Feeling Closer to You
Trusting a New Person
36 Questions to Deepen Relationships (Part III)
Do you feel happier and closer to someone after you’ve shared some deeper, emotional truths about yourselves?

In the original research study where they made this questionnaire, strangers asked one another these 36 questions that become more and more personal as they moved down the list.
At the end, many participants felt closer to each other, and some even became friends.

And here my answers to the last 12 questions:
