Today, I met the man of my dreams. Insane click. He’s just as in love with me. He’s also got a condition I research in my job. It’s literally unethical for us to date. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I realized that I'm head over heels in love with my coworker. She's funny, caring, sweet, and the best person I've ever met. We're also both married. I dream about her every night, and the stress of not being able to tell her has overtaken my PTSD, making it impossible to sleep and barely function. Fuck Love. FML
Today, I found out that the man I've wanted to be with for the last year and a half also wants to be with me. Two weeks ago, I got a promotion! I'm also legally no longer allowed to date him. FML
Today, I had a date with a man who works as a psychiatrist. He diagnosed me with borderline personality disorder during dinner. FML
Today, I asked out the man of my dreams. He's smart, attractive, and has a steady job. Imagine my surprise when he accepted. Then imagine my surprise when he followed up with, "Hah, just kidding. You're fucking BORING!" FML
Today, I met the man of my dreams. Beautiful, smart, academic, charming, a true gentlemen, totally my type. I am at a bar voted "the best gay bar in the world". FML
Today, I was talking to a guy I met online and have known for four years. I've fallen in love with him twice, one of those times being currently. He was supposed to visit this summer. I got an email from him saying he's really a 17 year-old girl from Chesterfield, MO. FML
Today, I found out that I'm completely and utterly head over heels in love with a man who, as it turns out, doesn't actually exist. Thank you, the internet. FML
Today, I found out that I fell in love with a diagnosed sociopath, which I didn’t know until I broke up with them though. The worst part is now that I know, I want to go back because I’m fascinated. FML
Today, after months of dinners, coffees, drinks, and a few nights together, the girl of my dreams told me about this awesome guy she met yesterday. FML
Today, I joined a dating website and spent all day filling out and improving my profile. My first match is a guy who relentlessly tried to date me for all 4 years of high school. Now he just has more reasons to tell me how much we're meant to be. We're a 97% match. FML

Unless you are directly involved with his doctor or insurance company, I fail to see the conflict of interest. if anything it would make you better at your job, since he would benefit from the research and you would benefit from close interactions

Go for it. Nobody cares! If one data point is going to throw off your research, your sample size is too small for influential work.

Some times you just have to say 'Screw the ethics!' and go for what really matters! Wish you the best of luck!💕

If you feel that strongly, why not ask your director/HR and see if there's something you can do if an official declaration is made.. There's always a way...

I hope, for your sake, his "condition" isn't micropenis.

It’s not unethical if you declare any potential conflict of interest and invite review of any data concerning him. Life is short and true love is relatively rare. Figure it out.

I think what she means is that a researcher doesn't date the research, it would be like a whiskey maker dating a drunk or a police officer dating a convict not to mention that most researchers are barred from personal contact with the research subjects unfortunately.

If he is not a subject of your study or you do not have access to confidential information about him personally as a result of your work then it is not unethical to date.
