i met this prof last year, and I am one of his most impressing students and i visits his office frequently ( for academic purpose). Now the course is over, and he knows that i am attracted to him.we have been changing few emails, and he is a great young man, definitely a scientist. He is 32 years old, single and i am 21. Few days ago i decided to make a movement, and i emailed him to ask him out for lunch, and he replied saying that I am a lovely young woman and he enjoys talking with me when i visit his office, but for several reasons he needs for our relationship to remain professional... I understand and i respect his professional attitude, coz i still take course in his faculty. so could be like me?

One thing i can say is that he showed interest. I would say maybe he's alittle touchy about this situation. Or could be that he may even feel uncomfortable with his attraction to you and he's nervous because he doesn't know how to act. I say to just wait it out. there's nothing bad about this, just give it time. time will tell you. wait and see if he emails u one day and says ok let's get together.

he has a lot to lose by getting involved with a student so I can see his point of view. And you might consider his position too. If the feelings last, somehow things will work out and you'll be together to date and get better aquainted...give it time and space for now and keep it plutonic.

Let just say he is playing his card right cause of all the media about coach's, professors, priests, he doesn't want to be one of those causalities, with his picture all over the papers, and TVs. just respect his wishes and remain a student good luck

He said no to save his job. He would get fired if he dated you.
The age difference is huge. Especially considering he is a professor. You two are in different worlds.
The other possibility is your English is about fourth grade level. You may be embarrassing him.
Either way, take some English classes.

He needs to keep things professional. He could be disciplined or lose his job if he gets involved with a student.

I'm not sure what your asking. but if he is a good teacher, and is teaching a class you need, go for it. you flattered him by asking him about, and you know he wanted to, he just couldn't. Seeing him everyday might make him realize what he is missing out on. I don't think you should give up, or stop seeing him for classes. being a tease might help too, drive him a little crazy.

He wants to keep his job and he may lose it if word got out about a relationship with a past student.
I agree with him 100%

He might like you it is very hard to tell. I think that he is just a little catious. You are one of his students and he doesn't need tell get into trouble. But like i said it is hard to tell.
