About This Quiz

They say all's fair in love and war, but what they mean is that both love and war can be very unfair indeed. People with lousy characters sometimes draw girls like flies, while much smarter and kinder people get ignored. Some people think that's because looks are all that matter in the dating game, but that's simply not true. A good personality, excellent grooming, an engaging conversational style and a cute dog can all improve your appeal considerably. So can letting go of negative habits, such as speaking negatively about women, going on political rants or complaining about your ex. 

Want to know whether your habits are turning girls on or off? That's what this quiz is all about! We're going to ask you about your fashion, dating app behavior, facial hair and more. By telling the truth about how you talk to women you're not attracted to or handle rejection, you'll help us diagnose whether your behavior impresses the women you meet or prevents them from seeing how great you actually are.

Are you ready to find out whether you're a girl magnet or a girl repellent? Come on; you know you want to! So hit pause on whatever you're doing and play this quiz!

Wrinkled shirts: are they okay to wear in public or nah?
Absolutely not!
No, unless you're doing chores in the yard.

Asking questions

Think back to your most recent date. Did you ask her any questions about herself?
I asked her a ton of questions! She was a fascinating person with lots of good stories.
I asked her a few generic questions about her job, living situation, etc.
Well ... I asked her what she wanted to order, lol.
No. I focused on impressing her. Isn't that what you're supposed to do on dates?

Not usually, although I might by accident.
