Elaine, when you reveal your true colors in love, you're a
Romantic Partner
You tend to be a traditionalist when it comes to love. As a result, you likely appreciate the rituals of courtship that can come along with finding someone special. Flowers, holding hands, thoughtful notes — these are the kinds of things that can set a heart like yours aflutter. However, it's probably equally important to you that you find a partner who's steadfast and true. After all, you want to be with someone who'll be as devoted in a relationship as you are — the kind of person who'll stand by you in good times and bad. Romantic partners tend to believe in more traditional gender roles than most people do. If this is true for you, you may also find yourself looking for a mate who'll be at ease with the idea that men should be the breadwinners and providers.

Because of your romantic nature, it's probably easy for an attractive stranger to catch your eye. However, finding your soul mate is apt to be a more elusive reward. As someone who usually places real importance on the emotional bond you share with a partner, you don't want to be with just anyone. You want the kind of mate who can satisfy at least some of your treasured fantasies. Ideally, this will be a person who also is open to sharing their dreams with you. Having a satisfying sexual relationship is usually important to people of your type, so keep your radar out for that sensual someone who'll be able to bring a bit of magic to the bedroom.

When a new romance presents itself, you're likely to enjoy it to the fullest. You're the kind who sees love as a bit of an adventure. As a result, you aren't above acting impulsively or in ways that are a bit out of character to explore it. It can be fun for you to try on new relationships to see what fits. When you're single, you tend to be an independent person who feels comfortable spending time alone. However, when you become involved in a serious relationship, you may find some of your independent spirit slipping away. In fact, for a time you may find yourself wanting to share everything with your romantic partner. This is natural for romantic partners like you.

As your relationship matures, you'll most likely find your way back to your independent nature. You may even become somewhat sensitive about having time and space to yourself. It's during this phase of your relationship that you can revive any friendships that may have suffered during your early days of being head-over-heels. Understanding this pattern and being able to communicate it to your partner in a positive, loving way can help them understand your needs as the relationship moves ahead.

When your partner has their own relationship concerns to discuss, you tend to be pretty easygoing and can usually tolerate criticism well. Unlike most, you're likely to perceive your friends' and lovers' constructive criticisms as acts of compassion; so you aren't apt to take their words too personally. This kind of receptivity is a great relationship skill to have, as long as you don't allow yourself to be pushed beyond your comfort zone. Instead, use your communication talents to make sure that both you and your partner have the chance to be heard. That way, discussions of differences aren't apt to escalate into full-blown arguments.

At times when you're feeling blue, romantic types like yourself can sometimes dwell on sorrows so much that they seem larger than they really are. If you find yourself becoming withdrawn in this way or avoiding the kind of close personal contact that you usually enjoy, try to take a step outside of yourself. If you can let your sadness pass, rather than hanging on to it too tightly, you'll likely find that you're more than able to roll with the punches. You aren't the kind of person who's afraid to ask for help, so seek out someone to comfort and counsel you in times like these, whether it's a friend, a family member, or therapist. Then you can get back to the optimistic, loving nature that draws others to you.

Your Outlook on dating
Whether you're new to the dating scene or a self-proclaimed expert, your perspective about dating will go a long way toward determining your ultimate success in finding the partner who's right for you. Just remember that no matter what your view of dating is today, you always have the power to change it if it isn't bringing you what you desire. Here's what your colors revealed about your present outlook:

With your cheerful, optimistic attitude, you probably won't be single any longer than you want to be. Although, these traits make you the kind of person who's happier and more comfortable going solo than many people are. However, that doesn't mean that you're not looking for someone to share your life with. In fact, that kind of deep emotional connection can be very important to you. Because you're a generally social person, it's likely that you have a healthy number of friends and acquaintances. Each one of these people offers you a higher chance of meeting new people to date. The more you get yourself out there, the more likely you are to find that special someone.

You may, however, find yourself in a bit of a rut when you venture out to find new people. At first, your love of routine and occasional resistance to change might keep you from reaching outside of your comfort zone. If you want to meet new people, you'll probably need to go new places, get involved in new activities, and seek out creative ways to meet singles. You might even want to try online dating. Trying these unfamiliar, sometimes adventurous, things can be a challenge, but think of the potential reward. Your dream date is not likely to simply drop into your lap one day, as much as you would like them to. Instead, you'll need to open yourself up to new possibilities to get out there and find them.

