It was very thorough.
There were countless lessons on probing into the fears and resentments which can chill a relationship. Yep, there were exercises too, you know, sensual massage, idle touching, stuff like that. We even got to see some very interesting film.
Still, we wondered: Sometimes, no matter how much touchy feely stuff they did, many couples' relationships remained cold and lonely, let's get it over with already affairs.
I piped up much to the professor's chagrin that I thought it was really all about chemistry, plain and simple, some people turn you on and some people just don't, and you can do all the hot tubbing and smooching in the world, and that basic chemistry won't change, that it is often the case that even people you think should turn you on, just don't turn you on, no matter how much interesting yellow panties and other thingies they may wear.
Lucky, it was a pass fail class, and the guy had to pass me.
I did not grow up to be a sex therapist, and that has made all the difference.
