    • This is a highly binary and leading question and there is only one possible answer. Opt for the wrong one and the exam is declared void immediately. Missing someone can be very moving, but it has nothing, strictly nothing to do with a fitness to return. One can miss someone and know, or should know, that they are absolutely not a person ever to get close to again. One can both utterly regret a partner and not in any way benefit from being with them. Of course, someone might tell a lie at this juncture, but at least it will be clear to them that they are having to deceive in order to proceed. No one can be in any doubt as to the purpose of this exam, to search out and probe at signs of learning rather than signs of love.
