oops, here's the link: https://www.newyorker.com/video/watch/sparring-partner[/quote]

That was really good, thanks for sharing.[/quote]

I think this is about right. But sailing very close to the wind. Crossing the line can be easy in certain situation though. 
I liked it too. Wish they were both married, though.[/quote]

Why what would be different ?[/quote]

Because of the power dynamics, he has a wife, and she's single; she wants to change the status quo more than he does. [/quote]

both married; same outcome[/quote]

Not necessarily, this is very similar to the friendship I have with my coworker. We are both married and neither looking to leave our family so we easily enjoy our time together.[/quote]

Right. In the movie she wants him to leave and be with her. When both EA partners are married, they rarely want such development. [/quote]

I think in OP’s case, don’t think plan of leaving family. Just that both hit it well but very mindful however risk of crossing the line is relatively high. One does not want unintended consequences. I will think need to reduce text late at night. Holding hands should be avoided. One can enjoy each other conmpany without going physical, though it can be hard to maintain control [/quote][/quote]
