Different personalities prefer different types of
romance. What happens is that we expect our mate to love
and be loved the way we feel loved. So what is romantic
to us is supposed to be romantic to them, right? Wrong!
Many personality tests exist that
describe four personality types. We've laid out what
expresses love to each of the personality types. Take
this RQ (Romantic Quotient) test. This is an open book
exam! See if you can pick yourself out-and see if you
can discern which type of lover you are married too.
