I don't know, I'm muddling myself the more I think of this!

Right, the boundary wasn't threatened at all. But I could just see it so clearly and understand why dual relationships, it possible, ought to be avoided. And if they can't be then they need to be handled carefully on everyone's part to avoid spill over of the therapeutic relationship as much as possible.
