About the methodology
The Big Five model (Costa & McCrae, 1992) describes five core personality dimensions: extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, neuroticism, and openness to experience.
Research by Botwin, Buss & Shackelford (1997) demonstrated that partners with complementary Big Five profiles form more stable couples. Attachment theory (Bowlby, 1969; Hazan & Shaver, 1987) complements this model by linking attachment style to romantic partner choice.
We combined both approaches into one questionnaire that analyzes your emotional needs, communication style, and value priorities to determine the type of man you'll be most comfortable with.

Frequently asked questions
How does this questionnaire work?
The questionnaire analyzes your preferences across five dimensions: emotional warmth, ambition, independence, romanticism, and stability. Based on your profile, it determines the type of man who would be most harmonious for you.
How accurate are the results?
The questionnaire is based on peer-reviewed personality compatibility research. Accuracy depends on your honesty: the more sincerely you answer, the more useful the result.
Can I retake it?
Yes, you can take it anytime. Preferences change with age and experience, so retaking it after a few months may show a different result.
Is this questionnaire suitable for any age?
The questionnaire is designed for adults who are thinking about romantic relationships. The questions are neutral and not tied to a specific age.
Does the result guarantee compatibility?
The result shows a general type of man with whom you statistically have a higher chance of a harmonious relationship. Real compatibility depends on many factors, including shared goals and willingness to compromise.
How is this different from other compatibility tests?
This questionnaire combines the Big Five model and attachment theory, while most popular tests use only one approach. This provides a more complete picture of your preferences.
