Love Language Exam Paper

If you were to remember the last English Language examination paper you had seen, you would remember that there were many different types of questions.

Some of us have a preference in doing a certain section of the paper, while others never liked any of the sections.

Well, the way a man/woman chooses his mate, is similar to the different sections.
To each section, I've known at least one friend who belongs to it.

So lets see what kind of question, would be your love style.


1. Multiple Choice

You are given 4 choices and you are supposed to choose one.
If this is your love style, you are more likely to get to know more girls/guys, and then from there you choose the best one.

Advantages:
It is good in a way because you get to know more people and you'll be clearer on who you are more compatible with, what kind of person you prefer to be with for the rest of your life.


Disadvantages:
The bad thing is that you might appear flirtatious to others.


Temptation to watch out for:
The instructions say circle one of the four available answers, DO NOT circle more than one answer!
Circling two or more answers does not mean that your chances of getting it right is higher just because you had definitely circled the right person.
In fact your answer becomes invalid because of the wrong answers that you circled along with the right one.
What I am trying to say is that you should know your limits.
Choose one girl/guy only, don't choose more than one!

Sample:
Which of the following girls do you want to be with for eternity? (Circle only one answer)
a) Jane
b) Jene
c) Jine
d) June

2. True or False


You are given a statement and can only answer TRUE or FALSE.
You do not have much choices, not because there is a lack of attracted personnel's, but because you only want to consider one at a time.


Advantages:
You are focused, it is only a yes or no.
There is no third party that you allowed your mind to be distracted by.


Disadvantages:
Because it is so direct and straight to the point, only a yes or no, you might spend too much time thinking of the answer.
You might become very indecisive and waste much time.


Temptation to watch out for:
Many people answer true or false questions straight away after reading the question.
Sometimes the question is tricky and you gotta read the question a few times to understand it first!
So stay in balance, don't decide too quickly nor waste too much time thinking.


Sample:
You are in love with Bob and recently you think of him more than stroking your pet chinchilla. True or False?


3. Fill in the blanks


You are given a question with a blank and you are supposed to fill it in with any word.
You are the kind who would not stop until you find the "Perfect One".
Your life is a quest for the Right Person.



Advantages:
You know what you want, and you are determine to fill in that blank, to answer that question.
Also, you can try out answers, putting them into the blank and see if it fits the sentence.
If it doesn't you can immediately change it.


Disadvantages:
A blank page, or a complete sentence would not be as distracting as an incomplete one.
Having that blank there could be very distracting to you sometimes.


Temptation to watch out for:
Do not spend too much time on filling in that blank.
Don't focus too much energy on it too, don't let it give you a headache.
It's not worth spending too much time on it because usually these questions only cost 1 or 2 marks, there are more important things in life.
If you can't think of an answer, move on to do other parts of the paper (your life) first before coming back to the question again.


Sample:
I want to be with _____ forever. (You might be stuck with the words 'girlfriend', 'mother', 'Barack Obama', etc, etc)



4. Comprehension

You have to read a passage first before answering a few questions.
You like to read other's lives.
You like to analyze other's lives.
You like to understand the one that you love and know more about him/her, (Not hiding behind a pillar or tree peeking though) before asking yourself many questions.
Questions on whether he/she is the right person for you.
Questions on how the future will be like if you would to be together with her.


Advantages:
If you managed to get many questions right, it means that you really understand the person that you like. It'll be fantastic because when understanding is present, a relationship would be easier to develop.


Disadvantages:
It would take a very long time to read the passage and think of the answers.
It could be a very slow process, so you will have to be patient.


Temptation to watch out for:
Don't think you've passed just because you've answered correctly only one of the questions.
People tend to get happy even though they got the other 4 questions wrong but one right.
Because one question itself in this section costs 5 marks!
What i am trying to say is that, because the person you like has one or a few very good point/s that you like, don't let it blind you from seeing the other many many problems that might be dangerous if this relationship moves one.
But you don't need to be too picky and get full marks for this section too.
At least get a good pass!

Sample:
(Too Long for a sample, hehe)


5. Essay

I'm going to glorify this point a little more.
Partly because its one of the most romantic of all, but MAINLY coz it's my love style!!
haha..
You are given a short question to write an essay on. You have to write a minimum of 500 words.
You are the type who would like to not just find your love, but in between have a love story as well.
You love stories.
You love love stories.
You love your story to be a good love story.
You love creative introductions.
You love a very eventful body (in terms of an essay).
You love an exciting climax.
You love the part where the characters have to go through so much trials.
You love to see the characters emerge in triumph.
You love the adventure, the intensity.
But most of all, you would love a fantastic ending.


Advantages:
You think about her/him quite often.
You pay attention to his/her simple details.
You love spending time with her/him, not just going for plain old cliche style dates, but always trying something daring and new.
You will end up loving the person a lot because of how much you've put into the relationship.


Disadvantages:
You might end up putting more effort into this relationship than her/him.


Temptation to watch out for:
You also might end up being more in love with the essay than with her.
I am referring to being in love with the romantic dates, adventure more than the person herself/himself.
And when nothing exciting is going on, you might feel that the love is no longer there.

Sample:
If you could choose, how would you like the day where you meet the one whom you'll marry to be like? How would things progress from there?


6. Leaving it Blank

You have totally no interest to answer any of the questions
It doesn't bother you if you end up not marrying.


Advantages:
You might have the gift of celibacy!
Unlike the average person, you wouldn't be so distracted by members of the opposite sex.
Thus you can focus more on other important things in life!


Disadvantages:
You will have to bear through many Chinese New Years & Christmases when your relatives often pop out the magical question on when will you be getting married.

Temptation to watch out for:
Rickson might avoid you because he is afraid that your 'celibacy anointing' might rub off on him and he might become a celibate too. (Nah, Rickson won't avoid people, but he really doesn't want a share in that anointing, so please don't lay hands on him, haha)

7. Wrong Questions (with spelling error, etc)

You are doing a wrong question!!

Your question has a punctuation or spelling error. It might not seem like a huge error, but there is a high chance of answering it wrongly since the question itself isn't even correct.

You are on the wrong path in life!

Maybe it's because it is not the right timing, that you should be focusing on other areas on your life for that moment.

Or it could be that you are looking for a wrong thing in a mate.

Maybe you just want to find a mate with a hot bod that you'll be attracted to, et cetera.

And that is one serious wrong question that you are on!


Advantages:
No Advantages, go report on the error in your question, get it changed!

Disadvantages:
The right answer to a wrong question is still a wrong answer.

Temptation to watch out for:
Because the question is wrong, it might seem very easy, and you might be tempted to just be lazy and answer the question hoping you'll get it right.

Sample:
I was be going to borrow you my flim when you ____ can anot?



So THAT'S ALL!!!
Though i say these are love styles, often it can be influenced by your circumstances.
For example i might be an essay guy, but suddenly if 4 very nice almost perfect girls fall for me (though i know it won't happen, haha), i might use the multiple choice style because of such a situation.

Its just an example lar, i won't end up like that i think, haha.


Value in view of time & eternity this post has.
As mentioned in the previous post, you need to know yourself better.
To enjoy life you gotta enjoy relationships.
And one of the most important relationship you will have is the relationship with yourself!
Thus, know yourself more!!
