Dating Questions

Whether you're looking for dating questions to get to know your date better, or you find yourself married to someone you hardly know, asking the right questions can be the key to a successful relationship, or one that flounders and goes nowhere.

These days its important to ask the right questions before your relationship goes too far, but what do you ask and how do you do it?

How about questions like: What first attracted you to me? How has that one attraction changed since then? or
If you could live one year of your life all over again without changing a thing, what year would you choose? Why?

After you have had a few dates with someone and you think it might be going somewhere, you begin to ask more serious questions about their childhood, family, job etc.

Eventually the relationship might progress to where the really tough questions must be asked. Like "have you ever slept with someone without using a condom" or "how much debt do you have"? There is no easy way to bring up these questions.

Recently, I reveiewed a copy of Michael Webb's newest book, 1000 Questions for Couples: What you absolutely must know about the person you are with. I was blown away...You won't find a better resource for dating questions, or general relationship questions to get to know someone better.

The questions start off easy like "Has anyone dear to you died? How did you handle it?" and "About what things are you most selfish?" They slowly progress (just like your relationship should) until you get to those questions that you simply can't avoid if you are going to commit your life to living with someone. There are questions on drug addictions, abuse, child rearing, finances and lots of questions about sex. This book not only tells you what questions to ask, but how and when to ask them to make the hard questions eaier to ask.

A special bonus that I really liked was the option to get 3-5 of the book's questions emailed to me each day. That way I could forward the questions on to my sweetheart and we could each read over them and forward the answers to each other that night. I can see where this would be very valuable for those in long distance relationships.

While there are a lot of questions in this book that are crucial for couples in the dating stage, the majority of the questions are even useful for people who are already married. If you value your relationship, I urge you to ask these 1000 Questions for Couples.
