Snape's Results
Chapter 52 ~ Snape's Results
After about five minutes, Snape's results arrived in Hermione's mailbox. She quickly printed them out, folded them up and stuck them in her coat pocket as Snape scowled at her.
"You could at least let me see the results," he griped as they exited the cafe and stood in front of the bank for the next bus.
"When we get back," she said, smirking at him. "I want to be nice and comfortable when we go over this."
Snape sighed.
The gods only knew what those results would say.

Your Results:
There are 8 kinds of love that range from non-love to true love. The kind of love we can find depends upon our needs for passion, intimacy, and commitment. This test is also called the love triangle because the kind of love we find depends upon how much we need of these three key ingredients that create love. The definitions for these eight kinds of love are as follows:
--Non Love: the kind of love we have for people we meet at work or on the street
--Liking: This is best described by good intimacy but no passion or commitment such as being great friends.
--Infatuation: This is puppy love, when passion is high but commitment and intimacy is low and best described by that first heart throb that lasted 2 weeks.
--Empty Love: This is found most often in couples who have been together for many years, raised a family, the children are gone, and although their commitment is high, they have neither passion nor intimacy.
--Romantic Love: This is best demonstrated by couples who have been together less than 2 years; they have high passion and intimacy, but they have not yet reached a stage of commitment.
--Companionship Love: Older couples often find themselves in this form of love. They are intimate and committed to each other, however, their passion has faded.
--Fatuous Love: Fatuous is a psychological euphemism for stupid and best demonstrated by couples who are committed to their long term relationship because the sex is great, but the intimacy is low. These couples may develop intimacy over the years, but more often than not, they will either split up or remain unhappy and find intimacy elsewhere.
--True Love: That form of love happens in less than 10% of relationships. It's when all three levels of passion, intimacy, and commitment are high.

Facets
Intimate Love - Intimacy in a relationship can best be compared to being best friends. Best friends share secrets, love to confide in each other, enjoy doing things together, and most of all, they would rather be with each other than anyone else. Intimacy is the second stage of most relationships, after passion, but before commitment. Sometimes however, like "When Harry Met Sally," it can be the first stage of a relationship followed by passion and finally, commitment. Although commitment usually reaches its peak just one to two years into a relationship, it's very important that it be maintained at a very high level throughout a relationship. You will have a very hard time forming an intimate bond (friendship) with someone. Your score on intimacy is in the lower 15 percentile of all people who took this test. This doesn't mean that you cannot find passionate love because most of us can. It just means that you will not be able to move to the second stage of love which is required before you can find commitment and eventually, True Love.
Passionate Love - Passion is all about chemistry. It's the first stage of most relationships, the stuff of romance writers, and that first love that we all remember so well. If you read the Mary articles on Chemistry, you will know that passion is Mother Nature's way of making sure that our species will survive. Passion tends to diminish as the relationship gets older, which creates a huge marketplace for writers to tell us how to get that magic feeling back. However, there's nothing wrong with "diminished" passion, provided that intimacy and commitment grow. The key to happiness is balance between passion, commitment, and intimacy. Passionate love is going to be difficult for you. You scored in the lower 30% of people who took this test. As we get older, it's normal for passionate love to subside somewhat, but it's still necessary if we are going to find True Love. Without passion, you can still develop bonds of intimacy and commitment but that is not as fulfilling as finding True Love! Sometimes, our passion dies because of bad experiences or for medical reasons that reduce our libido. If that is your case, you should seek medical treatment because these conditions are reversible with proper therapy and/or medication.
Committed Love - Commitment is all about the oath that we take: "Until death do us part." Although we are fast to make such an oath early in our relationship, it's usually the third stage of most relationships. Commitment grows as the relationship gets older, unless external events such as children and career or even retirement interfere. If commitment wanes too much, divorce will ensue, unless passion and intimacy remain strong. However, the key to happiness is balance between passion, commitment, and intimacy and keeping all three at the highest level possible. You are not quite ready for True Love. Your score for commitment was in the 30-70 percentile of everyone who took this test. Are you ready to settle down to just one relationship? If you scored high in Passion and Intimacy, you will eventually find True Love, when you're ready to commit... but don't commit until you are really sure that you want to stay in a relationship for the rest of your life because the financial and emotional costs of separation and divorce are not worth it. Think before you commit.
