[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. We went on 1 "date" that was never labelled as such. I've had coffee with students before and it's usually a mutual ego boost thing. No one makes a move, we just both enjoy the tension/idea. Nothing has ever happened. In this case, after the meet up happened, the former student started sending photos that were not asked for (not nudes, but suggestive) and I played along with some suggestive/humoring responses. Student is never again going to be a student of mine and I will be teaching at a totally diff school in another state. Just mortified at my lack of judgement. Big age diff 14 years. And never in a million years thought student would really think this could be a "thing" given student knows I'm moving far away.[/quote]OP, have you ever heard of boundaries? I'm glad you're coming to your senses now but, FFS, you are responsible for giving mixed messages to a younger, very impressionable person, regardless of whether she is currently your student at the same university!  So damn tired of professors who don't want to honestly acknowledge the power differential with younger people in this day and age.  I know you feel bad about this already but [i]WTF were you thinking when it happened[/i]??!!![/quote]
