How Are Your Love Standards Quiz

Love means different things to different people. Some look for aligned values and shared visions, others embrace spontaneity and the thrill of discovering love in unexpected places. There’s no “right” way to approach relationships — but understanding your love standards can help you make more fulfilling choices.

This quiz isn’t about judging whether your standards are too high or too low. It’s about understanding how you navigate love — whether you're driven by discernment, guided by openness, or finding your balance between the two.

So, how do your standards show up in your romantic life? Let’s find out.
