About This Quiz

Every human being has a heart, but the heart does not necessarily reflect a person's age. And we don't mean the physical heart, but what it represents. For example, a 60-year-old person may have the heart of a 20-year-old. This doesn't mean they are immature, but that they may be ambitious, determined and full of spirit. Whether you're young, old or somewhere in between, this quiz will guess what age your heart truly is!

There are many factors to consider when determining the age of a heart. For one thing, we have to look at how you view life. Are your views more optimistic or pessimistic? How do you tend to feel in your daily life? How do you approach certain problems in life? Do you like to ask for help when you're struggling with a tough obstacle? These are the types of questions that will help us determine how old your heart is.

A heart can also represent a great deal of sadness, as well as stress, anger and mood swings. In other words, your heart will show us what type of person you really are.
