I still have feelings for this girl, and she's taking a class I'm going to teach.?

ok so, I'm 24 and I teach english at this college in south america..I happened to meet this girl through a friend, and she happens to study at the same college.
We dated, but things didn't work out since she still had feelings for an ex.
We stopped talking, for some time, until one day we went out...that night I tried to kiss her in the cab, leaving her home but she refused...another time during a holiday I was at the beach and she was too, she told me to hang out, and later she sort of hung up on me....I decided that was messed up and decided to forget her completely.
She didn't call or txted either, I knew she felt she had an advantage, and then after a week she calls me sat night 5 times up to 2am..after two weeks I sort of started just saying hi.
Now the problem!
She registered to take my class next semester along with her two friends....I still have feelings for this girl, and I definitely know I'm going to feel uncomfortable....what's the worst it could happen? thanks

you could lose your tenure.. well but you don't have tenure yet..
you could get fired...

the worst that could happen would be she could fall totally completly in love with you and you two could get married and live happily ever after...but that would be good right???

seriously I think you should just not worry about it and teach the class as you normally would, theres really nothing else you could do, unless you quit your job and I would not reccommend that, so just teach your class, and treat her like all the other students. She may be your soul mate, so be nice to her.

OMG !! its the first time that i see a teacher feeling for his student , !!!

anyways , for your question , i think you should wait till she comes after you , try to ignore her a bit , this way she might try to get you and when she does that , she will appreciate having you more , well that's my opinion anyways .
