Better ways to start a conversation than “what do you work with?”. Better ways to get to know the person. Better ways to explore her relation with the world.
- “What is the center of your beliefs?”
- “What was the biggest pain you ever felt?”
- “Describe your first sexual feeling towards a person”
- “What book has changed your life?”
- “When did you feel like a tiny litlle insignificant part of the universe?”
- “What is the bottom of the moral scale?”
- “What eases your mind when you are afraid?”
- “Who on your family did you want to be different from?”
- “What do you rely on?”
- “Relate me a childhood memory — one where you cried, or lied, or failed.”
But what matters is “How does she react when posed those questions?”

Anyway, hope you liked!
