Questionnaire

The other day, a youth friend of mine posted a questionnaire on Facebook that women were supposed to ask their boyfriend/spouse and then write down their answers exactly as they were said. It was a questionnaire about the woman from the man's perspective, a very different approach. At dinner Monday, I asked Brad the questions as a conversation starter. I started giggling as he answered some of the questions. His insight into me was pretty amazing and I had never heard him say some of the things he said in his answers. It was a lot of fun. Later in the night before we were going to bed, I asked Brad to ask the same questions to me about him and again we enjoyed the responses. It was a fun batch to ask.

You will get to know each other so well over the years that aside from talking about the events of the day, you may not get into these kinds of feelings in conversations. So to have an opportunity to dig a little deeper is fun. So we thought you both might enjoy asking each other the same questions to hear what their perspective is of you. Here they are:

1. What is something your beloved always says to you?
2. What makes your beloved happy?
3. What makes your beloved sad?
4. How does your beloved make you laugh?
5. What was your beloved like as a child?
6. How old is your beloved?
