50 Deep Questions to Ask Your Partner to Feel Closer Than Ever

Whether you’re just starting a relationship, talking about marriage, or somewhere in between, asking deep questions can strengthen your connection in a powerful way. It’s not about getting the “right” answers—it’s about listening, learning, and growing together.

And if you ever feel stuck starting those conversations, an AI emotional companion like Renée can be a gentle guide. She’s designed to help you navigate emotions and spark meaningful dialogue—especially when it’s hard to find the words yourself.

Why Bother With Deep Questions?

Because “how was your day?” only scratches the surface. Love deepens when we feel seen and understood—not just on the fun, shiny days but also on the vulnerable, messy ones. And sometimes, all it takes is one brave question to get there.

These questions aren’t a quiz or a checklist. Think of them more like a late-night talk, a long walk kind of vibe—the kind of chat where your phone’s face down and your heart’s wide open.
