i want my TA, plain and simple. thing is, do you think its a good idea to ask him out now? he won’t be teaching us next semester so that student-teacher relationship is over. we talked a few times, he knows my name but no signals about whether he’s into me or not. if a good, professional TA was into his student, we he give hints as to whether he’s attracted to you or would he keep it to himself? I had my last class with him today so i won’t see him again and i’m sure he won’t be teaching me in the future. If i should ask him out, does e-mail sound ok? thanks
well, at least you can be sure that he can afford to pay for the dinner.
if i were a TA who was serious about my position, i wouldn’t do anything that could compromise it while i was in that position of authority. of course, now the class is done and that bond doesn’t exist anymore.
you should wait until next semester though. he will still have to help in the marking of exams, and i’m sure you would be making him feel awkward or compromised if he wanted to accept, but clearly couldn’t. best to wait until the coast is completely clear.
either way, best o’ luck. i cheerin’ for yah!
cheers,
