It is possible you have heard it said many times that you can never completely know someone.

I pride myself to be one of the most self-aware people I have met and even I do things that do sometimes shock me.

I started by saying all these because some people might be wondering about the topic. They might be saying, “How can someone be your spouse if you don’t know them?”

I do agree that there is a level of knowledge you should have about your spouse before you even think of getting married to them.

However, there is so much more you will need to learn about them and definitely still learn about them in marriage.

This is the person you want to share your life with forever, so I would assume that you would want to know everything there is to know about them. I know I do.

How can you achieve that? You can achieve it by taking the initiative to ask them deep questions that will get them to open up more to you.

What are the deep questions to ask your spouse if you want to know them better?
