You are most definitely not the only one.

the thing I found compelling about Laura and Paul was not so much did they love each other- I always thought it was conscious and sub-conscious self delusion- but the danger always crackling away in their sessions. They verbally tested each other in a way his other season one patients didn't, because they were both heterosexual and of appropriate age. Their flirtation or avoidance of it made the sessions tense. I always found them riveting watching because I honestly thought anything could happen- she could throw a tantrum because Paul didn't respond the way she wanted, one or the other was about to pounce on the other, that the communication would unravel into full arguments. He seemed to want to test himself with her, that he could see the way she could manipulate a situation and wanted to best her, but by engaging he was getting bogged down in her issues instead of seeing them for the smokescreen they were.
such a great series- loved watching two people in a room just talking.
