If you’re anything like me (and if so, God help you), you approach any new 100hookup with a full and open heart, hoping that at long last, this one could be your Beshert, your soul mate. Of course, as we well know, this isn’t always the case. In fact, it’s usually not the case because soul mates, by their very definition, are something rare, special, elusive, miraculous. There’s a greater chance of Congress passing a piece of Obama legislation than your next date being your soul mate.

Still, being the optimists we are, we never cease hoping and searching. But how do we know when the person sitting across the table from us at Starbucks has that all-important soul mate potential? Honestly, we don’t. We must, then, trust our gut feelings, combined with what we can learn by taking the following multiple-choice quiz I created exclusively for you. Because you’re worth it. Or so I’ve heard. Correct me if I was misinformed.

In any case, take out your pen and prepare to respond honestly as you discover:
