Incorporating The Results Of True Love Tests Into Your Life Planning Process

By Nancy Gardner


There is no doubt about it. Taking true love tests that are offered online or in magazines is a lot of fun. The process makes you think about your significant other and especially whether the two of you would be a good match to stay together for the long haul.

Loneliness is one factor that drives individuals towards forging domestic partnerships. But there are other reasons to become part of a couple, including overall health. Scientists have confirmed that those who live with committed partners have lower rates of chronic diseases than people living alone.

When you consider how this could affect you, it is prudent to come to terms with the fact that the type of information produced by a love quiz falls short of what is needed to predict the longevity of a relationship. Of course, it helps to know whether movie going and fancy restaurants hold appeal for both of you. But there are deeper issues that must be taken into account.

The extent of your sexual connection is a key factor. A desire for frequent touching and intimacy bodes well for your future together, especially if your heart starts racing at the first sight of your lover on a daily basis. Be warned, however, that relationship specialists say there is a potential for abuse if your partner has a controlling nature or seems to feel a sense of ownership towards you.

Also, do not be fooled into thinking you have to agree with each other all the time in order to be happy and stay together. It is rare to find a couple that is on the same page in every given situation. One key to a lasting relationship is the ability to argue with confidence in a respectful manner without getting carried away. This means listening thoroughly to your partner before committing to a position on important issues.

Having similar core values goes a long way towards ensuring success when it comes to romance. This does not mean you had to have been raised in the exact same manner. Rather, it means you should share beliefs on certain matters, like spirituality, honesty and being faithful.

It's just as important to make sure you agree on practical issues, such as whether to have children and how to treat your finances. It is shocking to discover how many people get married without having discussions on these topics. Then, when they discover they have opposing views on whether to spend or save, or how large their family should be, they rush off to a counselor to try to keep the relationship from breaking apart.

Troubles like these can be mitigated in advance if both parties engage fully in honest communication when the relationship is starting to blossom. The responses you both give to love tests can show you whether you are likely to get along on a superficial level. However, if you want to find out if you could be successful as long-term partners, you will have to be daring enough at some point to tell the absolute truth about your inner desires and what you want out of life.
