About This Quiz

You don't need to be Cupid to recognize when you've been bitten by the love bug. However, how could you possibly know what will happen weeks, months or even years from now? Will someone special come along, or will someone who was once special fall from grace? You'd have to be a psychic to know that. Fortunately, we are the love fortune tellers you didn't even realize you needed. 

"Maybe true love isn't out there for me," author Roxane Gay once said, "but I can sublimate my loneliness with the notion that true love is out there for someone." French prince and author Francois de La Rochefoucauld once wrote, "True love is like ghosts, which everyone talks about and few have seen." Right now, you might be a firm believer in soul mates and happily ever afters, or maybe you'd prefer to live a solitary life free of the added pressure and drama of a relationship. However, how do you know how you'll feel years down the road?

Only this quiz can determine that. When you respond to the following questions, you'll divine your true fate in love 36 months from now. Will you be saying "I do" or dancing with your single ladies? Will you be adopting a pet or dumping your partner? Let's see what's in your cards ...
