10 to 16 points: Mr. Mooch: If you quit doing his homework, "lendhimg" him money, and showering him with gifts, this guy probably won't stick around. So put your relationship on a more even ground. "Tell him that his behavior is making you uncomfortable," says New York City nurse-psychotherapist Anne Gallenstein. "Try and work things out that way before you consider breaking up with him."

17 to 23 points: Even Steven Sweetie: Take this one to the bank: Your guy's so not using you. When you do him a favor, like letting him copy your history notes, he's genuinely appreciative. Relationships are a give-and-take, and to be able to balance and respect each other shows signs of real maturity, says Gallenstein. "It really builds good will toward each other," she says.

24 to 30 points: Proud Puppy: If your guy forgot his lunch money, he'd rather go hungry than let you spot him the cash. Instead of getting angry or offended, try telling him that doing nice things for him makes you feel good, suggests Gallenstein. If buying him lunch doesn't work for him, show your appreciation in other ways, like burning him a CD of his favorite songs.
