Everyone is obsessed with “compatibility” when it comes to finding love. Personality tests, horoscopes and astrology are not only giving people something to learn and believe about themselves, but provide a glimpse into why others act the way they do, too. So kewl, right?
So whether you’re single, looking for love, in a committed relationship, engaged or just straight up curious about how compatible you are with your significant other, try taking these personality tests to learn more about the ‘’connection’’ you have.

Developed by NASA rocket scientist Rashied Amini, Nanaya goes deeper into things – like how you approach single life, what romantic relationship types work best for you, and even which locations statistically have the most compatible people for you.

If you have things you’ve wanted to try in bed – even just minor preferences – this is a great way to talk about them without having a formal sex conversation with your *shy* partner.

5. The XConfession App
Similar to Spicer, feminist adult-film director Erika Lust’s app is basically Tinder for sexual acts – although it specifically focuses on kinks and fantasies. And again, you only see what you both swiped right on, which creates a safe place to discuss what you’re both interested in trying.