How You handle conflict
Once you find yourself as part of a couple, the way you and your new partner handle disagreements will become crucial to your relationship's long-term success. Realistically, you can't expect to avoid relationship problems entirely, so it's best understand whether or not the way you and your partner argue is compatible. This is something you'll usually be able to determine within the first three months of a relationship, and sometimes even sooner.
In your case, you may actually enjoy fighting with your partner to resolve relationship problems. However, your favorite part is likely the making up afterwards and soothing each other's battle wounds. You can have a quick-to-boil temper. As a result, if something goes wrong, you're likely to become angry and speak out. However, if your partner yells at you, you'll usually try to calm them down. Your primary goal in most arguments is to get your partner to understand your position and persuade them to feel the way you do. However, you are also concerned about how your partner is feeling. As a result, you try to understand their perspective as well. In relationships, you'd probably do best with a partner who can stand up for themselves and who can explain how they're feeling when they're upset.

If your partner confronts you when you've done something wrong, you may try to change the subject rather than face the consequences. If that doesn't work, you'll make other attempts to displace the tension. It can be difficult for you to have open, honest conversations about your own faults. However, to have the kind of close relationship you want, those are just the kinds of talks it will be important to have. Growing in relationships sometimes requires us to humble ourselves from time to time, and the rewards are worth it.

How you end your relationhip
The way a person ends their relationships is often a sign of both the maturity one gains through experience and the compassion one has for their romantic partners. Your colors showed that when you break up with someone, you may feel a little guilty that you can't continue the relationship. These pangs of remorse are natural. However, because of these emotions, you may choose to pick a fight with your partner or to simply cut off contact. These kinds of actions may seem like the easy way out. Unfortunately, they can also end up causing another person undue harm. When you talk to someone openly about your feelings to let them know why the relationship has stopped working for you, they will generally appreciate your forthrightness. This does not mean that they won't be disappointed or angry. But in the end, you are likely to feel better about the sense of closure you gained.
Now that you know what your color choices revealed about you in love, it's time to find out more about color itself.

How Do colours affect you?
The physical world is full of color. However, in its most scientific sense, color is simply a description of the way your eyes perceive an object as it interacts with light, and the way your brain interprets it. When you look at an object in the presence of light, you see the light reflected from that object. It is in this way that you're able to distinguish between hundreds of colors. Colors are wavelengths of light, recognized by sensory cones in the eye's retina. So recognizing color is actually one of the human body's many miraculous talents.

People communicate about colors through language — in this case, English. However, not all languages have the same kinds of color distinctions. For example, studies of the linguistic treatment of color have revealed that some languages do not make a distinction between green and blue or yellow and orange. Differences in color perceptions are not only blurry between different cultures; they can be problematic within cultures as well. Even if two people speak the same language, they can view color with different eyes. Imagine two people looking at a sunset: One sees more pink, the other sees more purple. It depends on their individual perceptions.
However, even with this imprecision, there is a high agreement between people regarding basic color names and distinctions. It's this fact that makes a discussion of color possible.

While you may think of vision as the primary way that people experience color, people also "feel" color. In the presence of different colors, our physical bodies can feel different. And researchers can measure these effects by changes in blood pressure, eye blink frequency, heart rate, and respiration. Western scientists agree that colored light can be used in treating medical patients with certain conditions. For example, premature babies with jaundice are cured by a chemical reaction triggered by exposure to blue light for several days. It is also known that red light is more likely to produce epileptic seizures than blue light. Western science did not discover these reactions to colored light, though. It is actually the ancient cultures of Egypt, China, and India that have histories of healing with color.

Outside of our physical or sensory experience of color, we also have psychological or emotional responses to colors. The most universal psychological responses to colors divide the color spectrum into "warm" and "cool" colors. Warm colors include red, orange, and yellow. They are believed to be stimulating or energizing (which are active or externally-driven responses). Cool colors include blue, green, and purple and are felt to be calming or peaceful (which are passive or internally-focused responses). Interestingly enough, these emotional reactions correspond with the physiological affects that colored light has on the body.

Beyond these major classifications, color attributions become varied and divergent across both cultures and individuals. For example, in Western culture, white is the traditional color for a wedding dress, whereas white is the color for mourning in China. There are many such discrepancies in the way people from different cultures think about particular colors. In addition to cultural feelings about color, people's perceptions of colors may also be affected by their ages, moods, life experiences, personalities, or mental health. People who share these characteristics, often share a common perception of colors.
