Falling in love or attraction is a natural and common event that one can not deny. A smart/sexy teacher is a secret crush of many students. As human beings, we like those who guide and care for us. Teachers have a huge opportunity to guide and care for so many emotional students who can not hold them to falling in love.
It is very taboo/forbidden because our society sees teachers as parents, and their affair harms academic results and professions. Although there are many complex and tough rules, there are many student-teacher affairs/relationships that we can not neglect or eliminate many student-teacher affairs/relationships. Do you fall in love with your teacher or your student? Most of us have these secret feelings in our lifetime. If you like to read student-teacher romance, you are on the right track.
