A teacher-student relationship is the most sensitive bond. At times, students get extremely attached to their teachers. Usually, they are the kids who come from a disturbed family background or who don't get the required attention from their parents. They try to get that secured feeling from their teachers. And, of course many teachers are warm enough to show that care and comfort level. But, such relations at times leads to infatuation. We usually see such instances in high school or Pre-University colleges, where youngsters get attracted to teacher's intellectualism, maturity, caring words or at times just good looks Teachers with such qualities are compared with boys/girls of their age and they find the teacher more attractive. As I said, it's just infatuation, which doesn't last long, there are very few instances, where this is taken to a extreme level.


There is another unique kind of relationship, which we hardly see these days. The typical "Chandragupta-Chanakya" kind, which is influenced by the concept of "Guru Parampara" in ancient India. At present this concept is slightly changed, which is described below -
We all come across many teachers in the education phase of our life. But, there will be 1 or 2 teachers in those 15-17 years, for whom we have great respect and are extremely fond of them.They become our mentors for life, whom we whole heartily consider as a "Guru". I personally believe that to be successful we need on "Chanakya" in our life. "At present, the world has become so narrow-minded that they even doubt, mock and tease the relationship between Chanakya and Chandragupta". Don't give a damn about it! If you feel he/she is the one, listen to them, those people who tease you or find you boring(as you always listen to the teacher) will stay where they are, whereas you keep reaching new heights in life. It's stupidity to say that we can succeed without help of any guru. Your bond with the teacher may lead to many emotions, just learn how to handle them. "Remember you need a 'king maker' to become a 'king' or may be even vice-verse."
