    My first crush since Coming out to myself/finally admitting I'm gay, that is.

    SO, I've been taking this acting class in Toronto the last two weekends and I've developed this very, very intense crush on my instructor. I don't know for sure if she's gay But I have a feeling she might be. . Basically, tomorrow is my last class and I don't know what to do! I've tried to make casual conversation with her during breaks but I've either chickened out or been interrupted by another student. I even went to see her comedy show last weekend and only managed to say a quick hi before and after. (I'm starting to sound like a stalker....)

    What should I do? We do have a mutual friend so I thought I could bring that up but it just makes me sad that tomorrow is the last class and I probably missed my shot. If I ever even had one. This is just the first time that I'm recognizing that it really is a crush and not just me "really wanting to be friends" with someone I meet.

    I'll probably see her around since I plan on continuing with the courses in the same acting school, I just know she won't be teaching the next course.

    I'm even dreaming about her! It's a little painful, to be honest.

    What should I do!? Give up?? Any sort of advice would be appreciated. :icon_redf
