Now, let's see what we have understood from this study. We have discovered that love relationship is a dynamic structure created by the feelings partners evoke in each other. We have learnt that a love relationship cannot be left to grow by itself. Like every structure, it must be built upon a strong foundation if it is to survive. That foundation comprises four progressive stages or components we call compatibility, trust, commitment and fulfilment. The components are made up of characteristics or elements love partners agree are meaningful and mutually important to them. Like every structure, the relationship has to be maintained and serviced periodically.

We have shown that How To Measure Your Love provides a technique to evaluate the elements and components of love relationships. The technique highlights disparities in elements which then form the basis for discussion so that we may take preventive measures to ensure their continued strength.

It is our heartfelt hope that this technique will fall in the hands of all serious lovers contemplating marriage and family. We clamour to save the trees from acid rain depletion, we march in protest to uphold animal rights, we mount rallies to proclaim our right to euthanasia, and yes, we aver our right to abort the innocent unborn. Who clamours for our right to be loved? Who clamours for the family?

Let us get serious about ensuring that we, who dare to fall in love for the right reasons, lay a foundation built solidly on the pillars of compatibility, trust, commitment and fulfilment. Help rebuild the only true foundation of society, the family, where the strength of all nations lie. A weak and disorganized family creates a weak and disorganized nation. But, a family built on the four pillars of love serves the nation well.
