What this am I boy crazy quiz measures
This am I boy crazy quiz estimates how often romantic fixation patterns show up in your dating life. Twenty original frequency items group into four domains inspired by limerence research from Dorothy Tennov and attachment closeness work from Cindy Hazan and Phillip Shaver: crush preoccupation, dating hunger, social romance focus, and balanced identity. Each item also maps to a fear-of-intimacy stack layer so you can see whether vulnerability pull-back, trust hesitation, self-disclosure limits, or closeness anxiety rides alongside fixation most. Your romantic fixation index averages these signals into a 0 to 100 score where higher numbers mean more boy-crazy pattern endorsement.
Crush preoccupation
Mental loops, lost focus, sign scanning, panic when texts lag, and fantasy about barely known boys.
Dating hunger
Restlessness when single, dating to avoid loneliness, label-as-proof thinking, and quick crush hopping.
Social romance focus
Social media checking, boy-hunting hangouts, friend comparison, and dating talk dominating groups.
Balanced identity
Hobbies without crushes, okay alone time, strong friendships, values beyond attention, and slow-burn attraction.

What your romantic fixation result means
Your romantic fixation index is the normalized total across all 20 items on a 0 to 100 scale. Higher scores mean more frequent endorsement of crush preoccupation, dating hunger, social romance focus, and limited balanced identity items on this screener. Domain bars show endorsement rates so you can see whether mental loops, single restlessness, social comparison, or low non-romantic identity drives your result most. The fear-of-intimacy stack chart shows parallel layers for vulnerability pull-back, trust hesitation, self-disclosure limits, and closeness anxiety while you chase romance.
| Band | Index range | Typical reading |
|---|---|---|
| Lower Romantic Fixation | 0 to 35 | Fewer boy-crazy signals; normal crushes and wanting a partner can still score here |
| Mixed Romantic Fixation | 36 to 65 | Blend of healthy interest and fixation habits; worth slowing pace and naming patterns |
| Higher Romantic Fixation | 66 to 100 | Frequent crush loops, dating hunger, or social comparison; support or single time may help |

Crush loops, dating hunger, and social comparison
Boy crazy entered everyday language as shorthand for feeling swept up by boys, crushes, or relationship status more than you planned. Psychologist Dorothy Tennov studied limerence, the intense mental focus on one person, while Cindy Hazan and Phillip Shaver mapped how people seek closeness when stressed or lonely. Those findings help explain why boy crazy is not always shallow: sometimes desire is real while comparison, social media checking, and single restlessness still run underneath.
The Quiz Hub built this am I boy crazy quiz as an original self-report screener inspired by those themes plus FOIS-style intimacy avoidance layers, not a reproduction of any single published instrument. Readers often compare it to sibling tools on this site. Our am I desperate for love quiz screens attachment urgency across dating in general. The am I too obsessed with my boyfriend quiz measures fixation on one partner rather than boys in general. The fear of intimacy quiz maps vulnerability pull-back across closeness, not crush frequency.
| The Quiz Hub test | What it adds |
|---|---|
| Am I desperate for love quiz | Attachment urgency index, not social comparison or crush-loop frequency |
| Am I too obsessed with my boyfriend quiz | Partner-specific obsession index, not general boy-crazy patterns |
| Fear of intimacy quiz | General intimacy avoidance across vulnerability and trust, not fixation habits |
| Am I clingy quiz | Proximity pressure and contact overload in relationships, not crush preoccupation |
| Do I have a crush on my friend quiz | Friend-zone attraction signals for one person, not general dating hunger |
| This am I boy crazy quiz | Romantic fixation index plus fear-of-intimacy stack for crush loops, hunger, comparison, and identity balance |
Sample item types include frequency ratings such as whether you check a boy's social media for clues about who he is dating, or whether you enjoy hobbies without needing a crush involved. High crush preoccupation with high dating hunger often lands in Mixed or Higher Romantic Fixation. Enjoying single time with strong friendships can score in Lower Romantic Fixation even during an active crush.
