Initiative

This criterion can be characterized as the opposite of the first criterion. If egocentrism is a focus on oneself, then initiative is the degree of passion for the partner. The score on this criterion can change in each new relationship. A high degree of initiative encourages active actions towards the partner. If this indicator is approximately at the same level (with a difference of up to 40%), then they will perceive such activity favorably and with understanding. The opposite is true when one partner has the highest level of initiative and the other has 0%. In this case, the behavior of the proactive partner may seem too intrusive. In particularly difficult cases, dependent relationships can form, where the initiator puts pressure with his activity, trying to manipulate.
