❤️ What is the Couples Compatibility Test

This compatibility test for couples is a simple and quick way for you and your partner to explore how well your values, preferences, and communication styles align. Both of you answer the same set of questions independently, ensuring you can answer honestly without being judged. The results we send you will include all questions, including the mismatches, so that you can discuss them and work on differences. We will also give you a percentage of how many questions you matched on as a fun bonus. 

If you don't want to take the couples compatibility test, you can also skip ahead to the questions. 

📋 72 Questions Sorted into 9 Categories 

We came up with 72 questions organized into nine key categories—Relationship Dynamics, Trust, Lifestyle & Living, Food & Drinks, Family & Children, Career & Finances, Sex & Intimacy, Values & Worldview, and Social Life. The way we came up with these questions is by looking at studies that analyzed topics and issues most couples fight about. You can answer them all for a deep‑dive into your compatibility, or skip any you’re not comfortable with (or if 72 feels like too many). Each category explores a different dimension of your partnership, from how you handle conflict and communication to your shared vision for home life, financial priorities, and social preferences. 

🎁 The quiz is 100% Free To Take!

👉 How To Take The Compatibility Test For Couples

Click “Start Quiz” to create your personal couples link. Important: Share this link to your partner first, then click the link yourself. Be sure you both use the identical generated link—otherwise your responses won’t sync, and you won’t receive your matching results.

It is very important you answer honestly, rather than what you think your partner wants to hear. Equally important is that you put yourself into a mindset of excepting your partner's answers and committing to discussing them in an adult way.

Interpreting Your Results Together

When you review your results, remember that this couples compatibility test is meant to spark meaningful conversation—not conflict. It’s perfectly normal to see a lower match rate (most couples score between 40 % and 60 %, and anything above 60 % is fantastic), so don’t let the numbers discourage you. Instead, use any surprising or unexpected answers as an invitation to ask your partner to share their perspective: listen fully, resist the urge to interrupt or defend, and honor what they’re telling you. Focus your discussion on discovering where you can find common ground, identifying which differences you’re both willing to compromise on and where your boundaries lie, rather than assigning blame. And if you uncover deeper issues or simply want extra support, consider bringing certain results to a counselor or coach who can help you navigate and grow together.
