The Love Readiness Test will help you focus on your ability to achieve and maintain a relationship based on love. Many factors of maturity and lifestyle affect your ability to find love. Once you pinpoint your weaknesses, you can realize how to work on improving them to aid your relationship with your current partner, or help you prepare for a future mate. Love is a serious emotion. Playing with other people’s hearts can be dangerous, both to yourself and your partner.

Love Readiness is divided into ten categories, as follows:

• 1) Age - “Do you think you are old enough to handle the emotions of love?”
• 2) Stage - “So you may be mature for your age, but are you at the best stage in your life to fall in love?”
• 3) History - “Have you learned from past relationships to prepare you for the next big one?”
• 4) Family Background - “Have your parents’ and grandparents’ divorce or marriage impacted your readiness to fall in love?”
• 5) Ability to Compromise - “Do you have the ability to compromise on important issues with another person?”
• 6) Need to Control - “Do you need to control every aspect of your life (and of someone else’s life)?”
• 7) Independence - “Do you want to stay completely independent when you fall in love or are you looking for co-dependence?”
• 8) Friends - “Can you divide your time effectively between your friends and your love?”
• 9) Commitment - “Can you make the ultimate commitment to another person?”
• 10) Marriage - “Do you want this love to lead down the aisle?”

These ten categories are designed to measure the elements required for a successful relationship based on love. It is important to distinguish between infatuation and love. Love is a deeper emotion based on communication, mutual respect, and maturity. Be sure to answer all questions honestly to gain insight into your ability and level of preparedness for love.
