39 Questions To Understand Someone
39 Questions to Understand Someone
I recently was given the following questions by a friend of mine and challenged to try them out, on someone other than him. I have to say I am curious about how this would go but I am not sure if it is something I would actually do. The thought of letting a stranger know so much about me so quickly would be something so far outside of my comfort zone. Supposedly these are questions that someone came up with after many failed dates. These questions were reportedly the reason she fell in love and got married. I wish I knew the name of the individual responsible for these questions but I do not.
1. Given the choice of anyone in the world, whom would you want as a dinner guest?
2. Would you like to be famous? In what way?
3. Before making a phone call, do you ever rehearse what you're going to say? Why?
4. What would constitute a perfect day for you?
5. When did you last sing to yourself? To someone else?
6. If you were able to live to the age of 90 and retain either the mind or body of a 30-year old for the last 60 years of your life, which would you choose?
7. Do you have a secret hunch about how you will die?
8. Name three things you and your partner appear to have in common.
9. For what in your life do you feel most grateful?
10. If you could change anything about the way you were raised, what would it be?
11. Take four minutes and tell you partner your life story in as much detail as possible.
12. If you could wake up tomorrow having gained one quality or ability, what would it be?
13. If a crystal ball could tell you the truth about yourself, your life, the future or anything else, what would you want to know?
14. Is there something that you've dreamt of doing for a long time? Why haven't you done it?
15. What is the greatest accomplishment of your life?
16. What do you value most in a friendship?
17. What is your most treasured memory?
18. What is your most terrible memory?
19. If you knew that in one year you would die
