Questions to ask your partner about the future
Big future talks can feel heavy, so most couples put them off. These questions come at the future through smaller doors: what you are looking forward to, the plan still undecided and the detail you have never really discussed. They are easier to answer and just as revealing.
Pick one and each answer it without negotiating. Write down anything you both want, so the list becomes a plan.
- What are you looking forward to doing together?
- What detail of our future have we never really discussed?
- What plan of ours do we still need to make a proper decision about?
- Would you prefer a bigger home or living closer to our friends?
- What would you study just because it interests you?
- What would you like us to try together for the first time?
- Which routine of ours would you want to keep even if our schedules changed?
- What would you arrange differently if we were moving in together today?
- Would you choose a longer trip or more frequent trips together?
- What's something you'd spend more money on right now?
- What have we said we'd do together for ages and still haven't?
- What would you like us to make more time for?
- What kind of home would you like to stay in for a weekend?
- What would you spend money on that you think I'd resist?
Questions people ask
What should couples talk about when planning their future?
Start with concrete things: where you want to live, how you want to spend money and time and what you want to try together. Specific questions are easier to answer honestly than where do you see us in five years.
