Some quiz

We're perfect for each other because we have so much in common – we work in the same industry, share a love for French food, enjoy hiking, we even have the same taste in music!
True/False

Correct Answer: False
It's wonderful to have found a soul mate, but just because you share the same likings and interests doesn't necessarily mean you will have the same strong passion for each other. In fact, happily married couples can have very different characters. What's more important is that you have to have real affection for each other, feel comfortable, be able to share your deepest thoughts and feel safe being in a relationship with your guy.


We have strong passion for each other, that's why our arguments tend to get so heated.
True/False

Correct Answer: False
All couples will have disagreements at times. These tiffs actually present opportunities that allow us to address the different issues that concern us. But big, ugly fights are a different story: When you both do or say things that really hurt or scare you, it takes you a long time to recover. And that's bad for the relationship.


He lies sometimes, but that's okay as long as they're harmless white lies.
True/False

Correct Answer: True
The truth is, most guys fib about little things. And a guy like that isn't necessarily worse off than a guy who's always compelled to tell the truth. Remember those times when you put on 10 pounds and asked him if you looked fatter? Let's face it, how would you have felt if he had replied yes instead of no? There's nothing wrong with small white lies, but if he lies often enough that you don't know whether to trust him or not, (for example he led you to believe that he's out for a drink with his guy friends and you found out that he's actually drinking with two female colleagues), your relationship is on seriously shaky ground. Cut him loose.


It doesn't matter if my friends and family don't approve of him. The only thing that matters is that we love each other deeply.
True/False

Correct Answer: False
If it's just one girlfriend who has a negative opinion about him, you're probably right not to take her appraisal too seriously. But if your friends and family are warning you against your guy, then there has to be a grain of truth somewhere. Perhaps you are too smitten by his charms to see things objectively.


I know he is the one for me because he has seen me at my worst and still loves me.
True/False

Correct Answer: True You are not seeing him for who he really is unless you've shown yourself for who you really are. And it's not just letting him see you wake up in the morning, sans makeup, hair poking this way and that. We're talking about him seeing you at your craziest, bitchiest moment. If he could handle that part of you, hangs in there and stays interested, congrats, you've got yourself a keeper.


I know I can trust him because he has a good track record.
True/False

Correct Answer: True
The past is a really great predictor of the future. Yes, sometimes people change, but more likely than not, they are tomorrow the way they were yesterday. So keep your eye out for signs of deceit: Did he cheat on his exes? Lie about his past? Come up with empty promises? Get a grip: You'd be better off without him.


When I get upset, he withdraws. It's not that he doesn't care about how I feel. You know men, they're just not good with words.
True/False

Correct Answer: False
When a guy genuinely loves you, it matters to him that you're happy. And it matters to him that you're sad. That's because he cares about how you feel. So what if he's not good with words? He could lend you his shoulder to cry on – not distance himself when you need him most.


He may have his annoying habits, but I believe my love can change him.
True/False

Correct Answer: False
Of course, nobody is perfect. Your guy will have his share of flaws. But the idea that you're going to be able to change your guy is, well, romantic but it's not gonna happen. Try as you might, some things just cannot be changed. So before you commit to him, ask youself if his quirks are seriously bugging the crap out of you. Be honest with yourself: If you can't imagine dealing with his annoying traits for the rest of your life, he's not the one. Period.


He is the one for me because I know I will still love him even if he earns half of what he does and grows a mid-life belly.
True/False

Correct Answer: True
You know you've got a keeper if you love him for his amazing personality. Not his money or his looks. After all, isn't this what marriage vows are about: To love each other in sickness as in health, in poverty as in wealth? If you're not ready to utter these words and stick to them, then he's just not the one
