I have a boyfriend, but he&#8217;s a bit too immature for me sometimes. There is this young male teacher who works at my school who is always watching me. He is only a few years older than I am. At first I just ignored it as nothing; although I was curious and felt special as well that he liked me out of all the other girls at school, then recently he told a friend of mine who he knows to &#8216;hook us up.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>What should I do Bella? Suddenly my boyfriend doesn&#8217;t seem important as I know this teacher is such an upgrade. He has the body of a man, is smart and funny. I don&#8217;t know if I can turn down such an opportunity. Age is just a number right?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dear school girl,<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>While it might seem like this love interest is just a few years old, he is still your teacher. So my best advice to you is: DO NOT GO DOWN THAT ROUTE. You realize too that you may not be the only female student this teacher has an eye for, and you will be putting your reputation on the line if you hook up with him.<\/p>\n<p>First of all do you know how many male teachers who have lost their jobs over female students? Stay far away from this teacher and if your current boyfriend is too immature and you don\u2019t feel anything strongly for him then sack him. But don\u2019t play cat and mouse with this teacher, because that\u2019s what it will seem like; you are going to be hiding to meet each other, sneaking out from your home at nights and you won\u2019t be able to enjoy your time together in the open. Your teacher knows it\u2019s wrong and risky to date a student. Be the wise one and avoid him.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bella.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Have a problem?
