Results
Mostly A’s:
Your relationship is like Anne and Gilbert’s (Anne of Green Gables)
You will have a rough start to your relationship, but it will soon blossom into something beautiful. You and your beau will make each other better people, and everyone will comment on how perfect you are for each other.
Mostly B’s:
Your relationship is like Dorothea and Will’s (Middlemarch)
You’ll have some obstacles to overcome because not everyone will approve of your relationship. However, your love will be quiet but smoldering, and you’ll be willing to make great sacrifices to be with lover.
Mostly C’s:
Your relationship is like Romeo and Juliet’s (Romeo and Juliet)
Your relationship will be short, but it will burn brightly. Your passion will inspire others.
Mostly D’s:
Your relationship is like Caroline and Robert’s (Shirley)
Your relationship will start out slowly because one of you will not initially see how right you are for each other. However, once you are together, it will be quite sweet and your home will be harmonious.
My answers are pretty split, but with three C’s – whoo, Romeo and Juliet! Sounds about right, given my previous relationship 😛

I had a three-way tie with A, B, and D and I was really relieved when I saw I didn’t end up with Romeo and Juliet! I’m not sure how I feel about that one being an option! 😛

It has to be an option! How can I write a literary love story quiz without Romeo and Juliet? I just put a positive spin on the result, instead of saying, “Your love will end in death. Hope it’s good while it lasts.” 😉

I got D! 😀 Which sounds about right. It wasn’t “OMG LET’S GET TOGETHER RIGHT NOW” for my boyfriend and I, but it grew into something awesome and sweet now.
This is such a cute quiz!

Well, this was fun! I got Dorothea and Will; and while my husband and I didn’t have too many obstacles to overcome, the “quiet but smouldering” description is rather apt. 🙂 (And your description of Shirley makes me want to read that CB novel . . . )

One of my professors described Shirley as “the most romantic of Bronte’s books,” and I think she might be right!
