A year has passed since I have wanted to do this. My relationship with this particular professor (target) has gone from good to bad, from bad to worse, and from worse to not-so-bad. So it really doesn't matter much (socially) if we don't ever speak again. We also won't be taking anymore classes together.
A few details about the situation:
My target professor is female, and considerably older than me.
She does not know about my feelings, but I'm pretty sure she is slightly aware that they exist.

The point of this topic is to get or find that little "push" of self-confidence on the matter.
REMEMBER: I really want to this, even if it is just to have the experience.
