Getting to know you Questions

You know that point in the relationship where you are talking to the other person a lot. You spend hours and hours on the phone and you don't care. You will spend every free minute that you have on the phone.

You end up with a $100.00 bill for just the text messages that you sent. Thats write I sent over 1000 text messages one month. I read some where that some kid had been clinically diagnosed with having a txt msg addiction because he sent over 700 messages in one month. That kid does not know the meaning of addiction.


Wow what can I say. Well anyway back to conversations.


Well when you are trying to get to know the other person you will undoubtlay ask a lot of questions. It can be a fun way on how to know each other. The only problem is... What kind of questions to ask. So this is the game that I think would be a lot of fun when trying to know someone... Here are the rules...

01. Question can not be a "yes or no" or an "either/or" question.
02. Question should open ended in order to stimulate conversation.
03. No copying the question. ie. “Same question to you.”
-- Note this does not mean that the questioner can not answer their own question after the answer was given but that does not count as a new question being asked.
04. A question shall not be repeated unless the person being asked does not remember their previous answer.
05. Questions must be made in an attempt to learn more about the person in question so do not ask what happened in yesterdays episode of "Will and Grace" or the weather.
06. The asking of questions should go back and forth, so that the last person to answer should be the next person asking regardless of a temporary break in conversation. ie. Sleep.
07. A question is a question and your question can not be substituted for something else.
