Collegian Compatibility Quiz

February 9, 2023
Ben Griffin

So You Know You’re Definitely Good for the Long Haul Definitely

Ben Griffin

The Collegian is once again striding confidently into the insecurities of your personal life to prepare you for the highest consequence day of the year. 

Every February 14, humans begin considering questions of love, like, what is love? Why do we sing about love so much? Is love the answer to everything? If so, why isn’t it the answer to Wordle? We also begin thinking about who we love, and whether that love was built to last or built to blast your heart into 10,000 pieces.  

My guess is that you’re compatible with your significant other. Or ARE you? There are but a few finicky paths to knowing your true compatibility. One option is couples’ spinning classes, but this quiz is a lot easier, and you don’t have to recline on deceptively hard micro-seats.  

To use this quiz most effectively, answer the questions for yourself, then have your significant other answer the questions as well. You are compatible with your significant others if you answer between 11-15 questions the same. Score any less and you can’t hope to understand each other, any more, you can’t stand each other.
