Love and relationships...

From corelog, interesting but I think not entirely accurate.

Your Five Variable Love Profile

Propensity for Monogamy: Your propensity for monogamy is low. You see love as a gift that you should give to many. It's hard for you to imagine being with one person at at time... Let alone one person for the rest of your life! Experience Level: Your experience level is high. You've loved, lost, and loved again. You have had a wide range of love experiences. And when the real thing comes along, you know it! Dominance: Your dominance is low. This doesn't mean you're a doormat, just balanced. You know a relationship is not about getting your way. And you love to give your sweetie a lot of freedom. Cynicism: Your cynicism is medium. You'd like to believe in true and everlasting love... But you've definitely been burned enough to know better. You're still an optimist, but you also are a realist. Independence: Your independence is medium. In relationships, you need both "me time" and "we time." You usually find it easy to be part of a couple. But occasionally you start to feel a little smothered.

Eh, I don't like this one much. It reads too much into a single answer.

There is one question, "If someone cheats, a relationship should probably end." Yes gives monogamy high, with the line "Any sign of straying, and you'll end things." No give monogamy medium, with the line "But it's hard for you to stay devoted for too long!"

That's quite a jump.

So, I'd say:
Monogamy high (san the ending things line)
Experience medium
Dominance low
Cynicism medium
Independance medium

As so often happens with these things, it draws large conclusions from little evidence, and pretends the wisdom of great experience from very little actual knowledge. The majority of these quizzes seem to be designed by kids in their teens or early 20s, which rather explains the tendency to extremes.

Yeah, finally added you to my friends list. I think we've had enough good solid conversation on Rex's journal that I'm curious. ;)

And online tests are silly, but can be fun. :)

Welcome. I'll reciprocate immediately. ;)

I don't know you well enough, unfortunately, to determine how accurately this quiz represents you, but I must disagree that your propensity for monogamy can't be that low since you have devoted yourself to one other person for years.

See my monogamy comments in that other meme, the one that said I was type "N". Monogamy is practical and simplest to keep working, and sex is far from the most important thing in my life anyway. By nature, I would probably be polyamorous, but that is much more complicated and takes a whole lot of energy and dedication to make it work. Besides, I suspect it is almost impossible to do without hurting feelings sometimes, and I don't like that.

In this particular case, I posted the quiz results because they are interesting, but I agree that this author draws too many hard conclusions from too little evidence.

The Eternal Optimist part fits (I'm nothing if a sucker
for wuv *facepaws*) but I think I'm a lot more devoted
and hard headed about commitment then this test says.

Well, I think that thing about commitment and temptation is just that. You could be very committed to monogamy (as I am) but if you still notice or think about other possibilities at times, you're not absolutely monogamous. I think that's all it says.

Mostly this seems to fit you, from what you've said and I've guessed. ;)
