From the first day I was asked “What do you want to be when you grow up?” I knew I always wanted to be a teacher. I was young and naive then, now I’m still pretty young and pretty naive... they say 25 years old is still young even for an elementary school teacher, and unfortunately I’d have to agree with them. But what I lack in experience I make up for in excitement and making school fun. I don’t mean to toot my own horn, but I know I’m a fun teacher, I know that I’m not one of those teachers who make the kids sit for hours on end while I lecture and make them do worksheets, I try to have fun and get them to have fun too, and that extended into my interactions with parents too.

Everything started off normally for open house night, I was going into my third year of teaching and I was as excited as ever! All the kids and parents were coming in and dropping their stuff off for the first day and I got a chance to meet all the new families. The night was pretty standard, a lot of tired looking parents probably having just gotten off of work or just finished running around doing errands before school. I knew they didn’t want to be here, but getting to talk to them, getting to tell them just how much their child has already grown was amazing... it was awesome to see them get excited about hearing their child’s accomplishments already.

A few hours had passed and less and less people were coming in so I had more time to myself, which really only meant more time to scroll through Instagram and to see all of my friends doing amazing things and doing them with amazing guys and girls. I was pretty good about not thinking about all of the “no significant other” and “nobody loves you” stuff, but I’d be lying if I told you I wasn’t pretty lonely sometimes and really missed that in my life.

It was getting late in the evening and the open house was almost over, I was getting ready to pack up and leave for the night, that is until you came in. You were so... I don’t know how to describe it, I guess eye catching is the only thing I can use. After talking a little bit and hearing you tell me how you planned to be active and volunteer throughout the year I got excited. I didn’t see a ring so that only made my mind wander more.

I’d never had a crush on one of my students parents before... well this was more than a crush, I fantasized about you, about making out with you, about being in bed with you. Here I was fawning over you anytime I saw you, or at least it felt like I was. At PTO meetings I tried to sit next to you, at bake sales I tried to talk to you... I may have even scheduled a parent teacher conference unnecessarily just to talk to you more.

Not sure if you were interested in me I never made a move, for a while I was hoping you’d make the first move. But I eventually had it, the next time I saw you I plainly stated how I felt and asked you out... and to my surprise you said yes!

Hi I’m Sarah I’m 21 and this was a post I made probably 5 or so months ago and never fleshed it out, but I want to work on something and see if it’s a little bit better and a little bit more focused.

So it’s a pretty simple concept, I’d be a younger teacher about 25, and you’d be a parent, probably older, who I develop a crush on and we end up maybe hooking up or a relationship could develop naturally. I’d love to hear your ideas about this too if you have any. We can tweak it any way you’d like, I just wanted to get something out there to work off of that.

I love detail so I’m hoping we can make this at least a few paragraphs per response and I can go higher too.
