Functional problem solving was positively correlated with altruistic love, friendship love and passionate love styles. Functional problem solving was negatively correlated with game playing love. But functional problem solving was not found to be significant associated with possessive love and pragmatic love. Social interest was found to be positively linked with altruistic love, friendship love and passionate love styles. Social interest was negatively associated with game playing love.
