In these computations, the tensor (or the spin-orbit) correlations are considered in the <sup>3</sup>S<sub>1</sub>-<sup>3</sup>D<sub>1</sub> (<sup>3</sup>P<sub>2</sub>-<sup>3</sup>F<sub>2</sub>) state. The energy, as well as the healing distance of the ASM in the mentioned states, are reported. It is demonstrated that by decreasing the proton to neutron ratio, the non-central correlations (healing distances) of the coupled states grow. It is shown that the ASM non-central correlations and energies in the <sup>3</sup>P<sub>2</sub>-<sup>3</sup>F<sub>2</sub> state are more sensitive to the interaction than those of <sup>3</sup>S<sub>1</sub>-<sup>3</sup>D<sub>1</sub> state.<br />  The nucleon-nucleon correlations of asymmetric nuclear matter (ASM) in the <sup>3</sup>S<sub>1</sub>-<sup>3</sup>D<sub>1</sub> and the <sup>3</sup>P<sub>2</sub>-<sup>3</sup>F<sub>2</sub> states with the AV18 and the AV’6 potentials are studied in the lowest order constrained variational (LOCV) method.
