*Face Palm*

It is very dangerous to be single in a high school environment. Not so much because students try to hit on you. That's actually pretty easy to shut down. No, it's because students try to help you.

We've had a bit of a stressful week because we are being audited. But the stress definitely lightened when the hot auditor walked in. My coworker was immediately at my chair, elbowing me in the back and making comments about how cute he was and wondering suggestively if he had a ring on his finger.

*Face palm*

The next thing I knew a student asked me what I though about him. I was stunned into stammering, and she took that to mean I was interested. Before I knew it, she was mapping out a scheme for how to get him to notice me as he walked past my desk. A scheme which he partially overheard as he walked behind her.

Hoping that the humiliation was over, I went to lunch. I returned to find my coworkers snickering around my desk. Apparently a group of students had gotten together and asked the hot auditor if he was married and would he be interested in going out with someone at the school.

*Face palm*

Next thing I know, a coworker is laughing with him, explaining that he shouldn't be surprised that the students are trying to set him up with a single teacher.

I spent the rest of my day trying not to look at him whenever he walked past my desk. Sometimes we made eye contact and it was awkward.
