Is it normal for me to care for my teacher ?

IIN: That I wish my teacher was one of my close family members?? Okay , well my teacher is an older lady and I love her so much. And she loves me too because she told me so . Is that normal ? I feel that me and her have a connection , like one of those student/teacher friendships. I can tell her anything. When I'M around her i feel so loved and cared for. When people make her mad , Im mad as well. I think she knows that this happens. When she teaches me I'm always willing to learn the lesson. I feel that if she is such a great teacher , i should be a great student. Everyday I go to her classroom to check on her and to make sure everything is okay. She lets me know if something is bothering her. I think we actually feel each others feelings towards each other bc when I want to give her a hug she reach her arms out first and hug me and when i think to tell her that i love her she beats me at it. I love my teacher as a second mom , i just wish i knew how she loves me. Like a student or someone apart of her family. Let me make this clear , there is nothing inappropriate going on between me and my teacher . People say we just happen to connect as people. Is it normal for me to care like that ???

    I had this teacher in grade 4 and on the first day in her class we had this connection instantly. We would always joke around and we could tell each other anything. On the last day of school (grade 6)I was crying so much when I had to say 'bye' to her to go to high school. I gave her a hug then started walking away. But she called for me to come back and her arms were outstretched for me! I ran back and gave her a huge hug. It has been over half a year since that time and two days since I last saw her. She was so excited to se me and as soon as she saw me she wrapped me in a hug. We e-mail every week and she will always be my favorite teacher. I think that it is beautiful to have a connection like that with your teacher. I know that for me when I talk to her it is like I forget about the stress of the day or anything bad that has happened. Hold onto that special relationship with your teacher. Hope that you still keep in touch even after you graduate:)

      That was 3 years ago. After I graduated we barely talked and we still don't, but it's okay i know she has a life and her own family.

    A mom tried to cheer her son up recently by telling him that as his exams were almost over he wouldn't have to see me again to do extra study.

    The boy burst into tears!
    But then again, he is only 10 yo!

    Yeah, that is normal. Some teachers can be pretty awesome.

    I have trained myself to not get attached anymore though...

      Why?

        Because you eventually have to move on. It's just part of the system and while you can have a great bond with a teacher, the relationship does come to an end.
