CLEAR ANSWERS TO COMMON QUESTIONS

Frequently Asked Questions

What does this quiz measure?
It assesses perceived friendship quality across mutual effort, emotional trust, and shared connection. Results provide a summary of typical patterns rather than a fixed label.
How should items be answered?
Answer based on how the relationship usually functions, not on one unusually positive or difficult event. Select the option that best matches the most common pattern.
How long does it take and how many questions are included?
It includes 15 questions and typically takes about 10 minutes to complete. Time may vary by reading speed and response style.
How should the scores be interpreted?
Scores indicate whether the relationship is more consistent with casual companionship, close friendship, or best-friend-level closeness. Interpret the result as a perspective and consider that the other person may view the relationship differently.
Can results be used to diagnose problems or make decisions?
No; the quiz is not a diagnostic tool and does not replace professional evaluation. Use results as a prompt for reflection and, when appropriate, direct discussion.

About This Assessment

Are We Friends Quiz - Symptoms and Signs

Are you casual companions, close friends, or genuine besties? This free, no-sign-up friendship quiz helps you reflect on the relationship through three areas: mutual effort, emotional trust, and shared connection. Consider how things usually work between you rather than one unusually good or difficult moment. Your scores offer perspective, not a definitive label—the other person may experience the friendship differently, and an honest conversation can reveal more than any quiz.
