All 8 types of friends

Every friend type in the quiz. Send this to the group chat and assign everyone a role.

The Mom Friend

Snacks, plasters and "text me when you're home"

You look after everyone. Your bag has painkillers, a charger and emergency snacks, you know who has not eaten today and you will not sleep until the group chat confirms everyone got home. You care loudly and practically, and your friends are lucky.

Traits: Caring · Prepared · Protective

The Therapist Friend

Open 24/7 for deep talks

People tell you things they have never told anyone. You listen without judging, ask the question that makes everything click and somehow always know what to say. Just remember: the therapist friend needs someone to talk to as well.

Traits: Empathetic · Wise · Trustworthy

The Hype Friend

Your biggest fan, at full volume

You are everyone's personal cheerleader. You hype the outfit, the new job and the slightly questionable haircut. Your comments are all caps and heart emojis, and when a friend doubts themselves, you are the first to remind them how great they are.

Traits: Encouraging · Enthusiastic · Generous

The Planner

Already made the group spreadsheet

Without you, the group would never actually do anything. You find the date that works, book the table and make the trip itinerary, with a backup plan. You are reliable and organized, and you secretly love it when everyone says "how did you do all this?"

Traits: Organized · Reliable · Proactive

The Chaos Friend

"I have an idea" (everyone panics)

Every great story your group tells starts with you. You suggest the 2 a.m. road trip, you talk to strangers and you somehow end up on stage. Plans fall apart around you, but they fall apart in the most fun way possible. Life without you would be quieter, and worse.

Traits: Spontaneous · Fearless · Fun

The Funny Friend

The group chat's main entertainment

You are why the group chat is worth checking. Perfect memes, perfect timing and an impression of everyone you know. You can make a bad day better in one message, and underneath the jokes you notice a lot more than you let on.

Traits: Witty · Observant · Uplifting

The Ride-or-Die

Will help you move. Will help you hide.

Your loyalty has no limit. You show up at 3 a.m. without asking why, you take your friends' side in every argument and you hold grudges on their behalf for years. You might not have the most friends, but the ones you have would trust you with anything.

Traits: Loyal · Fierce · Dependable

The Low-Maintenance Friend

Months apart, zero awkwardness

You and your friends can go months without talking and pick up exactly where you left off. You are relaxed, undemanding and easy to be around. You will not flood the group chat, but when you show up you are fully there, and that is exactly why people value you.

Traits: Easygoing · Independent · Steady

How the friendship quiz works

Friend groups work a bit like a sitcom cast. One person has painkillers and snacks for everyone, one gives life advice at midnight, one organizes the trip and one turns a quiet dinner into a story you will tell for years. Most people know exactly who is who, except when it comes to themselves.

This quiz asks ten everyday friendship situations, from birthday plans to group chat drama. Each answer adds points to one or two friend types, and the highest score is your role. The friend mix shows your other sides, because the planner can also be the hype friend on a good night.

It is free, takes about two minutes and works best when the whole group takes it.

Take it with your friend group

  1. Before anyone takes the quiz, assign every friend the type you think they are.
  2. Then everyone takes it on their own phone.
  3. Compare: a point for every friend whose result matched the group's prediction.
  4. If nobody predicted someone's result correctly, they get to choose the next group activity.
