Description: Finite state machine description of love affairs:

This is actually stuff which I mailed to some friends which is being sent
to you upon their recommendation.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary of present research and results:

STATE TRACING:

Examples of Stable Systems:
-------------------------

(1) Standard Student Affairs:

   Nothing -> Interest -> Dating -> Love -> Deep Love -> Love / Lust

   -> Deep Lust -> Too Deep -> Major Blowout -> Nothing -> Nothing -> Nothing ..


(2) Good Catholic Affairs:

   Nothing -> Interest -> Marriage -> Wedding Night -> Nothing -> Nothing 
   
   -> Nothing .......

   ( Sorry, but I am Church of England afterall )


(3) Standard Anglican Affairs:

   Nothing -> Interest -> Love -> Lust -> Affair -> 5 months -> Marriage -> Lust

   -> 4 months -> Deep Love -> Love / Work -> Work -> Affair -> Affair 
   
   -> Affair  -> ........  


Example of Unstable ( oscillatory ) System:
-------------------------------------------

(4) The Indeterminate System:

                                     / -> Love       ->  Deep Love |     
 Nothing -> Interest -> Friendship -|                              |-> Let's
                                     \ -> Friendship ->  What  ??? |


                                    | -> Pain   \
straighten thing out conversation ->|            |-> Nothing -> Friendship
				    | -> Relief /


   / -> Lust (?) 
->|                        ????   Simulation still running
   \ -> ?????     



Finite State Machine Description of Damped System:
--------------------------------------------------

(5) Movie Star:

  Nothing -> Movie Contract -> Stunning Supporting Lead Actor/Actress -> Affair

  -> Publicity -> Marriage -> 4 weeks -> Divorse -> Hearing -> Destitute

  -> B grade Movie Contract -> Good Support Lead Actor/Actress -> Affair

  -> Some Publicity -> Marriage -> 4 months -> Divorse -> Hearing -> Destitute

  -> C grade Movie Contract -> Supporting Actor/Actress -> Drugs -> Affair

  -> Who Cares ?? -> DeFacto Relationship -> NOTHING ->NOTHing -> Nothing .....



Reduced Finite State Machine Theory for Critically Damped Systems:
-----------------------------------------------------------------

(6) Predicted Step Response Description:

 Nothing -> Friendship -> Love -> power down -> power up -> Latch up state: Hate

 -> Friendship -> Friendship .......

 At present, empirical data is being gathered to support this theory.
