The Romance and Passion Meters: love can be complex, but I can break it down for you! Our special Romance and Passion Meters reads the composite chart between you and your sweetie, and reveal the levels of romance and passion in your relationship. Now you'll know at a glance whether things will be smooth sailing, an uphill battle -- or a roller coaster ride between you both.
Before you jump in, there's a trick to reading the meters. You might think you want a lot of sweet stuff and very little spice, but what you really want is a balance between the two.

There will be a very comforting sense of stability to your connection. You'll know where you stand with each other, and that counts for a lot. To your friends, you may seem a bit on the serious or predictable side, or outwardly unaffectionate as a couple, but you'll both appreciate the fee...
This relationship will be nothing if not emotionally intense. In fact, it will have a profound transformative effect on both of you. If you stay together for any length of time, it's almost impossible that you'll remain unchanged. You'll teach each other everything you know about life and ...
Ego clashes and power plays are likely to become a way of life in this relationship. There will be a lot of energy between you that translates all too easily to aggression, competition and tension. You'll need to work very hard if you want to establish any sense of harmony or teamwork; oth...
There are a couple of different ways this influence can go. In one case, you may find that your communication takes on a dreamy, unclear quality. You could have a lot of trouble being honest with each other. Even when you are direct, your partner may have trouble understanding what they're...

You'll be much better off as a couple if you can train yourselves to deal with irritations as they come up instead of bottling them up inside, which will be your instinct. Bottling things up, of course, only makes them expand and eventually boil over, and at that point, the tension you've ...
