Last year my DS absolutely adored this girl in his grade 2 class. He talked about her non-stop. He had such strong feelings for her (all innocent, of course). She was his favourite classmate.
I e-mailed the teacher to make sure my DS wasn't bothering her, and was told it was all fine, and that this girl was one of the kindest students their teacher had ever worked with. She was kind, patient, and very bright.
Sadly she ended up in a different class this year (nothing to do with my DS). He was so sad, the first day of grade three, to find out they wouldn't be classmates again.
He seems to have adjusted just fine. He no longer mentions her - I don't think he's forgotten her, but he no longer seems fixated on her. I'll never forget, though, how much she meant to him. I'm really grateful to her for being such a ray of sunshine for him in grade two.
Anyway... no advice, just common ground
