Answer 2

I have no idea what the table below is, however, I do wonder what instrument you use to identify "pathological" liars, and how the scoring matrix is for that instrument. Is there a continuum on that quality? You know there are liars clubs, and conventions, and they compete for who is the better liar.

Answer 3

and, finally, the measurement of "quality" of romantic relationships. One wonders what that means. I suspect there is a great gender divide on what that means. Lord knows it is a great divide after marriage on what it means.

Answer 4

I don't have the "table below" either.

To give you some insight into "romance" (or love), here are some articles:
