Question

My physician is in his mid-forties and I am in my early thirties. After surgery a few weeks ago I caught him starring at me while I was sleeping in the hospital room. The lights were off and I thought he was just "checking on me" and did not want to disturb me so I went back to sleep. Approximately two minutes later the light comes on, he calls my name and wants to speak with me. He acted as if he had just walked in. Since then, I have noticed at my follow-up appointments that he is not accompanied with a nurse and it is just the two of us in the room. He never touches me inappropriately when examining me but he does move my hair away from my face (I have very long hair). Last time I saw him our eyes met but nothing else happened. He appeared to be frustrated afterward and sent me on my way (nicely of course). The next time I saw him we had a nurse in the room. What do you think? What was the staring for?

You read the situation well but your insucurites confuse you. Definetly an attraction, but as a doctor thats a BIG NO NO!!! So he was proubly also dealing with guild and his own conciouness afterwards. Realize doctors are in a special situation with patients, just like teachers, their suppose to be bigger on making the write choices, looks like you caught him in a moral struggle, that since you didn't bite made him rethink that it was a bad idea. Which it was for many reasons I hope he saw, and hopfully you'll understand.
