Is it too simplistic to say that:
Sentir is followed by a Noun or que, and
Sentirse is followed by an Adjective/Adverb or como.
Now that I write it out, perhaps it's not easier to remember.

My dictionary gives "un fenómeno" - not "un fénomeno"?
1. In your "hint", you told us to "... use a pronominal verb for 'take advantage' " -
- but despite that^, in order to get a correct answer we were supposed to write: "Aprovecha la ruptura para conocerte más a ti misma" - [i.e., with 'aprovecha', a non-pronominal verb?]
("Aprovecha la ruptura ..." is of course quite consistent with the guidelines given in your lesson at Spanish verb Aprovechar vs Aprovecharse (pronominal verbs) [number 7478] ... so it is only your 'hint' which needs to be modified, not your text).

2. In your sentence: "... ya que ambos estábais sumergidos en una relación tóxica", there should not be a tilde in 'estabais'?
As you do the exercise it gives you answers by phrase or sentence. However when you get the fufll script at the end the word choices do NOT match the answers that were given earlier in the exercise.
I understand when the pronoun replace a thing use Los or Las, lo or la but the quiz is using Los to replace a miguel y a Jose. is the hing that an artricle is in front of the names
It might have been helpful to include a little more information about El monumento al Encierro. I searched broadly but even Wikipedia had nothing on it other than that "Encierro" has to do with the running of the bulls in Pamplona. However, not wishing to be defeated, after much probing I found:
El encierro es una práctica dentro de la tauromaquia que consiste en correr (dentro de una vía urbana cercada) delante de una manada no muy abundante de toros, novillos o vaquillas. Los encierros son muy populares dentro de España y América Latina, en los lugares donde se celebran Fiestas Taurinas. El Monumento al Encierro es una gran escultura del artista Jalisciense Jorge de la Peña Beltrán, que representa a siete toros y un caporal a caballo camino a la corrida donde habrán de revelar su coraje. Es una obra fundida en bronce, donde cada toro pesa por lo menos media tonelada; el caporal 1,700 kg. El monumento mide 24 metros de largo por 10.5 de ancho y tiene una altura de 6.5 metros. Su existencia es un continuo homenaje a los ganaderos aguascalentenses ya que cada toro lleva marcado el fierro de una ganadería de la zona.
¡Eso es casi suficiente para que quieras ir a verla!
can we only use "lo suyo" if it refers to something mentioned before? ie we cannot say "eso sería lo suyo" as a stand alone sentence?
Why is the present subjunctive not more correct for the following sentence? The lesson says it should be the imperfect subjunctive...but I think this is incorrect; this would require it be "you have had" rather than "you have"
"Maybe you have lots of friends in England"
