“I Am Becoming Useless Because of You” – Student Wrote to His Teacher
A heartfelt love letter written by a male student to his secondary school teacher has caused a stir after she shared it on social media.
In the letter, the young boy professed his deep affection for his teacher and earnestly pleaded for her love in return.
He implored her to overlook their age difference and instead, help him become a better person, as his feelings for her had left him feeling ‘useless.’
In his own words:
“I understand this might sound strange, but every word I write comes from my heart. From the very first moment I saw you at school, it was as if my brain stopped working. Every time our eyes meet, it feels like smoke is rising from within me. Your beauty has a profound impact on me. Although I am still in secondary school, I have big dreams of becoming a successful man.
I know some may see me as just a young boy, but when love takes hold, age becomes inconsequential. My thoughts are consumed by you, and it’s making me feel lost and ‘useless.’ Whenever I close my eyes, your image is all I can see. Please, kindly consider my request and help me find purpose.”
The teacher reposted the letter, originally written by the student, on social media, which quickly garnered attention and sparked various reactions.
@dennis__ expressed surprise, stating, “The children of today never cease to amaze.”
@chairwoman66 suggested that the letter be shared with the student’s parents, so they are aware of the emotions their son is experiencing.
@adamma remarked, “This young boy should focus on improving his grammar and studies at this stage.”
Social media users shared differing opinions on the emotions displayed in the letter, with some expressing concern about the boy’s feelings, while others emphasized the importance of his education and growth during his school years.
