Dude, check my history. I had to delete a couple of usernames because of this.

Had a really weird path because of something very similar. Here's the real thing. You should take two months off therapy, just like that.

Otherwise your feelings will be invalidated by a bunch of people, who you already called out about bringing up transference.

What i've learned from being in a similar position: You are in a unreal relationship. Your feelings are real. If you really do click, and this is important to you, you should take the two months off (also legal requirement, but also helps to see thru some shit) , to make sure its still "you" who likes him/her.

Most other advices will just send you to talk it out. But that might be helpfull as well.
