form an attachment

"He formed an attachment with a young widow."
Does this suggest a sexual relationship?

Thank you.

It's certainly a suggestion...

It is certainly inferred that there is a kind of love or bond there but it may not necessarily be sexual. You'd want to look at the context to be sure.
