3. If you were going to become a close friend with your partner, please share what would be important for him or her to know.

9. If you were to die this evening with no opportunity to communicate with anyone, what would you most regret not having told someone? Why haven’t you told them yet?

11. Of all the people in your family, whose death would you find most disturbing? Why?


12. Share a personal problem and ask your partner’s advice on how he or she might handle it. Also, ask your partner to reflect back to you how you seem to be feeling about the problem you have chosen.
