You can't act if your uncomfortable, their job is to put you at ease and they are surprisingly adept at cold reading people.
Aside from all that he is married, so I would step off that particular train.
I've been around theater people my whole life. I know that being uncomfortable isn't good for acting... However, I've never been very touchy-feely with any teacher.. well.. ever. My teacher even says that you shouldn't do things that make you uncomfortable such as kissing scenes, sex scenes, etc. I've been acting professionally since I was about 14. Yet, I've never met someone who makes me feel as special and talented as my teacher does.

Usually, I am neutral about my teachers.

We are the ones who have to be discerning.....by that I mean if they are older & married don't let your heart get involved because it is WRONG. We have to be responsible for our own thoughts & emotions even if we feel someone may be leading us on. If the relationship is wrong.....DON'T GO THERE. You are as responsible for your behavior as he is for his.

In other words if you feel someone is leading you on who shouldn't be (a married man) then you are responsible for not allowing yourself to be led on whether they are actually doing it or not.
I agree with you eskielover
I have a gut feeling that he's just being "nice". I don't want to say that I feel like he is leading me on. I really don't feel like he is leading me on, but I do feel like maybe he... likes me. (And maybe it's not a "sexual" like) I enjoy being around him. I think maybe he enjoys being around me?
But I was also thrown off guard when he told me he loved me. I've never, ever had a teacher tell me that... even as a joke.

I feel like I could tell him if I were uncomfortable.. But I'm not uncomfortable. I love being around him! I love being his student.
