Is it normal that i look up to my coach as a parent?

Okay, well my coach is my teacher and soccer coach. And she has been there for me almost all the time. I really look up to her in a way, that a kid looks up to a parent or authority figure. She is a role model. I used to be really shy and not have anything to talk about since I was so nervous to speak to her. I always tried my hardest at practice to impress her and make her proud. And every compliment she gave me, made my day. I always try to find the right thing to say to her but sometimes it's just so hard. But when I am quiet she always calls me beans and rubs my head. And I feel so special. Is this normal that I look up to her like this?

    I was pretty similar to you when I was in high school.

    Actually, it's pretty sad, especially because you think she thinks you are special.
    How many children do you think this woman has to deal with each year? And how many probably get a crush on her, also thinking they are special, just because she is nice to them? It's her JOB to be nice to you kids.
    Go home and get your attention from the people who honestly think you are special, whether they show it or not.

    You don't get enough attention from your parents and family at home so it is normal that you have these feelings for somebody who pays some attention to you.
    Also, Barack Obama's wife looks like a tranny.
