Thanks for the reply!  I don't have a wife, but maybe if I envisioned someone like a sister or cousin that would shift my thinking a bit.  I relate to what you're saying about how our minds can create this distorted visage.  For me, I guess it was a lot of getting lost in my own head with what she's thinking about me and what she must be feeling about being in this meeting and how I should be the mentsch and the man and step forward and "save her" as you put it. It was less about physical attraction, but maybe a more spiritual attraction, in a fantasy type way of course.  

Honestly, I hadn't given much thought to how to deal with future meetings, but I think I'll deal with it as it comes, and try not to make this a bigger deal than it is.  Between my effort to surrender the thought last night and being busy today, it has not been on my mind much.
