What's Your Flirting Flavour?

Are you a bubbly, energetic party animal with flair? Do you make a Stat 231 class seem like it's a night on the town with Britney Spears? Take our quiz and find out.

1. There's a cute new boy in class — how do you make him feel welcome?
a) Wave to him, say hello, and blush.
b) Throw down a shot of Peach Schnapps, sashay over, and pinch his "cheeks."
c) You look over at him and tell him that you looooove the Squeeze Theorem.

2. How many guy friends do you have?
a) My calculator doesn't have enough digits in the graphical display.
b) A few really good ones.
c) Tons, but I can't remember who they are the morning after.

3. Be honest — has a friend ever accused you of flirting with her boyfriend?
a) Once. *shrug* I was sloppy.
b) Never. I have enough guys after my lap and my top as it stands.
c) No. My friends trust me.

4. Which of these things are you most likely to say to the class cutie?
a) This class is so boring. Want to look at my slide rule?
b) This class is so boring. *sigh*
c) This class is so boring. My bedroom isn't.

5. Your best friend is...
a) Female. We're like sisters.
b) Male. That's the only thing in this faculty.
c) The person buying the drinks.

6. Do you think it's weird to be touchy — feely with a guy who's not your boyfriend?
a) No way! I kiss, cuddle, and hold hands with all the guys.
b) No. A little PDA never hurt anyone.
c) Not really. I mean they touch me all the time.

7. What's your biggest frustration when it comes to boys?
a) They just don't ask me out.
b) They never shower, they fart, and they smell like pigs.
c) As the distance between us approaches zero, their rate of perspiration approaches infinity.

Now match your answers to each of the questions with the associated totals and add up the values to find out your flirting flavour:

Q a b c
1: 1 3 2
2: 2 1 3
3: 3 2 1
4: 2 1 3
5: 1 2 3
6: 3 1 2
7: 1 3 2

7–11 — Smooth and Rocky Fudge — Slick and sly, you keep the boys on their toes. Never doing the same thing twice and never being overly obvious, you don't have the boys right away, but when they come to, they'll be falling at your feet faster than rain in a hurricane.

12–16 — Sweet Cherry Pi — There's a method to the madness when you attract the boy babes. And in fact, most of the time, they're falling all over you and your common senses. You've got theorems and lemmas about the opposite sex and you put it to good use. So when he finally asks you out, you'll be ready for him.

17–21 — Rocky Road — You're out of control! You party it up with the boys, go out of your way to rock their world, and then the night gets started. He'll realize how cool you are when he loses to you at foozball. When you're on a roll, everyone had better get out of your way. Way to go!
