A Test to See How Compatible You Are With Your Partner
Have you taken a relationship compatibility test? If not, are you going to take it? Although it can be seen as untrue and irrelevant, it can be a useful item in your relationship more than just a mere test.
First, if you are into a new relationship, you can take this test at some point of time. Introduce it as nothing more than a fun game, lest the results come out unsatisfactory and both of you take it too seriously. If it comes up bad,dismiss it at first; no point frowning over a test in the beginning of a relationship. If its good, it serves as a encouragement to both of you. But do not take it for granted. Do not be complacent. Although it can be taken lightly at first, remember that all failures of relationship occurs from some degree of uncompatibility.
Being compatible means more than getting along well. Anyone can get along well with anyone else if he or she tries hard enough. There are more things like maturity and perspectives on bigger issues such as life and world view, and more importantly habits and personality. These are things that cannot be changed overnight, or even after a long time, or even forever.
These are things that you have to deal with every moment of your binded lives. Therefore if there is uncompatibility in a “core” area, you may expect lots of problems.
The reason why the relationship compatibility quiz work so well is because it attacks those core areas. You have to answer questions about your beliefs and ideas, as well as those of your partner. Then you will find out if those perceptions are compatible. In the opening,I mentioned that this can be more than just a test. When things go bad,look back at this test and tell yourselves that you are essentially compatible, that this is just a small misunderstanding, and let the matter be resolved peacefully. Besides compatibility, understanding the other person and accepting him or her for who he/she is will be another great factor for a lasting relationship. Perhaps true compatibility lies in compromising one’s views for the mutual benefit of love and peace.

A compatability quiz is a fun and useful tool for couples to engage in as part of their journey in getting to know one another. It’s great for opening up conversations that may otherwise not take place. Exploring each other in this way can be eye opening.
There is one thing missing though! That is that we don’t pick partners with our conscious minds. It is always(unless it is an arraged marriage or a marriage for a specific purpose other than “love.”)unconsious. We have a template inside us of the person we feel attracted to and it’s usually to do with unfinished business. We tend not to see the real person our partner is but the one we need to see to resolve personal issues for ourselves – am I loveable? etc.
