Disclaimer // In my younger years of school, I always dreaded quizzes. I found it weird that a 10 question pop quiz could be used as a measurement of what I knew and didn’t. I mean c’mon, they were 10 questions. However, as I’ve gotten older I’ve found that I actually enjoy taking quizzes… well that is when the subject matter is something of interest to me. I find comfort at times that in this millennial world, a quiz (whether in the pages of Cosmopolitan magazine OR even Vogue) could give me a clearer picture on life… as it relates to dating, friendships, and all the trivial things that make up this millennial world. I mean hey! These quizzes aren’t all knowing and in no way truly dictates who/what you are, but they can be pretty fun and insightful.
That’s why in today’s post, I’ve created a relationship quiz centered around trust. Do you trust your partner? Do they make you feel safe and secure in your relationship? & in the event that you find that you don’t, trust them that is — what possible things can be done about it.
Without further ado,
QUESTION 1: If you found out that your significant other liked a picture of his/her ex, you would?

Now that you’ve reached the end of the relationship quiz, I want you babes to tally your score.
For the sake of categorization —
Score of 14 – 30 (for the most part you are pretty trusting and have complete faith in your partner) – if you fall into this category, continue doing what you’re doing. There may be some places where improvement couldn’t hurt, but for the most part you and your partner are on the right track.
Score 31 – 44 (there’s some caution here, you trust your partner at times and at times you don’t, you also may not be completely trusting of yourself) – if you fall into this category of this relationship quiz, you’re teetering bear trouble in your relationship. Talk to your partner and open up to them about the concerns you have. Those concerns may be from mistakes they have made, you have made, or both. Choose to forgive and move forward. OR let it go and work on yourself.
Score of 45 – 58 (you have no trust in your relationship and it’s in major trouble) – if you fall into this category of this relationship quiz, you might want to seriously consider making some major changes in your situation. Either ending the relationship or seeking qualified counseling, so as to get to the root of many of the issues your partner and you are facing.
