Are you compatible with your cookie? Do you dream of curling up with a glass of milk and the perfect cookie? Then take this 13 question quiz, and you'll be on your way to "happily ever after" in minutes!
1. General Appearance Lets face it, looks matter. You can't possibly form a long-term relationship with the perfect cookie if you are not attracted to it in the first place. Choose which cookie gets you "hot under the collar". Crisp and crunchy. This cookie is always well put together in a tidy fashion, and never leaves the house without a glass of milk. Soft and chewy. This average cookie is not overly good looking or bad looking. Middle of the road describes this cookie best. Rich, gooey and decadent. This bedazzling cookie turns the eye of everyone it passes on the street. It oozes passion and self-indulgence.
2. Physique We're all attracted to a particular "body type". Admit it, a nice form is attractive. What shape attracts you most? Thin, small and trim. These good-looking cookies are reliably slim and elegant. Average and round but firm. When the clothes come off, these cookies can surprise you with a toned and well formed flavor that never overwhelms. Square and thick. The more there is to love, the better. Luscious and chunky and filled with ooey-gooey goodness.
3. Ability To Handle Stress When it comes to relationships, every couple goes through times of stress and frustration. It's how you handle that stress as a couple that will determine the strength of your relationship. What do you expect from a cookie during times like these? I like a cookie that can handle my mood swings. I don't usually eat many, and prefer many different flavors anyway. So my cookie has to be very flexible. I like a cookies that helps me think things through. It should have some chew, but not have an overly distracting flavor either. I love cookies, but they should know their place when I am stressed and working through things. I just need a good cookie to snuggle up to. Lots of sugary sweetness hits the spot when I'm stressed. I want a cookie that can help me forget my problems.
4. Energy Level Creating the perfect relationship means that your cookie should be able to keep the same pace you do in life. You can't match a couch-potato cookie with a marathon-running cookie and expect it to work out. Eventually, you'll tire of each other. I like a high energy cookie. Naturally sweetened with whole grains and less fat would be perfect for me. An average cookie is best. To much energy wears me out, but I don't want a couch-potato cookie either. I like a cookie who can take it's time. Slow and easy is the way I approach life, and so should my cookie.
5. Health Couples can sometimes have different views when it comes to health matters. It's a good idea to try and find a cookie that meets your concerns in this department. My cookie should be health-minded. Whether its whole grain goodness, or a little natural sweetness, a low fat and well maintained cookie is for me. My cookie shouldn't be a total health nut, but I don't want a complete death trap either. A cookie should be a cookie without being to extreme one way or the other. My cookie isn't concerned with health in any form. It knows it's purpose is to supply me with nothing but self-indulgence, and it delivers every time.
6. Sleep Habits Let's face it, when you're sleeping, it helps if the cookie you share your bed with has a similar sleep pattern to yours. What's your sleepy-time preference? I don't sleep much. So when I do, my cookie better let me sleep. Nothing to heavy for me. I'm an average sleeper. As long as my cookie doesn't snore to loudly, I can pretty much sleep comfortably any time, anywhere. My cookie should fill me up, but not sit in my tummy like a ton of bricks either. If I could sleep for weeks at a time, I would. A full tummy makes me even sleepier. I probably snore, so my cookie shouldn't be bothered by that. I love a nice and heavy cookie that lets me sleep, sleep, sleep.
7. In The Bedroom Admit it, what's the point of a relationship, if things aren't compatible in the bedroom? Be honest here, what do you look for when eating cookies in bed? My cookie should be tidy. I don't like crumbs in my bed, and I don't care for any cookie-eating evidence being left behind. My cookie should be passionately tasty, but still well balanced. Crumbs are okay, as long as they don't leave any permanent evidence of my late night cookie tryst behind. My cookie should have stamina like I do. I don't mind crumbs in my sheets. It just needs to be an immensely satisfying cookie.
8. Money Matters On average, more than half of all relationship separations occur due to problems with money. Compatibility in this department is essential. You and your cookie have to see eye to eye when it comes to dishing out the Ben Franklins. I spend money often, but not usually on cookies. When I do, they tend to go stale in my pantry because I don't get to them fast enough. I buy cookies when the mood strikes. I don't get the cheapest or the most expensive. Cookies are one of the main food groups. I'm willing to spend lots of money on my cookies. The more I spend, the better they are.
9. Relationships The way we handle relationships in general says a lot about how we manage our relationships with our cookies. How do you view relationships? I find them difficult to maintain/sustain. I like many different flavors, and never seem to settle down with just one. I value my relationships, but I tend to be very judgmental of them. My cookie shouldn't be to flamboyant, or to simple. I am trustworthy, and a great friend. My relationships are of extreme importance. I tend to be "clingy", and monogamy comes easily for me. When I find a cookie I love, I tend to stick with it indefinitely.
10. Appetite Believe it or not, your appetite says a lot about you. It can also be a good indicator of what you are like in a relationship. What is your appetite like? Low. I have to remind myself to eat. This is why my favorite cookies sometimes go stale in the pantry. Moderate. I don't like to under eat or over eat. I enjoy my cookies, but don't eat more than I should. Very high. I'm always eating. The more cookies I can get my hands on, the better!
11. Fashion The way you dress is important. It tells the world at large what you are about. Even for those who don't care about conventional fashion, the way you dress can make an impact on your relationship. How do you expect your perfect cookie to be dressed? Clean and simple, yet elegant or dapper. Excess is a waste of my time. Less is more. Everything in moderation. A little effort in appearance goes a long way. While I don't like a cookie that is overdone, I don't like one that is plain, either. The more a cookie is dressed up, the better. I love excess in my cookies, always have, always will.
12. Children If you have children, the decision to share your cookie with your children can be a difficult one. Do you wait to introduce your favorite cookie to them or do you dive in head first and introduce them? It's best not to introduce them to my favorite cookie. The truth is, I just can't stay with one cookie long enough to make the introduction worthwhile. If enough time has passed, and I feel confident my kids can handle the introduction, then I will go ahead and introduce my favorite cookie to my kids. I don't mind introducing them. We're all one big happy family anyway. Why prolong the introduction when the enjoyment of this relationship can be such a fantastic experience?
13. Hobbies In a relationship, it's important to share some of the same hobbies and fun activities together. So it's a good idea to make sure that as a couple, you will be compatible in this department. I constantly move from one activity to the next. The more action the better, so I need a cookie that can keep up. It should travel well, and not be offended when I try other cookies or activities. I enjoy both indoor and outdoor activities. My cookie should be well balanced, travel well, but also be happy just sitting on a plate at home. I'm a homebody, so my cookie needs to be a homebody to. I enjoy spending time in front of the TV, so my cookie should be willing to snuggle up and satisfy.
