Some Conflict Skills
You scored 67 Conflict Smarts and 39 Pneumatix!
If you scored in this range then you are on your way to being able to build a stable relationship. You are less angry and more conciliatory than you might be. There is hope!
Dr. Gottman says that more than half of the marriages that fail do so within the first six years and opines that getting help early is a good way to save a relationship. If you're here then you may need some help.
This category is based on the Conflict Smarts variable only. The Pneumatix variable is meant to show the special skills necessary to men. In this score range the Pneumatix level will become particularly important.
Theoretically if you're female then your Pneumatix score should already be 100%, if its not then you may be a bit too independent to form a lasting marriage. Time to learn to make compromises!
If you're male, you should probably have a Pneumatix score over 65%, or else you don't have the skills for intimacy either.
This test is based on the ideas from the following URL and my own imagination on how it might apply in real life:
