Psychologist Dr Arthur Aron devised a series of 36 specific questions intended to be asked by each person to their partner. The questions begin rather tamely, and progressively get deeper and more personal. It can be difficult to open up to a person, especially a stranger, this experience forces both parties to open up and become vulnerable with one another.

The original study had a very interesting outcome. A man and woman, both complete strangers at the time entered a room separately. Both took part asking and answering a series of questions, ending the experiment by staring silently into each other's eyes for four minutes. The outcome? Six months later, the two participants were married!


Since this study, the 36 Questions quiz has had a global reception, appearing in The New York Times, and also featuring on popular television programmes such as The Big Bang Theory.

Now you can take on this experiment at home! To play the quiz with your partner (or crush!), you really don't need anything more than this app. Sit opposite your partner with your device between you. Take turns reading one question aloud to each other, then both of you answer. Simple, but exciting!

There is no time limit, giving you both time to be as be honest and truthful as possible. The final recommended task is to stare silently into your partner's eyes for four minutes. Nervous yet?
