To make a long story somewhat short, I am an MSW intern (clinical social worker) who was interning at a drug treatment facility. While there, I meet a guy who is my same age and very attractive. While interning there in a professional capacity, I did not have any type of relationship with him other than strictly professional, but on my last day of interning (when all the clients knew I was leaving) he came up to me and gave me his card and told me to call him. Apparently I was not the only one feeling the attraction. Also, he was scheduled to leave a week after I left.
My question is, would it be wrong for me to call him? He has been sober for several months and HE WAS NOT MY CLIENT. I'm kind of on the fence, on one hand he seems very cool and the few conversations that we did have while he was there were nice. But on the other hand, he was a client there while I was interning (although again, he was not my client!). What do you think? Would I be crossing the ethical line?
