Even after years together, there can be parts of your partner you don’t really know.

In a long-term relationship, it’s easy to get so used to each other that we stop being curious. 

We assume we know what our partner thinks, what they need, what bothers them, even how they feel about us.

But your partner may be carrying a hurt you didn’t realize was still there. 

There may be something they wish you understood better about them, or a way they’ve been wanting to feel more loved or appreciated.

That’s why I love these three questions.

Just know that if you ask them, you have to be willing to hear the answers.

You may feel surprised. You may want to defend yourself or explain what you meant. Try not to. Stay curious instead.

Because sometimes the conversation that feels a little uncomfortable is exactly the one that helps you understand each other better.

Which of these three would be hardest for you to ask your partner? ♥️
