Love is something that most of us are raised to think is the source of our ultimate relationships in life. But the truth of the matter is that while falling in love is something that will happen for many people, it may not happen for everyone.
Although you may spend lots of time asking yourself and your friends if it will ever happen for you, if the answer is no or not yet, that's not always a bad thing. While romantic love is dreamy and has its perks (affection, companionship, and someone to bring you soup when you're sick), falling in love with someone isn't what everyone wants.
Believe it or not, there is always a choice, and being alone doesn't have to mean being miserable.
The personality test below will reveal if you're meant to find true love.
If you're curious about whether or not you're the kind of person who is destined to fall in love or the kind of person to spend your days all on your own, this optical illusion-based quiz will help you figure it all out.
All you have to do is look at the image below and pay close attention to the first thing that catches your eye. Once you've done that, scroll down to find out what this personality test reveals about if you'll ever find love.
1. If you saw the cats
If you saw the cats first when you looked at this image, you are the kind of person who has been in and out of love, but ultimately you're just plain happier when you're on your own.
You've sampled what it's like to have a romantic affair, and while it was fine, nothing recharges you, inspires you, and makes you happier than being on your own.
Get down with your bad self! If you want to be on your own, do it. Just make sure you have a big network of friends to rely on — for no woman is an island.
2. If you saw the dog
If you saw the dog first when you looked at this image, you are the kind of person who thrives and grows when you fall in love.
For you, life is hard and stressful and can seem frustrating and pointless, but it isn't. You'll see how wrong you are once you fall in love big time.
Being in a relationship helps you focus on the world in a new and different way. Being with another person makes you the best version of yourself, but that doesn't mean you aren't complete just as you are.
3. If you saw the heart
If you saw the tiny little heart first when you looked at this image, you're the kind of person who sees love everywhere they look.
You could make the big leap and be with just one person forever, but you're just as likely to find your own "big love" at a commune or working with a group of people you love.
However life plays out, you'll be happy and exactly where you need to be.
