He sounded cool on the phone, probably because his wife was nearby. We didn't have an afair or anything but we definitely shared a strong connection, not just professionally.Anyway, after his cold phone call, I was upset and had a few too many beers and I wrote him an email, professing my love for him and that I feel he has the same feelings for me. Now, I regret having done so. I feel that I let my hair down too much and that I embarrassed myself. He hasn't emailed me back and I'm afraid to ever look him in the eye again should I see him at the clinic....When we saw each other before we always hugged for a very long time and I'm certain of a connection/attraction but my email may have screwed up any possible future now, right?

(even if he doesnt believe u) just say it! and im sure he wont want to lose you as a friend. I reckon he'll be so flattered and men love that so watch out he doesnt carry leading you on now and give u false hopes!! but i reckon u should just forget him anyway as soon as u can and find someone new, easier said than done, but honestly he's married dont complicate your own life u deserve better xxx

Most likely he was shocked and taken aback, plus embarrassed. Perhaps you should find another clinic - or if you cannot do that, avoid him like the plague if you run into him there.

Have you considered staying out of his life since he's a married man? Really, you hugged for a long time. How nice. Is that something to build a relationship on?
