    "Background: Interpersonal attraction is influenced by many factors like  physical attraction, similarity or proximity. The impact of chronic  illnesses on romantic relationships hasn’t been studied very deeply.  Method. An experimental study was completed in order to analyze how the  chronic disease influences the choice of a romantic partner and the  compensatory role of partner’s personality traits on relationship  assessment. Five hundred and forty undergraduate students (270 men and  270 women from 18 to 31 years old) participated in this experiment.  Results. The effect of chronic disease upon romantic partner’s choice  proved to depend on the type of partner’s personality traits. The  positive personality traits compensated the physical chronic disease and  the chronic diseases compensated the negative traits of personality.  This study is one of the few done in this field and brought valuable  information’s about ill person’s assessment as a partner in a romantic  relationship."
