Don't be sorry, it was awesome. She taught me a lot and it was fun. It doesn't have to be a predatory relationship.

But it was. If you couldn't form good relationships before 17, there was an issue already. Then for it to be with a 36 year old definitely means there were other issues as well with you and her.

Hopefully, you did grow somewhat but seems that it has affected your acceptance of inappropriate relations between minors and grown adults.

I had a positive experience, it goes to reason others could have a positive experience as well.

I was advanced for my age, she was immature for hers. You don't get to pick who you fall for.

Telling kids that they are "advanced for their age" is a grooming tactic.

I'm sure it is, but sometimes kids are just advanced for their age. I was a little wunderkind. The teachers liked to flirt, but they never did anything inappropriate. I wasn't in a relationship with a teacher, it was after I had graduated with a co-worker.
