6 to 9 points: Looking for love
While at college, you are planning to meet all kinds of new people and start fresh with your love life. Good for you! College is a wonderful time in your life to start new relationships and let go of the past. Beware of breaking all ties with your past, however. Just because high school may not have been the peachiest time in your life doesn’t mean that you should leave everything—and everyone—behind. Stay in touch with your old buddies from home; you never know, maybe one of them will end up being your soul mate!

10 to 13 points: Uncommitted undergrad
Although you may have had a significant other (or, ahem, several) while in high school, you probably should break it off with them before you depart for college. Perhaps you aren’t the most committed person ever—which isn’t necessarily a bad thing when you’re still young! It just might be a better idea to spare both your feelings and the feelings of your significant other and agree to just be friends (or pen pals!) while you’re having your college adventure. Chances are, you’ll meet plenty of new people (and potential love interests) on campus.
