I had a lovely "relationship" with one of my docs for over a year. We really enjoyed each others company; and he told as much. He had me call him by his first name. Mostly we engaged in repartee and laughed. Nothing unprofesstional ever happened but it was very confusing for me and eventually I sent him a goodby letter. I felt if there was ever any hope of something more it had to be outside of our professional relationship. If he would be unethical with me, how could I ever trust him? The short answer to your dilemma is to be happy this is working so well and realize it can't be anything else under the circumstances. Sorry.
