Your task, which will be quite enjoyable, is simply to get close to your partner. Best way for you to get close to your partner is for you to share with him\/her and him\/her to share with you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To quote Daniel Jones article in New York Times,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“In Mandy Len Catron\u2019s Modern Love essay, \u201cTo Fall in Love With Anyone, Do This,\u201d she refers to a study by the psychologist Arthur Aron (and others) that explores whether intimacy between two strangers can be accelerated by having them ask each other a specific series of personal questions. The 36 questions in the study are broken up into three sets, with each set intended to be more probing than the previous one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The idea is that mutual vulnerability fosters closeness. To quote the study\u2019s authors, \u201cOne key pattern associated with the development of a close relationship among peers is sustained, escalating, reciprocal, personal self-disclosure.\u201d Allowing oneself to be vulnerable with another person can be exceedingly difficult, so this exercise forces the issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The final task Ms. Catron and her friend try \u2014 staring into each other\u2019s eyes for four minutes \u2014 is less well documented, with the suggested duration ranging from two minutes to four. But Ms. Catron was unequivocal in her recommendation. \u201cTwo minutes is just enough to be terrified,\u201d she told me. \u201cFour really goes somewhere.\u201d”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As you go through, one task at a time, please don’t skip any question — do each in order. Read the question aloud, share your answer with your partner. Then let him\/her share his\/her answer to the same question with you. Alternate who reads aloud (and thus goes first) with each new question. Take plenty of time with each question, doing what it asks thoroughly and thoughtfully. You can use the same phone and give\/take the phone based on who is reading the question aloud.<\/p>\n\n\n
