a daily reminder to grow your marriage
Paul, my sweetie, gave his Generous Husband readership 10 Question for Oldyweds and then challenged others bloggers from the CMBA to do the same.

I am a lover of questions so I had to take up the challenge (but I can’t just limit myself to oldy-weds, so these are for anytime-weds).
Ask these questions of your sweetie.
♥ What is your favorite memory of us?
♥ What one achievement are you most proud of?
♥ What would be the perfect vacation?
♥ What one small thing can I do to make your life better/easier?
♥ What would you like to save for?
♥ What are you currently struggling with?
♥ How can I pray for you?
♥ Is there someone who needs help that we could help?
♥ Where do we need to cut back or simplify?
♥ What’s been on your mind a lot lately?
♥ What personal or couple dreams have died? (Do we need to revive them or find new ones?)
OK, so that was 11 questions (I snuck one in there). I did mention I love questions.
Ask the occasional question over dinner or spend the afternoon in a private place going through them. Listen and learn.
Who questions much, shall learn much. Francis Bacon

We went on a date recently, the first one in a while. We agreed not to talk about the kids or work (we work together). But then, of course, we sat there in silence. 😉 So he googled a list of icebreaker questions and we went through those. “Tell about a time you broke a bone,” etc. These questions would be great for us.
This is a great list, but too dangerous for me. If I ask him these questions, he’ll ask me the same. And if I tell him the truth, that all of my dreams have died, he wont care at all, but he will get really angry.
That’s actually why I have no dreams anymore, because I know he has no interest in making any dreams come true except his own.
