About This Quiz

Humans are filled with life goals that will bring them happiness and purpose. Some of these goals include becoming rich, living in a beautiful house and landing that dream job that you've always wanted. These are all wonderful things, but for other people, their life goal is to find their soulmate, otherwise known as "the one." But who exactly is this special someone, and where are they hiding?

They may be someone that you know at work, or maybe, you just haven't met them yet. That's because we don't really know who "the one" is until we're dating them. And sometimes, it takes years before you realize that your significant other is your true soulmate. A soulmate is someone that you feel a deep and intimate connection to. You may not always agree with them or be 100% happy in the relationship, but they become a person that you want to stay with no matter what. You accept their flaws and who they are as a person, because at the end of the day, that's what true love is all about. But how many relationships will it take for you to find this special someone? Whether it's two, four or eight, it's time for you to find out by taking our loving quiz!
