Tired of the Talking Stage? This One's for You.
Are You and Bae on the Road to a Relationship?

You’ve been crushing on the class prez ever since you collabed on that legendary lab report last year, but you haven’t quite made it past the “just friends” phase…yet. So we put together some crucial Q’s to help you decide if they’re down to date—or dragging their feet. There’s only one way to find out…

1. First things first: Have they *officially* confessed their feelings to you?

A. Yes. They made their move at your bestie’s July Fourth bonfire and asked you (over s’mores, swoon) to a solo skate date.

B. Sort of. Between your endless texts and weeks-long Snap streak, you’re pretty sure you caught the more than-friends vibe.

C. Not quite…but they did tell you they aren’t talking to anybody else, which is basically the same thing.

D. Nope. You don’t get much one-on-one time outside of class—and even then, they’re always surrounded by their squad.

2. What word best describes your recent text convos?

A. Consistent. Whether it’s playlist recs or five-minute recipes, you and bae never run out of topics to talk about.

B. Cute. They’re always dropping the heart-eyes emoji and hyping up your latest photo dump on Instagram.

C. Chill. You don’t chat every day, but when you do, it’s usually study guide swaps and TikToks.
