How to deal with student crushes?

i've recently started teaching, i take drama classes at high school


im in my early 20s and my students are in their late teens. recently i noticed that one of them, who is other wise a good student, would be staring at me. i caught him doing that so many times but when he talks he argues over petty things. the other day when i told him to improve his behaviour, he just got down on his knees and said im sorry and then said (more to himself) 'looks as if im proposing to you' and another time, i was asking them about a certain character and was discussing who would look the best (girl) and he said 'you're the only pretty person around here' i just ignored that comment then.


now i am trying my best to ignore him but i feel that if i do he might become all obnoxious as he is already famous as a careless student and i only pay extra attention to him because i think he just needs attention as he is already improving. but i need to ensure that his little crush doesn't turn into something big. please tell me how to deal with it?How to deal with student crushes?
Its normal. I have teenagers and they and their friends (1 boy, 1 girl) once in awhile talk about a hot teacher. Keep a sense of humor and just ignore his behavior. If he becomes obnoxious then treat it as though he were being abnoxious w/o the crush. He needs female attention (lacking a mom?) so be firm with him. DONT let him see you as frazzeled cause he will feel successful and keep it up. How to deal with student crushes?
