About This Quiz

The number of people you've dated in the past is a pretty good indicator of how good you are with relationships. Accept it. There are, of course, exceptions. Dating is a two-way street, and you can't help it if the person you dated for maybe a week suddenly wanted to move on, and now you're back in the whole bar-eharmony-Match.com mating game. However, something's not right! Either you're doing something wrong within yourself, or you're doing something wrong with somebody else.

It is what it is, of course! That's life. Relationships are a labyrinth, and there's no telling what will come your way. One thing's for sure - you can get a good indication of a person's willingness to change or a person's likability by how many people they've dated in the past. Maybe you're just generally picky? You might have anger issues, perhaps? Who knows. The important thing to accept is that you are who you are, and eventually someone in the big ocean of fish will be your catch of the day that hopefully will last longer than a week - perhaps a lifetime! 

Until then, we're willing to bet we can guess how many people you've dated in the past, simply based on your experiences. Give it a shot! Let's see how accurate we are.
