Why is one attracted to certain people? What makes a romantic relationship last? Is it better to see a romantic partner for who they really are or to see them through rose-colored glasses? This course grapples with the meaning of love, dating and sex, navigating difficult conversations, and what the deepest relationships reveal about oneself. Using an intersectional lens, the class explores the social psychology of close intimate relationships via reading, written reflection, and group discussion. Prerequisite: PSY 202 or SDS 201. Enrollment limited to 25.

[CE] PSY 202, SDS 201 or 210
