^ I was curious about that too, but the text says that "The intensity of passion one feels toward another tends to levels off during the course of most prolonged relationships." and I was wondering what if I meet someone and at first sight I feel attracted towards that person but after a few weeks I don't feel that attracted to that person as I realise I don't like that person's personality and the way he/she acts and expresses himself. Could my attraction towards that person turn into something contrary to what I felt at first? And what if I know someone for a long time and the first time I saw that person I felt attracted to him/her and after years I began to feel even more attracted to that person? How can these situations be explained?

To make matters a little bit more complex, we penalize the RQ score if only one side to the relationship contributes to the mutual quality, and we reword the RQ if the strength of a mutual quality is higher than 1 (one).

Love RQ of 87 for the relationship between Princess Diana and Prince Charles is calculated as follows:
1. Add 33.33 (1/3) for mutual commitment.
2. Add nothing for mutual intimacy.
3. Add 33.33 (1/3) for mutual passion.
4. Add 20 points for mutual passion = 3 (10 points for each increment).
Total = 33.33 + 33.33 + 20 = 87.

No penalty was given because both mutual commitment and mutual passion are contributed by Prince Charles and Princess Diana alike.

How do you calculate the penalty? How much are you going to subtract for each reduction? Is't 10 like it's if the mutual quality is higher than 1? I will use 10 in the followng exampel: If A has a value of 0 and B a value of 4 and the mutual value is 2, are you then going to subtract 40 (4-0=4x10) or 20 (4-2=2x10)? Could someone please explain this to me.

Welcome aboard, Neth. In the example which you quoted we are using only the mutual value in the equation. I guess that your question about A & B is directed more toward how the mutual value has been calculated.

Please look at the bottom few Q&As in the About Commitment post and let me know if further information is required.

Thank you very much for keeping us alert and on our toes at all times

I agree that what I wrote years ago about passion is too one-dimensional. Please read the revised post about passion and let me know how you feel about it.
