How to use these
conversation starters

🍷

Over dinner

Pick one question at the start of the meal. Let the conversation lead where it wants.

🚗

On a long drive

No eye contact makes some questions easier. Road trips are perfect for depth.

🛏️

Before sleep

One question each before the lights go out. This becomes a ritual you'll both love.

🚶

On a walk

Walking side by side reduces pressure. The movement helps the conversation flow.

Sunday morning

Slow morning, no agenda. Phones down. One question over coffee.
