About This Quiz

When you're trying to meet someone, you'll often get asked what your "type" is. Even if they don't use those words, most apps and dating sites essentially want to know the same thing. Do you want someone tall? Do you want an athlete? Should they be blonde? Should they make over $50,000 a year? Should they know how to play "Rainbow Six Siege" like a boss? Should they hate the same bands you hate? There are a lot of ways you can refine what kind of person you like, from the essential things like "they have to be honest" to the very trivial "they have to want to watch zombie movies with the director commentary."

It's no wonder it can be so hard to meet someone in times when we all have such a variety of expectations we want another person to meet. But in general, we can often narrow it down to a few key personality traits and physical traits that really draw us in and make us fall head over heels for someone. And we're pretty sure our matchmaking skills are so on point right now that we can figure what kind of person you're actually craving. One way to find out! Take the quiz!
