As a single person --
a) I mope around all day like a sick cow...it's pathetic!
b) I feel contented, but I'd enjoy meeting somebody nice
c) I actually prefer being alone, rather than loving another loser!
If my lover gave me a gift I didn't like, I would probably --
a) throw it in his (or her) face
b) accept it graciously, but never use (display, wear) it
c) explain tactfully why it's inappropriate
d) force a smile, then drawl "you shouldn't have"
e) accept it graciously and later use (display, wear) it
I believe that a "heart-to-heart" talk with my companion is --
a) the essence of love
b) a grim necessity
c) a chance to share pet peeves
d) who needs to TALK...when you can WRESTLE!
Most of all, I want my lover --
a) to know his (or her) place
b) to be enormously attractive
c) to never forget my birthday
d) to comfort me when I'm blue
The most important thing in any relationship is --
a) the ability to share feelings
b) similar interests
c) in-laws getting along
d) to never leave the toilet seat up
Count the number of a's & b's you circled.
0-3 You scored a little less than you should have. (Even THE GREMLIN is perturbed at you!) Perhaps a good book would help. Recommended is Excess Baggage: Getting Out of Your Own Way, by Judith Sills, Ph.D., a leading therapist (with over sixteen years of experience) who explores, with shrewd insight, the various stages of love, sex, and romance.
4-5 You seem to understand what makes a relationship WORK. (And, what's more, you're not desperate to plunge into one!) You're also gifted with a positive attitude, a love of communication, and tact.
