Tiny,
As someone who also suffers with DID, you have to be very careful. Our boundaries are blurred. We (meaning I here) are easily confused with fantasy and reality. I would really analyze why these feelings are coming up and share them with the T. I think this is transference. Transference is not a bad thing.
You mentioned this person is married and with children. This can go many ways: 1) You want to recreate an unconscious pain by getting involved with an unavailable person 2) You see this person as a safe person to have sexual fantasies. 3) This person reminds you unconsciously of another person that brought you pain in association with sex.
Only you have the answers, but they need to be discovered by you. I really don't think this has anything to do with him. Remember, you are the one creating this fantasy. What's the motive? Is it to stop a therapeutic relationship? Find out whats really going on Tiny. Talk with the T. This is actually very common transference in therapy. Let us know what happens.
