It's a very common phenomena for clients to develop feelings for their therapists. Its called Transference. Technically it is (and I paraphrase) 'the redirection of feelings and desires and especially of those unconsciously retained from childhood toward a new object'.

Maybe once you understand the origin of your feelings, they will go.
