Dear Panel,

I am very different from most people. I am a musician and writer. I am funny, quiet, emotional and smart. I am 16.

My Theater Arts teacher is around 30 years old (not sure though), I don't know if he is married. I don't think so, he's kinda dorky, cynical, intelligent, and like me except in a male form and 15 years older.

He's a new teacher at my school, I started liking him since the first day of school. I don't know much about him but his personality definitely shows he was a dork in high school, He's smart and intellectual, he doesn't like kids, he doesn't watch TV, and things like that.

He seems to talk to a lot of people but he doesn't really talk to me. He acts like he doesn't like me sometimes. There are several ways. Basically I need to know though what I should do. How I can approach him in the situation we're in and how I can maybe get his attention.

How do I approach him and get his attention?

Mo, Charlie, and Mensch answer this question.
