Meh. You were staying in the relationship because your ex had a free trial of Netflix and you both liked The Walking Dead. You weren't really that into him and were probably going to dump him after season four anyway.

Mostly B's

The breakup saddened you, but you understand that love hurts. You've got good friends to support you and you're going to be ok.

Mostly C's

You are Adele. The world may forgive your stalker tendencies if, like the famous chanteuse, you have a stunningly beautiful face and voice. However, if your looks are mangled and you sing like Gollom barfing into a slide whistle, expect a restraining order post-haste.
