Pull this list out whenever you want to have a good conversation… we think you’ll be incredibly surprised by how close these questions will bring you together!

If you flash back 3 years and found us out on a date night, you would probably see a lot of arguing, making small talk, or us being glued to our phones.Įventually, we realized that we needed to invoke a better, deeper form of conversation if we wanted to grow closer.
