Hi pals
I teach Engineering Drawing in a Polytechnic in the eastern part of Nigeria. Been teaching for almost 8 years α̲̅πϑ (not to brag) I'm good at it. Teaching is my passion. I got married recently also.
My class is made up of all sorts intellects,slow-learn ers,crammers,ruffians ...both sex...Ў☺ΰ name it. Most α̲̅я̩̥̊ε̲̣� �̣̥ just harmless youngsters with raging hormones...same as most of us at that age.
Recently after one of my lectures,one of my brightest student came to my office with a problem she encountered in the home assignment. I helped her solve it after which we chatted lightly as I packed up for the day,she helped me with some books to my car. She must have slipped the handkerchief then cuz my wife found it the next morning(Ђδω she did...I don't know) α̲̅πϑ asked me who the girl(she called her name) was. I explained though I was surprised Ђδω my wife could know my students name. Then she showed me the handkerchief. It had scribbles all over it...full of professions α̲̅πϑ proclamations of L♥√ε̲̣̣̣̥.. .kids stuff(it was even perfumed). I laughed it out α̲̅πϑ assured my wife I would take care of it,at which she said I better or she would. I called the student to my office after my class α̲̅πϑ she admitted writing it but with tears in her eyes begged me not to turn her down as she has been hiding the feeling some some time α̲̅πϑ just managed to make her feelings known to me at the opportunity she got. I was moved by the intensity of her emotions as she was close to tears,α̲̅πϑ would have comforted her but for two reasons: (1)the institute frowns on any lecturer/student fraternizing α̲̅πϑ (2)i am all ready married,
I tried explaining to her that I was married α̲̅πϑ that there was absolutely nothing I could do for her in that regard but she adamantly refused....saying she doesn't mind,she just wanted me α̲̅πϑ wouldn't get me in trouble.
I L♥√ε̲̣̣̣̥ my wife α̲̅πϑ wouldn't dream(in a million years) of cheating on her(she knows this also),we've been through a lot together,I also understand this infatuation thing my student has...which I believe will die off with time. She really is a bright(one of my brightest) student with a good future in the Engineering sector. But I fear that her academic performance might be marred if she can't handle the truth. My wife wants to talk to her but.......(Whew)don&# 039;t even want to think about it.

Ђδω do I handle this??? I really can't do anything with this girl except teach my subject.
