I am a graduate student teaching an undergraduate college course, and most of my students are, literally, very close to my age. For this reason, I have been taking extra precautions to maintain the utmost professionalism so as to enforce the student/teacher divide. Nonetheless, there is one student (three years younger than me) who has been rather flirtatious with me for much of the semester, and I think he likely has a crush on me (i.e. always shows up early, makes these little comments, puts tons of extra effort into all of his assignments, gives me lots of smiles...etc). Recently, I ran into this student outside of class time--at a Halloween street party when we were both dressed up--and it was very strange...like if we would have just met I probably would have considered dating the guy, but due to the circumstances I could not even think about it. Problem is, I think I am beginning to feel a little attracted to him as well...and I'm not sure what to do about it. Any advice?
