80 Questions To Ask If You Crave Deep Conversation

If you are anything like me, you love deep conversations. Deep conversations allow us to get to know someone beyond the surface level. People also tend to appreciate deep conversations. I know that I always appreciate and enjoy answering difficult and thought-provoking questions that make me really reflect on my past and the person I want to be.

I tend to ask these questions just out of habit and pure curiosity right after meeting someone. Sometimes I get so lost into a conversation that I forget about boundaries.

So, if you are trying to cross boundaries and really want to get to know someone, I have some questions ready for you covering topics from just getting to know someone, trying to better understand their character, how they are romantically and showing interest in their dreams and aspirations.
