Deep, meaningful questions help to spark passionate, profound conversations creating a powerful, emotional connection. By switching from traditional small talks to thought-provoking, open discussions you build a foundation for beautiful intimacy and mutual vulnerability.


If you want to learn more about another person, you need to know more than what they do for living or where they are from. You want to know their dreams, fears, values, insecurities, happy memories, relationships with friends and family, achievements, failures, how they see success, how they imagine their future, what are their goals, and many many more.


Here are some examples that will help you to get started!
