About This Quiz

Tell those other social media platforms like Snapchat, TikTok, Facebook and Instagram to move aside, because today, we're going to focus on one of the most interesting websites around: Reddit. Filled with all kinds of hilarious usernames, mysterious subreddits and threads that have gone viral, Reddit captures the very best (and worst) of humanity. And speaking of which, we're pretty sure that you've dated someone either wonderful or horrible, and we're going to find out what they were like with this Reddit quiz!

There are many r/Relationship threads that some of us can relate to. Maybe you had the unfortunate experience of dealing with a cheating ex, or perhaps there was a stark height difference between you two. Fortunately, many of these relationship threads are "nightmare situations" that don't happen very often since most people and relationships are normal and well-behaved (well, for the most part). Nevertheless, Reddit is a fun way to draw parallels between your ex and one of these so-called "nightmare situations." So whether that thread is titled "He's Sitting 20 Feet Away" or "To Be Fair, Garlic Bread is Delicious," it's time to find out what your ex was truly like with this Reddit quiz!
