I think he's achieved that. Even a rabid Liverpool fan must have the odd moment of honest clarity and realise how long it has been since they even threatened to win the league never mind dominate it as they used to...in the past (where they once accused us of living!)

Crikey! Al, I'm amazed this is still in the air with nursey. I'm glad to see your comment above but temptation is a dangerous and insidious beastie. Be careful chap. The buzz of desire can blind you to reality and to what you already have.
You mention cards-on-the-table and fear that you might have misread her signals. Maybe that's the best way of having a heart-to-heart with her? It still flatters her, admits your attraction and the gaping disaster zone that awaits should you succumb. Ask her to understand and to help avoid it reaching that stage by understanding if you try and be a little less flirtatious.
I'm speaking from experience. I got really tempted 5 or 6 years ago in much the same way as you. We never even held hands but for a while the whole thing simmered and could easily have boiled over. Tempting for sure but I stepped back. Shortly after MrsJim got pregnant for the fifth time and we had our first child (you've met Thomas). I still think it was my reward from God and I'm not a terribly religious person.
Tread carefully my friend. Try and spend some time reminding yourself why you fell in love with MrsAl. Do something nice for her - she might appreciate a gentle romantic gesture while she feels all big and unattractive and under threat from nursey .
