100 Best Questions To Ask Your Husband

Confession time: My husband and I have a habit when we’re out at restaurants – we’re often on our phones, caught up in Pokémon Go.

But, we attended a marriage seminar at our church where they had us pick question cards to ask our partners. Inspired by this, I went looking on Pinterest for questions that could spark engaging conversations for our date nights.

We’ve been married for over twenty-three years, and we’ve talked about a lot. So, I wasn’t sure I’d find anything new or interesting. But, to my surprise, I found some fantastic questions.

These questions were different. They made us want to put our phones down and focus on each other. It was a refreshing change!
