Just a few copied from an e-book I bought a year or two ago.


-----------------------------------


How many physical fights have you been in? Do you usually start them? Why do you fight?

Has anyone very dear to you died? How did you handle it?

What are you most fearful of? How does that fear keep you from doing things you would like to do?

Are you chirpy in the morning or are you a grouch?

How often do you think your gut feeling is correct? When can you remember that it was incorrect?

What one skill do you wish you had learned but haven't yet (Play the piano? Learn a foreign language? Fly a plane? Etc.)?

Does public speaking frighten you? Have you had much experience with it?

What sort of reaction do you have when you get very upset?

Is it ever appropriate for someone to express anger in a physical way? If so, when and how?

What is your typical reaction when someone criticizes you?

Do you think that you are able to calmly and wisely react in emergencies? What are some examples of emergencies you have had?

What feeling do you have the most difficulty controlling?

What feeling do you have the most difficulty expressing?


How would someone be able to tell if you're happy? If you're sad?

Are you an organized person?

If a fire destroyed your home and all of your belongings, what would you do? If you could take out three things before the blaze, what would they be? (Assuming there is no one in the house at the time of the fire.)

When you are sick and feeling poorly, do you like to be alone or do you like to be pampered and have someone close to your side most of the time?

If you were given $50,000 to throw a party for all of your friends, what sort of party would you put together?

Are you a morning, a night person or somewhere in the middle?

Do you think you would prefer a calm, loving, consistent marriage or one that was full of excitement, wild times and rocky patches?

Do you think you are a fairly typical man/woman in the way you think, act and believe?

Are you one who adapts to change easily? Can you cite some examples?

Do you have a child's heart sometimes? What sort of “childish” things do you think about doing?

Are you generally an optimist, pessimist or a realist?

How often do you cry? What situations often bring you to tears?
What makes you feel secure and safe?

Do you tend to analyze your decisions before you talk about them or do ideas and thoughts blurt out without much forethought?

Would you describe yourself as a peace-keeper or a trouble-maker?

What type of social gatherings do you prefer - small groups or large parties?

Do you like to be the life of the party or do you prefer intimate, one on one conversation?

Are you more of an introvert or an extrovert? Does it change depending on the crowd?

Do you tend to keep a lot of thoughts and feelings to yourself or do you share them pretty openly?

Do you ever lose your temper? How does it manifest itself?

Do you currently believe that you are mature and experienced enough to be able to build and maintain a very successful marriage? When did you feel you were ready or when do you think you will be there?

Which do you think should have the final say in decisions - logic or emotions? Why?

Do you think of yourself as mechanically inclined?

Do you enjoy hugging people? Do you like receiving hugs?

What five things have you done in your life that you are most proud of?

If I feel like I'm being interviewed instead of just being interacted with, it puts me off... I guess I'm different for thinking that it should all be spontaineous give and take...

I think if I were on a date and was asked if I considered myself mechanically inclined or what feelings I have most difficulty controlling, I would hotwire his car and drive like a bat out of hell.

Yeah Allen, you should DEFINITELY NOT ask all those all at once. The it would turn into some kind of interrogation.

A few at a time - both people giving their answers then talking about it. It's just another way of getting to know someone better.

Isn't that what life's about after all??

Guys really don't want a cue card planned scrutiny, lol. Just be yourself, and talk about what comes natural. Never, ever deny yourelf who you truly are to better prepare for a potential love interest. If a person cannot accept you for the words that come out of your mouth, then they are not the one. Just talk, you have been doing it since you were 14 months old or so, so use the skills you have learned so far. You may want to take this with a grain of salt though, cause I am still single bigsmile bigsmile
