Mainly, i am depressed that the student teacher for my spanish class has left, and has not emailed me at all. I have feelings for her. I honestly dont care if i couldnt ever have [email protected] with her, but baiscally loved her. Idk what to do. I am also depressed because a friend of mine has recantly lost his dad to drugs, and i was talking to him via xbox live when his mom told him that his dad was dead. He is somewhat depressed, but i feel bad for him, when he did nothing wrong.

I really hate to say this, but your feelings for you student teacher really cannot be acted upon, it's not right for her and it's not right for you either. I'm really sorry that you feel this way about her, I know how it feels to want somebody you can't exactly have. I've been there in the past, not with a student teacher, but I know the feeling of wanting somebody and not being able to get them, and it's not pretty. Just think of your other possibilities, you're young and have a lot ahead of you, try not get caught up falling over her.

We all have these sort of crushes on people, often enough its people that we don't have a chance with. It will pass. That's the only helpful advice I can give. Especially in this situation with the age difference, its not exactly acceptable.

It's harmless for you to have feelings for her as long as you don't act upon them. I know its easier said than done, and I may not understand exactly how much you care for her, but believe me there is nothing you can do other than move on from her. And the sooner you do the better off you'll be. I fell in love with a close friend for over a year and got rejected, it took me almost a year to get over that rejection (I was majorly depressed during the recovery period). Looking back I realize now how silly it was for me to let it consume me for that long. Trust me, when you get over her you will feel much better.

As for your friend. It sucks, its definitely not easy. Especially when his dad died over something like drugs. Be supportive and strong for your friend. It's sad to see your friend go through this, but if he needs to turn to a friend to talk to or vent at you should try to be there for him. You don't even have to say anything if you don't feel like it will help, just listen and let him do the talking.

Hope this helps and feel better!
