She's right OM's not the issue - other than that I think everything was good! You stayed calm, you talked, you said what you needed to say. And she opened up to you - excellent.
I also think the part about the job is a VERY good sign. It wasn't "*I* need a job so *I* can be independent of you" - it was "*I" need a job because *we* need the money." That is SO great.
The intimate feelings will come in time, especially as you become more open/intimate in your conversations and actions.
