301 Fun, Flirty & Deep Questions to ask your Partner (Sorted by category)

This list is organized by category; click here if you’d prefer the random list of questions for couples

I started this list of couple questions during the magic time when our daughter was content to hike with us in a backpack carrier (…as long as there was a steady stream of goldfish crackers).

We’d spend hours exploring the trails around our new city, but I have to admit, after a few months of quarantine together and most of my energy going into dragging my booty up a mountain …sometimes the conversation ran a bit dry 😂

This list of questions keeps us chatting, laughing, and learning about each other for hours.

We take turns answering each question and try to ask follow-up questions wherever possible.

There’s a good mixture of fun, deep, saucy, and relationship questions to keep the conversation flowing with your partner.
