    Crushes are pretty much always fine. As long as you’re both of consenting age, then there is no problem with acting on it either. Do be careful, though. Some people will take advantage of younger mates due to their naïveté

    If he's your tutor it's like a patient falling in love with their doctor or nurse in a hospital. Sort of normal but I would not act on it. It sounds like it would make great masturbation material though. :)

    • do you think it would be possible for him to feel the same way back? we talk about things that aren’t learning too

        I'm concerned with the age difference. 11 years difference. What is your end game? Do you want to have a fling with this guy or more like a permanent hookup?

        If you're serious you could steer the off topic conversation to relationships. There is a possibility he is already in one. You could flat out ask him what he thinks of you once you have established he's available.

        Oh yeah. Make sure you are protected, pill, condom, whatever. :)

        Does that help?

        • the difference is 9 years, he has told me he is not in a relationship but Im too shy to ask him what he thinks of me. I don’t even know what i want out of this

            My bad. 9 years. When it comes to matters of lust or love it's time to step up the plate and leave your shyness in the locker room. It's only one little question. Go for it!

            Let me know what happens.

    Surely there will be career repercussions for him if he gets involved with a student?
