I tried searching the forum for answers and could not find any on this topic. I understand it's unethical and frowned upon to date patients, but I am asking about dating a patients relative after the physician/patient relationship has ended, is it still unethical/illegal?

From my point of view, as long as one do not practice unethical behaviour during the treatment timeline of the patient, it is ok.
