Is it love, lust, or just a crush? Let’s find out.
Are you just crushing, or are you really falling in love? This quiz helps you sort through your feelings and figure out if you’re in love, lust, or just caught up in a passing crush. Maybe you’re starting to tiptoe into something real, or you’re already so attached you can’t imagine a day without them. Or maybe the whole thing is more attraction than real connection. Love is confusing, and it can be hard to tell where you actually stand. If you’ve ever wondered what your heart really wants, this quiz is here to help you sort it out.
Love comes with patterns that are easy to miss when you’re in the middle of them. This quiz figures out your emotional instincts, your attachment style, and the way you handle vulnerability, longing, fear, and commitment. It looks at the difference between chemistry and connection, and the small behaviors that reveal if your feelings are growing into something deeper. If you’re ready to understand your own heart with more clarity, take this love quiz and see what your answer reveals.

This isn’t just butterflies, it’s a whole swarm and then some. You feel safe with them, yet constantly excited, like you can’t get enough. They’re in your head when you wake up, and the last thought before you sleep. Messy or not, this is the real thing. There's no doubt about it. You're in love!
It’s not a full free-fall yet, but you’re definitely dipping your toe into love. You probably get little rushes of adrenaline when they text, and your brain lights up when you think about them. Give it more time and this could easily tip into full blown love. You're on your way there!
You like them, and it’s fun, but it hasn’t cracked into what we call "love" just yet. You might daydream about them, and you probably enjoy the sparks. But you still need time for you feelings to grow. At this stage, a crush can easily grow into something more or fade away. It's all up to you and them, and the choices you make!
This one’s pure chemistry. You can’t stop staring at them, maybe can’t keep your hands off, and they probably light your inner fire. But they don't anchor you emotionally. There is not necessarily anything wrong with that, but don't confuse lust for love.
You might care about them, or maybe you just like the idea of them, but this isn't love. You’re not losing sleep or rewriting your schedule for them. Sometimes that’s actually a good thing though. Love can’t be forced, and sometimes it isn't right. If you think this person could be right for you, it's going to take some work to form a love connection. Otherwise, this may be a time to let go.
