are alone and finally it seems like we can just talk things out ( our feelings), something messes it up. EVERY TIME! ...He was walking with me and we were just walking and talking together, and it was so almost random...I was thinking to myself...so do I go...or do you want me to stay..what do you want? I am not a mind reader. What do you guys think?? Am I just making more out of this then what it really is, or do you think he might have finally made a move...and I just blew it this time?? =/
