A few months ago I had dinner with my friends JR, Ben, and his girlfriend Deena.
It started off as an ordinary dinner.
We cooked some delicious ribs, macaroni-n-cheese, collard greens, and rice.
We drank some nice Malbec wine.
We skinny dipped in the pool. Yeah, another usual night.
But then something happened… we all got to know each other way more than we have in MONTHS.
It felt so nice to be even better connected to the people who I’ve known for so long. #friendsaregreat
So what happened?
Friend Questions. (This was originated by Justin Mares, thanks JM!)
These are 50 questions that get past the surface and help you ask things that get you to really know someone.
Here are a few of my favorites:
- What’s left on your bucket list?
- What’s your recurring nightmare?
- What was your first screen name?
You can see the rest of them here.
I’ve been using these with different groups of people and loving the conversations these questions spark up. Hope you enjoy them as much as I have.

Hey Noah –
You mentioned your friend JR on one of your podcasts. You said he was interested in making small documentaries for restaurants. I’d love to connect with him as I’ve thought of doing something similar as a side hustle. How do I find him?
Thanks,
Jonny D
A friend told me about these last month, and I’ve used them multiple times since! Merci.
