Hi dp,

You remind me of how I was around your age. I had a crush on my art teacher, called 'Miss Joy' which I thought was an apt name for her. She gave me a lot of joy!

From your post I would say that you are a healthy young guy, and romantic too. Unless this is really upsetting you, I would say that having crushes on female teachers is quite normal.

Near the end of his life, one of my uncles was in hospital and he was getting crushes on the young nurses who looked after him. I think his romantic nature helped him through some difficult times.

Yes, your post has really cheered me up!

Good thoughts, M
