Reply To: “Can I Ask My Massage Client What He Feels For Me?”

I think it’s unprofessional and inappropriate to do something like that.

It’s also rude to put someone on the spot who came to you for a paid wellness treatment on the spot like that and ask him how he feels about you.

The only ethical way to go about this, imo, is to tell him you’ve developed feelings for him so you don’t think it’s a good idea to be his massage therapist going forward and refer him to someone else, but he knows where to reach you if he’d like to get together sometime. Probably text is a good way to communicate this.
