We had a big falling out a few months ago but it has been resolved. Our relationship has since improved and he has a new level of respect for me.
My problem is that I am extremely awkward around any males that I view as superior to me i.e. more intelligent than me or better looking than me. I am seriously attracted to authority figures and I can blur the lines between earning their respect on an academic level and genuine attraction. I hate feeling like this as it is seriously dangerous. I don't think it is healthy to be attracted to lecturers in the way I am and as a result I don't think I am open to guys my own age. Please help! The other night a group of students and professors went out for drinks and I had one to many and basically cornered one of my superiors for a conversation. He wasn't even remotely drunk and although I don't think I truly flirted I am worried that I came across as a super fan girl. I am really embarrassed to see him again. Any advice?
