Poester,

how did the now retired mistress bring up or introduce or force you into ft, the first time or two, if I may ask? Was it somewhat of a surprise . . . or did she gradually let you know it was expected . . . or did you express an interest and willingness and then she followed up on that?

When you write that the training was optional and unimportant, you mean, sessions in which you did not consume but were close?
