C.  Intensely pursuing someone and then suddenly getting the ick, or ghosting when they
                   show too much interest, only to regret it later.

           6   When things start getting serious with someone, you usually:

               A.  Feel excited but anxious, looking for constant reassurance that they’re as invested as you
                   are.
               B.  Start feeling trapped or noticing flaws you hadn’t seen before, questioning if this is really
                   what you want.
               C.  Swing between intense excitement and sudden panic, perhaps creating tests or drama to
                   see if they’ll stick around.
               D.  Feel a natural progression of deepening feelings, with normal moments of uncertainty that
                   don’t derail things.

               A.  “You tend to worry too much about what your partners think and sometimes lose yourself
                   in relationships.”
               B.  “You’re really independent and sometimes we wonder if you actually want a relationship.”

               C.  “Your relationships are... intense. The highs are high and the lows are low.”
               D.  “Your relationships generally seem healthy, even the ones that didn’t work out.”

           8   When someone expresses strong feelings for you:

               A.  It feels validating and reassuring—you need to know they’re invested.
               B.  It often feels overwhelming or puts pressure on you, making you want to create some
                   distance.
               C.  Part of you craves this intensity while another part distrusts it or wants to sabotage it.

               D.  You appreciate their honesty and respond authentically, whether or not you feel the same
                   way.
