| In 6 months he/ they are moving back to his homeland and likely won't need a full time nanny. |

| Is it bad that I want to hear all the details of how this romance started and how it will end? |

Then you’re saving yourself some heartbreak. Keep it professional and enjoy giving him a goodbye kiss in 6 months. |

That’s silly. 6 months is not enough for kids to grow up. I say go for it! |

Sorry. I didn't mean the kids will be grown up. They are moving back to be with his family and their grandmother will be taking over my current role like she did before I came aboard. |

Who's going to take care of the kids 6 months from now when they're moving back to his homeland? The next care giver could be a wicked stepmother.
Go for it. Be their fairly (god)mother  .
It's a win-win. |

This is romance novel level trope. |

| OP, would you ever consider living permanently wherever is it he's from? Be very honest with yourself re: this. Permanently live there without more than a 1x/year visit back to the US. Would you? If you would be ok with living there, pursue the relationship --- let him know, without a doubt, that it is a relationship-leading-to-marriage that you want. |

There's no romance so no begining or end. I've been a nanny on and off for about a decade. I was interested in being a nanny last summer and the agency I work with thought I'd be a good fit. I interviewed and was hired. Most of my day is filled with kids and household management things. When he travels I'm with the kids 24/7 . I occasionally travel with them or do day trips with the whole family. We talk mostly job related occasionally other things come up. I don't linger at the end of the day. We have had dinner all together a handful of times on the kids birthdays or if he happens to get home early and asks me to join them. No flirting or anything like that. |

We haven't been flirting. At least I haven't meant to be. We're friendly . I Yes he's attractive, a nice guy, and a good dad .Yes I probably have a small crush at In a different situation I'd consider dating him. I honestly feel that other than kissing things have been professional and never crossed the line. I haven't tried to do anything to catch his eye. The kiss sort of just happened. |

It was one of the nights I work a bit later. He came back a little earlier than usual. The kids begged me to stay for the end of the movie. I agreed, they fell asleep. I made my way to leave. He saw me to the door. He made fun of my hat. Then he thanked me for hosting some of his family the week before and we kissed. It really just sort of happened. As it was happening it didn't seem wrong at all. I know that doesn't make any sense. I'm pretty sure I said thank you and then I left. The next time I saw him he apologized. |
