Is it normal that i love my teacher like a second mother.

I love my teacher like a second mother. She is so nice and just the best. The only thing is that I am too much of a coward to say that to her. I am finishing school soon and I want to tell her how I feel but I don't know how. I have been keeping it in for all this time but I just want to tell her.

    In elementary school, I used to accidentally call my teacher "mom". It's normal. If your too scared to tell her face to face, you should write her a letter or something and leave it on her desk signed with your name. She'll be touched.

    Good luck. :)

    I know exactly how you feel. I'm way to scared to tell my teacher too. I try to spend as much time with her as I can though. I'm kind of transparent with my friends though and they don't understand so I think she might get part of it. I'm deciding on whether or not I should send her a letter in the mail at the end of the school year but I'm really embarrassed. So I really do know how you feel.

      That is pretty much my story. My friends and I used to hang out with this teacher but then they stopped. Someone else took my friends away from me and I had only a few good friends. I spent as much time as I could with her and she understood me better than even my family. She could always make me laugh and cheer me up when I felt sad. We would tell each other important things. At the end of the school year I wrote a card, two pages of anything that I could think of saying to her I wrote everything except for the second mother bit in the card. I gave it to her last year and she cried after she read it and said that she would miss me a lot. Yesterday I went to see her after six months and she was so happy to see me. She gave me such a big hug and I wish I could have the courage to tell her how I feel but I feel like it would be to soon to say how I feel about her. I definitely think that you should mail her a letter or better yet, give it to her in person. Don't be embarrassed about what your friends will think. Giving the card in person is so much more rewarding though because you can see her expression when she reads it. I will never forget her and we email every week. Just saying I am in year 7 now and I don't know how long to wait before I tell her how I feel. Tell me how it goes with the card.

    I've felt that way towards a teacher I had in middle school. Unfortunately, she stopped calling and visiting.

    If you feel that way, it wouldn't hurt to tell her. Just be prepared to have disappointment if she doesn't feel that way towards you.
