Test Question: After you get married, you and your spouse plan to split the household chores. If you got first pick, which of the four chores would you choose?

A: Cleaning the kitchen and bathroom

If you chose this, you’re very family‑oriented. Perhaps because you didn’t feel much warmth growing up, you cherish married life and treat your spouse and children with great care, creating a warm, harmonious home. Having fully embraced the joy of marriage, you’re unlikely to be swayed by outside temptations. No matter how much someone flatters or pursues you, you remain grounded. To you, nothing matters more than a stable family.

B: Washing dishes

People who choose this option may not be idealistic, but they’re pragmatic. In marriage, you don’t feel entirely confident about your ability to resist temptation. You might get a little flutter when you meet someone attractive, but you tend to keep it in the realm of daydreams—you may imagine it, but you don’t act on it.

C: Cleaning the floors

If you chose this, you have strong self‑discipline. Even with outside temptations, you manage yourself well. While your thoughts may occasionally wander, you wouldn’t take it any further. For you, marriage is a responsibility and a lifelong commitment to your spouse; once you choose it, you’re determined to see it through.

D: Taking out the trash

If you chose this, resisting temptation isn’t your strong suit. You enjoy feeling desired even after marriage and may not have planned to turn that attention away. Your decision to marry may have been impulsive, shaped by an idealized picture of life with a good partner. Once married, you realized reality didn’t match the fantasy, and you may act carelessly about fidelity.
