True Love or Hiberdating: SIX WAYS TO TELL THE DIFFERENCE: by srsly

Not sure if that guy is for keep or just another guy?

Not to worry. Here is a list of classic hiberdating behaviors to help you sort out if your relationship’s a keeper or just keeping you warm for the time being.

If his preferred after-sex activity is building a blanket fort…Building something—scratch that, anything—together is an awesome sign for your ability to work together. Plus, you can always do it again in the fort when you’re done. Bonus.

Verdict? True Love.

If he forgot your last name but knows your HBO GO password…
Hey, what’s in a name? As long as you both agree to re-watch Sex and City in it’s entirety, nothing else matters, right? WRONG. As Samantha would say, “His problem is: He’s an asshole!”
Verdict? Hiberdating.

If you’re not entirely sure where he goes when he leaves your apartment…
Surely he has a job, right? Maybe he hangs out with his friends—those guys you keep meaning to meet. Or maybe he goes and does one of his many hobbies, which you’ve never really heard about.
Verdict? Hiberdating.

If most of your Friday night conversations consist of which pizza place to order from …
Hey, topping choices and whether to do stuffed crust are key decisions to make after a long week. As long as you can vibe about politics, art, hobbies, or current events on other days, the ability to have a joint focus on the small stuff (like pizza) is a sign of comfort. And comfort in a relationship is key.
Verdict? True Love. 

If you watched a documentary on bears and, like, really identified with it…
Does your partner respect you the way small animals respect the mighty power of a mama Grizzly?
Verdict? True Love. 
Does he want to sleep for the next five months, living off his own body fat, emerging only after the winter thaw?
Verdict? Hiberdating.

Get the gist? Those are a few common ways to spot hiberdating in its sleepy, electric-bill-mooching tracks. Now it’s up to you whether you keep your guy close or send him out in the cold!
