These 7 Relationship Quizzes Do More Than Just Make A Prediction
We all remember those relationship and friendship quizzes plastered throughout the pages of Seventeen and Tiger Beat, probably in between a life size poster of One Direction and the “best dressed” of the 2000s (Spoiler alert: it was no one.). These quizzes have gotten a major upgrade since their Y2K beginnings thanks to the help of clinical researchers and IRL experts. Even though you still may be “girlfriend material” for Zac Efron, we gathered up a few more quizzes that were made for your newfound adulthood.
We love a good quiz (or two, or three) and these are the ones worth taking for accurate, digestible results.

Each person has a unique attachment style that informs how you relate to intimacy, so figuring this out can be super helpful to growing in your relationships.
