About This Quiz

Relationships are complicated; you don't need us to tell you that. You're opening your heart and soul to another human being, and it just doesn't always work. Sometimes you're not ready, and sometimes they're not ready. Sometimes you find out they're the kind of person who eats sandwiches in the bathroom. That's weird, right? So what are you supposed to do about it? Do you work on it and give them another chance? Do you pack it all up and run for the hills? And does it matter how much time you've put into the relationship already? No one teaches you about this stuff, which is super weird. It's just all gut instinct and maybe some advice from friends and family that you hope is at least a little relevant. It can drive you all kinds of buggy if you let it. 

If you're at a crossroads right now and you're not sure what the best path to take is, maybe you need a little nudge in the right direction. Maybe you just need a few minutes to get some perspective on who and where you are in life and the answer will come to you. We're here to help! We're not telling you anything you don't know, just trying to make it all clear. Take the quiz and see!
